Just because you put a GFI in the box does not make it safe to use outside, FYI (outdoor christmas lighting would be a bad idea). Depending on where you plug that cord in you potentially have a fire/electrocution hazard because that is not an IP-weatherproof enclosure, it is METAL, and the GFI only protects things plugged into the box (not the box itself)
Yes, I am an electrician.
