This weekend I was putting up the Christmas trees, because the children have been begging for them! In our living room we have a Christmas tree with white lights and in the kids loft we have a Christmas tree with colored lights. It got me thinking, what Christmas lights do others prefer? Do you have white or colored Christmas lights? I think next year I will switch the lights up and have colored lights on our main tree. I love the nostalgia they create.

My tree has 6 different light options. Sometimes I feel like white, other times color and once in a while I like the green/red combination. I bought this tree about 2 years ago from Home Depot and really enjoy having the variety or color options to choose from.
My outside lights are all done and Friday the autumn/Thanksgiving decor will come down and I'll bring up the inside stuff. The tree will probably go up on Sunday.
Have fun decorating!

I prefer White lights on my tree as they remind me of Germany. That’s when I fell in love with white lights on
my tree as we always had colored lights. Living in Germany we learned many new traditions that we still embrace. I really miss Germany at Christmas.
Big Hugs,

I put up 4 trees and they all have white lights.
Debbie - one day I'd love to go to Germany for Christmas!!! The Christmas markets look amazing!

Dawn, I really like that! I like the thought of being able to change the colors to fit your mood without having to take them all off the tree! I will have to see if they sell those lights as an option next year. We don't have a prelit tree. I was tired of constantly fixing the lights on those trees. Fixing the tree branches and putting on the lights and garland are just not for my husband. He would be good just taking the tree from the box, sticking them together, and calling it good lol! Drives me crazy!
Karen, I am normally all about the white lights, but the colored lights really have my heart this year. They remind me of my grandma.

Colored lights for our family, because of the nostalgia, but I have a smaller tree with white lights.

I prefer white inside on the tree. I also have them (mini) around my two big living room windows and those are there year round.
Colored lights outside, however I don't have that going on this year.
