Another +1 for Twinkly. I don't own them but a close friend does. And to say they are impressive is an understatement. You just wrap them like you do normally and the software is smart enough to map each light's physical location.

I truly appreciate the zen nature of unfolding it into an appealingly broken pattern and also having just a single ornament.
