It is really interesting to do some major brainstorming for holiday decoration. This is a very great idea that incorporates gratitude, family, and a seriously cool art installation. Write some wishes or names and hang them from a branch like this, or the ceiling or light fixtures at different levels. Each year we sit around the table and say what we are grateful for, so this year write them down, too on the grateful branch.


Tree Light



Take out the Christmas light tree out that you used in last Christmas season. The Christmas tree light is not just for Christmas actually. Illuminate the tree and create a warm glow.

Thanksgiving is just coming. It is a perfect time of the year when friends and family members gather to express thanks and celebrate the holiday joyfully together. It is also an occasion to enliven the happiness and spirit of the whole family and make the home feel welcome and warm by special decoration. Home decoration for thanksgiving does not have to be expensive. All we need is a little creativity and fresh ornaments. Then how will you decorate your home for the coming holiday?


Decorate the front door for better welcoming guest

Greet our guests immediately when they step into our door. Try to make the front door special, by leaving our guests an impression of warmth. We don’t have to buy a wreath. Instead, we can try to use the colors and resources from the nature, such as fall leaves, pine cones, hay and such organic things  that speak of the autumn, which can be found in the back yard. Shape them into a wreath or just DIY them in a creative way to welcome our visitors. This can set a mood for a unique Thanksgiving and just give out a bucolic feel before the visitors walk into our house.

Accent the front porch

The front porch decor shall not end with Halloween. The front porch is one of those things that should be decorated for Thanksgiving. Decorate the front porch with gourds, pumpkins, fallen leaves or things that is about autumn harvest. Decorate the twine with some seasonal flowers or in whatever way as long as they make a difference and add beautiful color next to your front door!

Add special glow to Thanksgiving holiday


Why not add a little flair to this Thanksgiving holiday. Decorative lights can be used to embellish the other decorations or glassware during the holiday. The lights can also be used to create warm atmosphere for the special day. Of course, if we have any idea of breaking out the Christmas lights early, we can decorate our home with holiday lights. DIY some lighting with the string lights and other resources that go well with the autumn theme or bring home a Christmas tree light which can be used to illuminate the house, garden or front yard till the Christmas season. We can also add candles, outdoor luminaries or decorative lights that give out soft light to signify the holiday season.



Bring natural outdoor touches indoor


Thanksgiving holiday falls still in autumn. We can try to make best use of the seasonal resources as the decoration. Use some tree branches around the fireplace and nestle the tree branches with  miniature pumpkins, leaves or even add some lights to the withered branches which may just liven up the branches and create outdoor touches. Or use the tree branches to make a garland, which may look great around the stair railings. Choose the flowers, pumpkins, pine cones and other natural resources as additions on the table.

Inspiration for Christmas String Lights Used in Other Occasions

We'd always use the string lights around the trees even a week after Thanksgiving day for creating the special atmosphere. Actually, now Christmas lights are now not only seen before or during the holiday season. They are the decorative lights used where warm and festival atmosphere is needed, in the party, wedding ceremony or even home decoration.

Nowadays, Christmas lights have been vastly diversified. We may have no enough space to put up a real Christmas tree in our house which can then be hung with various sparkling holiday lights. But we can still see the warm glow of the holiday lights with the use of a strand of decorative holiday lights or we still can feel the spectacular glow from an artificial Christmas tree light which is made to highly resemble the real tree.

There are a lot of creative decoration ideas with Christmas lights, which can help create beautiful look all the year around. We can decorate our rooms or outdoor areas with the Christmas lights in winter or summer. We can design glass bottles, birdhouses, or glowing vases with holiday lights to create fabulous lighting for home decor. We can also add warmth and romance to our living room with the holiday lights. Then what will you use the Christmas lights for?

Highlight your display with the LED holiday lights. This is a very great idea to decorate your photos or other artful items with the lights all the year round and it is very easy to do so. Besides, LED lights will not produce too much heat after long time use.

Create a illuminated bed canopy with the string lights. That's easy and especially suitable for winter season. Though the LED string light will not produce too much heat, the soft light can create an extra feeling of warmth.

Go outside and get some twigs. Add a few string lights to the twigs. This can just add a touch of vitality to the withered twigs, especially suitable for the winter when almost everything turns depressed.

Gorgeous Outdoor Lighting for Safety & Atmosphere

Gorgeous lighting does not have to be limited to the interior areas. We can actually decorate the outside areas with holiday lights and make the exterior areas an extensions of interior living space. There are a lot of areas that can be well dressed up, from the patios, deck, walkways, trees in the yard, steps, etc. There are various lights that can be used for adding shine to the outdoor areas. Besides, the lighting can also ensure the safety of outdoor environment around our house.

Proper outdoor lighting can double the living space of our home and make it an ideal place for holding a party or get-together. Once beautifully lit, our home can be much safer since intruders may avoid well-lit places in favor of darker homes. Outdoor areas, once well accented by holiday lights can help highlight our architecture and even help prolong the holiday season. Designing outdoor lighting can be fun and the purpose of mounting outdoor lighting sometimes differ.


Outdoor Lighting Enhances Safety

The outdoor areas such as pathways or steps around our house need to be well illuminated with proper holiday light so as to avoid falls or stumbles, especially for the sake of safety of kids, the elderly and those neighbors or guest who come to visit us for the first time. Outdoor lighting for safety does not have to be dazzling or harsh. The driveway and walkways, especially when they are hidden by shrubbery or trees have to be fully lit up. Try to place a few lighting fixtures to emit welcoming light. Besides, the steps to our front door have to be accented by lights.


Lights for Accenting Outdoor Areas

Outdoor lighting is used not just for the purpose of enough illumination. It is also for accenting the outdoor areas, especially in different seasons. We love to choose some outdoor lights to complement the style of our house. We can also choose the outdoor lights of special styles in respond to the themes of different seasons, warm lights for winter, colorful lights for summer, etc. We may choose the LED mini lights to wrap the trees in the garden or highlight the lovely birdcage, fountain and bench with some creative lights for extra visual beauty to the look of an outdoor space. We love to accent the door with lights on either side of it to show it off.

Lights for Festival Atmosphere

The winter is coming, with important holidays such as Thanksgiving and Christmas season. It's time to prepare for holiday light decoration. Besides the interior lights, the outdoor lighting is also one of the important aspects for the whole holiday decor. The quickest and most effective way to create holiday atmosphere is to bring some Christmas light trees home, suspend Christmas string lights from eaves or hang them along the roofs. Of course, string lights are not just for Christmas anymore, for they are more and more widely used to dress up an outdoor space for any celebration.

Have a Green & Affordable Christmas This Year

Christmas is a holiday that draws out the best in most of us each year. But the Christmas season also brings us a lot of nightmare, such as chopped-down trees, garbage from holiday wrapping or packaging, megawatts of flashing lights, etc. Actually, Christmas does not have to be a holiday of nightmare to our environment. With a little imagination, we can have a different Green holiday this year.

It's inevitable to shop for a lot of goods, before the Christmas season, especially the Christmas gifts, Christmas trees and holiday lights. For a green and affordable Christmas, we need to be a smart buyer. Here are some tips for Christmas shopping.

Buy Less While Giving More

But sometimes we can spend less, take the holiday gifts for example. Though practical and necessary, not all holiday gifts need to be bought in the store actually if we really want to express thoughtfulness and wishes to our friends or relatives. We can try some DIY or just simplify the family gift-giving ritual. For example, focus on a special gift for just one. Before the Christmas season start, write down the names of all adult family members on separate slips of paper and take turns picking one name per adult and use this game to decide our gift recipient. Keep our chosen pick a secret so get prepared for a big surprise. In this way, our gift list can be shortened. Discuss about the spending limit so that gift sending might be much interesting.

Buy Green

As for green purchase, we need to think more about things behind what we buy. For example, most of the gifts in the market come from halfway all over the world. We may hardly see the impact of transportation to the greenhouse emissions. We can actually choose locally made gifts so that the purchase will not impose extra costs of transportation. For a green holiday this year, try to find some gifts made from recycled materials or even re-gift others this year. Re-gifting is a trend. If we get something we really don't need, think about good ways to pass it on to someone who can use it.

Energy Efficient LED Holiday Lights

The most popular energy-saving stars on the holiday scene are LED Christmas lights. LED decorative lights apply semiconducting materials instead of incandescent filaments, which is 90% more efficient than traditional Christmas lights. Try to replace the traditional decorative lights with LED holiday lights. LED lights actually can last long hours yet release very little heat. They are also very safe lighting.

Artificial Christmas Tree

For most of us, Christmas can not be wonderful without a fragrant Christmas tree at home. But if each family has a live Christmas tree, there will be too many trees being cut down from tree farms. Instead, if we use artificial trees, especially the one-time purchase-for-repeated-decoration tree can be much better. Artificial trees actually cost much more energy and petroleum-based materials when they are made. But a one-time-purchase of such trees can over a long time save gas otherwise used for annual trips to the tree farm. Artificial trees can be re-used after the Christmas season. Once they are accented with lights, they can even be used for party decoration, garden decor or other special occasions.
