I found some Christmas lights on around my hoes and I need some ideas on how to use ... as decoration.


We have 4 fake trees and are packed with Christmas lights around them.Or Put them around the top of the ceiling like a Border.If you put a ramp on them.You can also look in your room or if you children place them underneath the bed, she makes a cool night light.

How can Christmas lights be utilized indoors to add a subtle ambience to a room without being overpowering?

Aug 29, 2007 by ♥ | Posted in Decorating & Remodeling

Would it be better to use the Christmas lights that come in tinted shades and give off a soft light orange light as opposed to white light or other colors? I don't want it to look like a Christmas decoration/theme or look tacky. Also, what are some safety precautions to keep in mind when decorating with them? Are they a fire hazard if draped over fabric, for instance?


I have often decorated tall indoor plants with those tiny white lights. They give off a soft light that doesn't look particularly Christmasy. I usually leave them on throughout the nite as they light the way to other parts of the house when all is dark in the middle of the night.

I wouldn't use them over fabric for any length of time as they might scorch the fabric if it came into direct contact.

During breaks between heats, patients will be invited to make a little run of their own size of an adult on three wheels. The Flyers Austin Women's Cycling Team is sponsoring this leg, which is a fundraiser for the hospital.

About 300 riders are expected each day of the Tour. Registration is $ 30 per race, with a discount of 15 per cent for those who pre-register for three days to www.raceaustin.com.
