Types of Christmas Tree Lights

Christmas tree lights can be divided into several categories, helping you determine which options are best for your home and your seasonal decor needs.

One of the main differences between light options is the bulb type - either incandescent or LED.

Incandescent Lights often cost less than LEDs and offer that traditional, warm glow that makes you feel nostalgic for holidays gone by. LED Lights, on the other hand, use less energy than incandescent bulbs and last longer. In fact, some LEDs are rated up to 100,000 hours of use! LED lights also operate at a lower temperature, making them less of a hazard.

Another factor in choosing lights for a Christmas tree is the actual set-up and design of the lights and how they are installed on your tree or around your house. The most common type of Chrstmas light is the string light, which is the typical option found in many homes and in many different light setups.

Lights also come in netting designs, rope designs, designs that look like icicles, and so many more!

How to Add Lights to Your Christmas Tree

There are several things to consider when decorating your Christmas tree. First is bulb spacing. This consideration means that lights with more space between bulbs are ideal for wrapping slender posts and tree branches - essentially, these lights are better for outdoor use.

Meanwhile, strands of lights with less space between bulbs are typically best for draping loosely around indoor trees. Therefore, consider these lights when decorating your tree.

Don’t forget to choose the color of lights you want, too! White lights offer timeless, classic appeal, while multi-color lights add fest and festive appeal. Mix and match for unique looks, and don’t be afraid to experiment with different looks and designs!

Also take into account the string length. Two strands with the same number of lights will have different lengths if the spacing between lights isn't the same.

When you’re set to add lights to your tree, use this rule of thumb to know how many lights you need to get the best look: 100 Christmas tree lights per vertical foot-and-a-half of tree. So, for example, a 6-foot-tall tree would need about 400 lights.

Also consider the fact that strands with 4-inch bulb spacing will light more area more efficiently, and at a cheaper up-front cost. And you’ll always want to pick up a few extra strands of lights, just in case you end up needing more!
