Miniature "twinkle lights" have long been popular for decorating indoor Christmas trees. However, these light strings also work quite well for decorating indoor trees and large house plants. Simply wrap the light string loosely around the trunk or stem, taking care not to damage the plant. Then, continue to drape the light string through the branches to add a twinkling look. If you use clear white bulbs, you might just like the visual effect enough to leave them in place all year long.
Create a Sparkling Wreath
Although small battery-powered strings of lights have become increasingly popular for decorating wreaths, you might find that a short string of electric lights can work just as well in some cases. For example, if you plan to hang a wreath over a mantel, you might already have an electrical outlet in close proximity. If this is the case, you may find using electric Christmas lights to be more convenient and economical than battery powered lights. If you do need to use an extension cord, always make sure to keep it safely positioned to avoid potential accidents. Short strings of specialty lights, such as those which have decorative globes, often work especially well for wreaths.
Decorative Staircases
If you have a staircase with a railing in your home, use your extra strings of lights to decorate it. As long as you have a safely accessible outlet nearby, you can simply wind the string of lights up the railing to add sparkle and color. Accentuate the look by also wrapping the railing with evergreen swags, ribbon or garland.
Christmas Tree Wall Art
If you\'re looking for a fun and funky way to decorate for the holidays, use your old light strings to create an outline of a Christmas tree directly on your wall. To make attaching the lights easily, cut a large Christmas tree shape out of cardboard and paint it green. Then, cut small slits at regular intervals around the outside edges of the cutout. Attach the light strings to the cardboard, securing the cords in the slits to hold in place. Hang on the wall, plug in and enjoy.
