Lighting Your Christmas Tree in Style

Back in October, I was putting up my Christmas tree and lights two months early because I was doing a tutorial for eHow sponsored by Home Depot. We were in the middle of a heat wave, but getting out the tree and all the shiny ornaments put me in the holiday spirit. For this eHow Spark board, I showed how to add lights to a tree, and how to place the ornaments for maximum sparkle. For the first time, I used LED lights. The lights are bluer than incandescent lights so they’re not as warm, but they use up far less energy, and you can string a lot more sets together. See all the step-by-step photos here.
