The way I do it is the way it was done lone ago.
That is I went to an old tiki joint, more like many old tiki
joints and looked to see how they did it.
Then I was lucky enough to find/ buy real old float style lights from
the Kahiki.

I've never seen the big canopy thing on the old float style lights
in the old joints.
Or clips of any kind really.

Just tie the cord into the net and let it hang down, this way you don't see any
clips or well anything, the net hides the cord.

The Kahiki lights were not tied in as well as I do even, they just got some wire and
kinda just rigged it in there.
It was really Ricky but it could not be seen from the ground.
"Look ma no clips"
See how the cord goes up through the center rope that is wrapped around it.
Then out the top of the hanging loop.

The canopy thing would be good for outside lights though.
