Get Started with Christmas Decorations

Christmas is almost here again, meaning holiday decorations will start to come out. Holiday lights are one of the most important aspects of Christmas decorations, right up there with a Christmas tree, so homeowners may need some information to know which kind to buy and how to stay safe when using them. This article will outline finding the right lights for the house, being safe with electricity, and how to be eco-friendly this season with Christmas lights. 

Finding the Right Holiday Lights lights

There are many different kinds of lights to choose from when purchasing holiday lights. However, that can be overwhelming to some, and this article is here to help homeowners choose the best lights for them. The most well-known outdoor holiday light options are LED and incandescent lights. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, LED lights use up to 90% less energy than incandescent lights and can last 25 times as long.

Holiday lights also come in many different styles. There are mini-string lights, wide-angle lights, large bulb lights, animated, and icicle lights. Homeowners should consider both the type of light and the shape/style that they want and use those to determine the best lights for them.

Ensuring Electrical Safety 

The holidays are fun, but unfortunately, a few dangers come with this fun that every homeowner should be aware of. For instance, if certain lights are used on a Christmas tree, they can set the tree ablaze, causing the home to catch fire. If a homeowner is going to decorate their tree or the outside of their home with lights, they should make sure to turn them off before going to sleep. Also, placing a Christmas tree near a fireplace might look nice and homey, but these trees and fires don’t mix. 

While hanging holiday lights, never use a stapler or nails to punch through the wiring. This is because this contact with the object can cause an electrical shock or damage wiring, which can be a fire hazard. Homeowners should also be careful not to overload circuits because this can lead to a fire caused by overheating. And while decorating the outside of their homes with lights and holiday inflatables, homeowners should ensure that only decorations designed to be used outside are used. Being aware of the dangers of holiday lights is the first step to avoiding fires or outages this holiday season and keeping the family safe. 

‘Tis the Season for Eco-Friendly Holiday Lights 

It may be difficult for families to be eco-friendly during the holiday season, but there are plenty of ways to get started. Several holiday light options have a classic look while still offering eco-friendliness. LED lights are extremely popular and well-known when it comes to energy-efficient lights. Not only are they beneficial for the environment, but they last longer too. These lights also come in several color packages to satisfy homeowners during the holidays. 

Solar-powered lights are also another eco-friendly holiday light option for homeowners. The benefits of these solar-powered lights are that they are the best for the environment. They don’t need to plug into an electrical outlet to operate, which allows homeowners to save on their electric bills. Battery-operated lights are also an eco-friendly option when it comes to holiday lights. Homeowners will need to charge these battery-operated lights instead of plugging them into an outlet.
