What color lights do you typically use to decorate your outdoor area with?? All white, multi, or solid one colors, or a variety of each?

I am having a hard time deciding what to do this year and was curious what everyone else does.

As LED is very popular and good to use,i think i will put some small nice LED lights to decorate the tree

I have clear mini lights and C7 multicolor lights.

I use everything. Solid colors on my three shrubs- one red, one green and one clear. Then I outline my front in multi as well as a tree

I like LED's - they use less power than other lights and you don't lose the whole string if a bulb goes.

You can get LED's that are good for indoor and outdoor use which is good.

Warm white is good. Not a major fan of flashing lights.

We don't have lights outside, wish we did though, they look beautiful :sad elf:

Would probably have multi-coloured, or maybe just white cus it looks classy.

Here's a pic. I've actually added since I took this. I took a short video with my phone, but I don't know how to post it.

I like LED Christmas Lights (http://www.echristmasworld.com/christmas-lights/christmas-led-lights.html) and Multi-Function Christmas Lights (http://www.123christmasonline.com/multi-function-christmas-lights/) both are mine favorite one!

I went outside on Saturday and added 150 clear mini lights to my midget arborvitae shrubs by the porch. The one shrub is kind of flattened by the heavy wet snow we had in November. I wonder if it will recover this spring. I'd hate to have it pulled out; it's about fifteen years old.

I was thinking about adding some to my front railing, but I was unable to find what I needed at any stores!

I'm sorry! I already had the extra lights but didn't want to go out in the cold or rain. Our weather has been mild again so I scurried out there.

There were a few other things I wanted to do but haven't gotten around to it.

We don't really have lights. We just have a light up snowman on the window.
