Eating Healthy for Life

The Christmas season is the most wonderful time of year, decorating my home and the Christmas Tree. So how do you string LED lights on a Christmas Tree? On we go to the fine art of hanging Christmas Lights on our Trees.... And yes, it can be considered an art. And to some a fine art.

Ensure that before you begin , to have all the materials you require nearby . This will eliminate not having something you need while you are the on the ladder. So we will start with the ladder, make sure you have a sturdy step ladder or small ladder available. You will need this while you are wrapping the upper branches, even with a petite tree, being on a ladder makes stringing your LED lights much more effortless.

You will of course need your lights, an extension cord if the socket is not close or a step on off/on switch cord, makes lighting your tree easier , as well as some patience.

Would you be surprised to know that it is more advisable that you start draping your Christmas Tree LED lights at the bottom? We had always begun at the top. Reason being: You can follow the electrical outlet with the string of LED lights and not have too much or too little left over from hanging from the top. Never thought of it that way before. You will also be able to start with the proper male/female connections, ever string LED lights and end up with two female ends?

When trimming your Christmas Tree, always begin with the lights. The lights are the first thing that should be hung before garland or ornaments . Before you start , make certain that the lights are in working order , nothing worse than hanging up the lights on the tree and half the strand is not lighting up.

As you hang up your LED lights use a weaving motion one light under a branch and the next light above, under and over . Push the cord into the branches so the cord does not show .

Estimate your space as you drape your lights into the branches, overlap and spread out your rows so that there are no bare spots or clumps of lights together. Be especially careful not to clump the lights together at the topmost part of the tree. The top of the tree should be the showplace for your topper.

If you think you need more lights on your Christmas Tree, use additional strands and repeat the method of weaving from the top of the tree to the bottom.

Not certain how many lights you need , a quick rule of thumb is to take the height of your tree and multiply by 10. For example , a six-foot tree would need around 60 feet... I know I go way overboard on the number of lights on my Christmas tree but just can't help it.

Now that you are done stringing and are satisfied with the lights on your Christmas Tree, it is time to decorate your tree with trinkets, garland and whatever tickles your fancy ....
