How do you attach Christmas lights to the house?

I know this may be a stupid question, but this is our first year in a house, so I'm clueless.
Our house is stucco, so how the heck am I supposed to attach lights?

We have clips I think we got them in walmart that go on the gutters.

We don't have gutters along the front of the house (actually, I'm not sure where they are!)
Maybe there's a way to clip the lights on anyway somehow....

ETA: what do you do if the strand of lights is too long?

We use the clips in the space between the brick front of our house and the overhang from the roof or on the gutters - they don't work very well in my opinion - ours never seem nice and straight. I wishe we had bushes in front we could just put the lights on.

If the strands are too long I leave it in a little pile on the side of the house.

We use clips that attach to the gutters. We usually do the icicle lights.
