Christmas Tree Trimming And Lights Galore!

Shine On

The number of Christmas tree lights used when decorating the Christmas tree varies from family to family. Some prefer a lot of lights on their tree, while others prefer fewer. As a rule of thumb, most people use 100 lights per foot of tree. For example, if the tree is seven feet tall, then you will want to put about 700 Christmas tree lights on the tree. Give or take 50 lights depending on what you like best.

Another dilemma for Christmas tree decorators is the color of lights. This is again, a matter of personal preference. Some people like the classy look of plain white Christmas tree lights, while others like the colored or multi colored lights. Personal preference and family tradition should play a role in this choice.

While for a long time Christmas tree lights came only in the inch long egg shaped bulb, there are now a variety of shapes and sizes. Mini lights are now available, as are lights shapes like snowmen, stars, and Santa Claus. Bubble lights, which are small lights encased in a base, are also popular. These lights are placed above a tube of colored liquid, and when the lights are turned on a bubbly effect occurs.

New And Technologically Improved

New technology has made Christmas tree lights even better than they were before! Now, LED lights are available to consumers. These use much less energy and are more environmentally friendly.

Another option made available by technology is lights with special effects—flashing lights, twinkling lights, fade in fade out lights, and patterns. Small computer chips and special bulbs make lights like these possible.

Simply Splendid

The lights that you put on the Christmas tree may not seem like an important decision, but it can dramatically change the appearance of the tree and define new and old traditions for the entire family.
