Decorative Lights

My husband is thinking of changing the tivoli lights we have every Christmas. He wants to put led rope light this time. It’s like he’s going to outline the whole house with led rope lights. I think the idea is awesome and I can’t wait. Actually he already thought of using it last Christmas, but we didn’t have enough time to plan everything. I am excited already because I saw this house with led rope lighting in one of the posh subdivisions and it’s just pretty and eye catching. The beautiful lighting sets it apart from all the other houses. I think it’s the perfect accent lighting to have during the holiday season. Hhhhmmm, what color should we use? If I’m going to ask my daughter, definitely she’ll say violet. Yeah, violet is cool, not a typical Christmas color, but nowadays there are no rules to follow really. As long as you think it would look good, then why not. And another thing, compared to the tivoli lights that we have, led rope lights have much longer life. The led bulbs can last up to 100,000 hours. Isn’t that amazing? And here’s another thing to be considered. Led rope lights generate almost no heat, and it requires less energy too. Woohoo we can save on electricity. Funny how we turn off the tivoli lights after an hour’s use, because of some news we hear that it can cause fire after prolonged use. With led rope lights, we can be assured that it’s safe even on extended hours of use.
