I hate our Christmas lights: update!

I am so bummed. This is our first year in our new home so I was so excited to be able to put lights up! But we got the new LED white lights and I hate how they look. The color is wierd . They don't look like Christmas lights at all ! I am so bummed and I feel bad because DH worked so hard today to get them just right Chat Icon Our neighbors are going to think we're freaks! What can I add to it or do to make it look better??? I wanted to put another wreath and some garland and bows up . And I'm on the hunt for a little lawn reindeer. Maybe that will take attention away from the horrible glow coming from our rooftop!

update! DH is taking down the horrid looking lights and we are going to return them and hopefully be able to find some prettier ones Chat Icon

Thanks for the hugs Chat Icon I just needed to vent here, because I don't want to get upset in front of DH, but he's not too thrilled with them either. We're just leaving it though. We spent enough money on them and it's such a pain to put them up!

I am sure they look beautiful, but you are just being picky because it is your first Christmas in your new home. We did the same thing. We put our lights up, and I thought it looked so BORING. LOL

Re: I hate our Christmas lights

Ohhh I know what you mean. The LED lights almost look spooky cause they glow a little strange.

I think if you spruce it up a bit, it will look FAB!
