Stringing Lights:Use 100 lights for every foot of tree, use more if your tree is fuller than average. Give the tree even more sparkle with 150 lights per foot.
White lights create a bright backdrop and draw attention to ornaments. Mixed colors create a festive tree. Test light strands before stringing.
Create depth by lining tree branches with lights instead of draping them on the tree. Start at the base and work up. Weave lights along larger branches.
