Lighting Up My Backyard

I have solar lights for my backyard thanks to birthday gifts from my parents and my sister. My goal for the summer is to have the backyard lit up w/soft light. Problem is that I don’t know the best way to put them up. I have a deck and a fence and I was thinking that I would put them on the fence, but I really want them up high. I don’t want it to look like Christmas lights. What are your suggestions? Have you done this?

Here are some ideas from Pinterest, but is this really as easy as they say?
