Outdoor Christmas Lights

Big or small? Colored  or clear? Flashing ? Singing? Would you like something more exotic than a single string? There are tons of options available for creating the prettiest displays around.

Figurines and Inflatables

There are all sorts of figurines  that you can place in the front lawn or on the rooftop. They can be inflatable , solid, or dressed up in lights, but don't forget the large scale outdoor nativity scene .

Plants and Trees

Greenery is a very traditional Christmas decoration. Wreaths  made from fresh boughs and garlands are an excellent decoration choice, as are small planted Christmas trees  or other evergreens .

Turning your home into Santa's Workshop can be a fun, family activity. However, you need to take proper precautions and safety measures when decorating. The amount of home injuries increases in the month of December. Don't pull a Chevy Chase  and let the cat eat the string lights. 

• Only purchase lights that have been tested by a reputable laboratory. Choose either UL or ETL lights.
• Try to use mini Christmas lights, which will burn cooler.
• Always inspect all light bulbs for cracks, loose wires, or broken sockets.
• If you need to replace bulbs, make sure they are the same wattage as the rest.
• Secure outdoor string lights with insulated holders; never use tacks or nails.
• When using a ladder, check it for damage and always secure the ladder on a flat surface.
• Always get someone to help you out when working on ladders! Tell the kids it's character building.
