Christmas lights are a major part of the Christmas celebration. A wide variety of lights are used to decorate homes, streets, trees and public places during the Christmas season. Often called festive lights, these lights add glamour and sparkle to the holiday season. Christmas lights come in many shapes and sizes. From tiny strings of mini lights to large bulb lights, there are lights to fit nearly every décor. Some lights blink, some twinkle, and others remain constant. Different designs shaped in stars, snowflakes, candy canes and even snowmen provide fun and creative ways to light up the holiday season. Some lights are even different colors that give off an even more festive look. Lights can also be used to create holiday spotlights for trees, wreaths and other Christmas displays. Each year, cities across the country come alive when they are lit up with Christmas lights. Large buildings, street poles and trees are covered with lights that turn the city into a winter wonderland. Not only to decorate for the holidays, but Christmas lights can be used year round to light up gardens, patios and even across front porches. They can be used both indoors and outdoors to add a touch of sparkle and light up dark areas. Christmas lights are a great way to celebrate the holidays and add cheer to any living space. Whether you‚Äôre creating a festive landscape or decorating indoors, Christmas lights are sure to bring a bit of holiday cheer.
