I really want do do all white but DH wants colored lights! Chat Icon

I have this argument with DH every year. I like coloured ornaments with white lights, or clear & white ornaments with coloured lights.

DH wants coloured everything. It drives me nuts. We have a small room that we keep our tree in and it is too much with all the colour.

In the past, both trees have been white. (The Dining Room tree is a pre-lit)

This will be my last year doing the Family Room tree w/white lights (until our children are older.) I intend to use multicolored lights for DD. I just think kids love seeing the different colors on the tree. I grew up with multicolored lights and the tree just seemed to sparkle...so magical. Chat Icon

Re: What color lights are you planning on putting on your Christmas tree?

depends on what kind of pre-lit tree we buy, I saw one over the w/e that switches back and forth from multi colored to all white. Maybe get that one and have the best of both worlds.

Re: What color lights are you planning on putting on your Christmas tree?

I do like both. Do you know how sad it is that I have no idea if we have colored or white lights??? I can't freakin remember.???

I'll have to come back to this after we take our decorations out.

Re: What color lights are you planning on putting on your Christmas tree?

We do white lights only. We are really picky when it comes to our tree. Only Ball ornaments, no garland, no tinsel.

I know once we have kids we won't have as much control, so we are strict while we can be.

Re: What color lights are you planning on putting on your Christmas tree?

I do white lights. I think they are so elegant although I also think the colored lights look nice if they are paired with the right ornaments. DH is so opposed to them though....apparently my MIL would decorate the whole house with colored lights that had music. He says he was tortured LOL. I tell him if he doens't behave I'm going to go and buy some colorful musical lights and string them in the bedroom.

We do white on both trees, one in Great room & one in Family room in the basement.
The lights I have are about ten years old & they have an adjustable flasher thing on them, I set it really slow so they "twinkle" I think it looks great.
Had colored as a kid though. DH doesn't care, he's not a fan of buying new christmas decoration since I already had so much when we met. Whatever I put up is fine w/him.
