Christmas Lights, or Christmas Decorations, are a part of the Christmas spirit. They are seen in homes, businesses, and even in public spaces. The Christmas Lights tradition began in the late 19th century, in England. There, it was customary to put up Christmas Trees and then decorate them withpaper balls, tinsel, and strands of multicolored lights. This tradition gradually spread throughout the world, becoming popular in the United States by the 1930s. Nowadays, Christmas Lights come in all shapes, sizes, patterns, and colors. They can be flashing, twinkling, or static. In addition, there are lights in the shapes of Christmas trees, reindeer, snowmen, angels, and stars. Some lights are made of thin plastic and can be reused every year. Others are made of tinsel, paper, or glass and must be replaced after a few years of use. Though Christmas Lights can be expensive, the joy and the beauty that they bring are priceless. Seeing a home, tree, or even a city lit up with Christmas lights is a sight that will bring happiness to anyones heart. So, this holiday season, be sure to get your Christmas lights up and enjoy the wonderful spirit they bring to your home!
