Gathering around and carefully placing treasured ornaments on a cheerfully lit tree is lots of fun and builds tradition and family memories. Here is some information about Christmas tree lighting to make Christmas season even more joyful.
History Of Christmas lights
As early as the 17th century people began using candles to light their trees. It was first began in Germany by the wealthy. People would use melted wax to adhere the candle to the tree. Then candle holders were designed. In 1882 Thomas Edison’s assistant came up with the idea of electric Christmas lights. His first endeavor was a huge hit, and soon companies were selling them. The safety light was invented in 1917 by Albert Sadacca in response to a tragic fire caused by lights. Today, safety lights are sold very inexpensively, and are widely used in homes all over the world.
Types Of Christmas lights
The type of Christmas lights that can be purchased depends largely on the purpose for them. When looking for indoor lights, one must determine how many lights that are needed before shopping. It is easier to buy the same lights because they look much more uniform. This is especially true if one chooses lights that blink or run in a sequence. Buying the same lights at the same time will allow synchronization of the pattern.
Outdoor lights should be designated specifically for outdoor use. These bulbs are usually larger than indoor lights and are designed to withstand inclement weather. Many people enjoy the look of icicle lights hanging on the eaves of their home. Net Christmas lights are designed to make decorating small plants, shrubbery, and trees simple and quick. Outdoor lights also come in a variety of colors so one can choose just what will suit the home.
Tips For Buying Christmas lights
Determine the color scheme before going shopping. One must think about the design and layout of the lighting.. A tree decorated in clear lights lends an elegant glow and compliments any ornaments. The use of garlands and ornaments combined with white lights can help a tree seem less overwhelming. If there is a theme in mind, one can choose to use only one color such as red or blue. Multi-colored lights lend a more festive air and are a favorite with children. Multi-colored lights are also available that play music and pulse to the music. Some simply run in a blinking pattern that is adjustable.
It is a good idea to buy Christmas tree lights that have a parallel wiring system, so that if one light is not working it does not effect the entire strand. If one chooses to run more than one strand of lights, dual ended plugs must be used so that all of the strands can be connected together.

Christmas tree lights are one of the most distinctive Christmas decorations, reflecting the essence and the joy of the holiday season..
