Christmas lights is a popular winter holiday decoration. Every season decorators create amazing living light scenes. Colorful strings glow from rooftops and windowsills, doorways and trees, benches and gutters, creating festive, twinkling displays that can be seen from miles away. These lights come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Small white bulbs, round red twinkles, bright green stars, and large multi-colored light bulbs are some of the most popular. Some feature images, from Christmas trees and candy canes to snowflakes and reindeer. Creative homeowners and organizations often build fantastic scenes with these lights. Perhaps the most famous are the thousands of lights that line the city streets of some of the larger cities. But even for those of us living in smaller towns, we can create mini versions of these light masterpieces. The Christmas holiday is a special time of year. Many people enjoy decorating their homes and businesses to capture the spirit of the season. Christmas lights help to set the tone. They provide a bright, cheerful backdrop to our winter wonderlands and make us feel like were part of something special.
