Colored Light Christmas Trees

Save time decorating with a pre-lit Christmas tree with colored lights. Every bulb comes perfectly placed, so you won’t spend all afternoon untangling strands of lights. 

If you prefer a more old-school approach, you can decorate your tree by hand with colored Christmas tree lights. Before you get started, always plug the strands in before putting them on the tree to make sure all the bulbs light up. That way, you won’t have to redo your hard work if there’s an issue with the lights.

Begin at the bottom of the tree and wind the strands up to the top. Space them evenly on the branches. But you don’t need to break out the tape measure: Little imperfections will make your tree feel more homey and natural.

Mixing Colored and White Christmas Lights

Are you torn between multi-colored and white Christmas lights? Get the best of both worlds by adding strands of each to your tree. 

Hang the white lights deep in the branches near the trunk, then add a layer of multi-colored lights close to the tips. The lights will reflect off each other, giving your tree a brilliant glow. You can even speed up your decorating by buying a pre-lit Christmas tree with clear lights and adding the colored lights yourself. 

White vs. Colored Lights

A Christmas tree with clear lights fills your home with a soft, snowy glow. This elegant and tranquil style creates a relaxing atmosphere for your holiday get-togethers.

But don’t overestimate the power of traditional colored Christmas lights. These bright bulbs are playful and pair well with many ornaments, from simple glass bulbs to quirky handmade decorations
