Holiday Lighting and Landscapes

Planning and putting up decorative Holiday lighting can be such a fun time in your home or business. If you add some elaborate lighting into your space or just a bit of sparkle, follow these tips to ensure a successful season.

Plan Your Power

Due to most of the lights needing a power source, you need to be careful when running extension cords over your lawn or through your flower beds. Ensure you have waterproof coverings on your sockets, and communicate with your Landscape maintenance crews, remember, the cables and live power.

Mobile Lighting Can Save Your Lawn

Being able to tend to your lawn over the season, water and cut it is still required. Not being able to move your installations for landscape maintenance can cause a lot of damage come January.

Use Holiday Plants as Decorations

Poinsettias are a fabulous plant to use as decoration around your garden. They can be potted, so you have the option to move them around at will over the season. They come in a different color, so you can mix and match to create a bright red color in your garden, community clubhouse, or even by the pool.

Map Your Lights

If you know what you want to do, you can add permanent hooks on your home or in your garden to re-use year after year. This keeps them neat and out of the way of any traffic or accidents. Swopping the lights for different colors each year will keep them fresh and exciting.

Make USe of Smart Switches

Having your lights on one power source linked to a timer will benefit you in several ways. Timers will automatically turn on the lights when it gets dark, and remember to turn them off again when everyone is asleep. This will help reduce your energy bill and help the neighbors sleep!

Invest in LED

The LED technology has grown in leaps and bounds. They may slightly more to buy upfront, but the long-term saving is unparalleled. They will last you much longer, so you can use them year after year.

Borrow or Invest in the Right Tools

Using a painter’s ladder is a far easier option than moving a large and long ladder every few feet to set up the lights. Investing in a light hanging pole is also an excellent investment and can make the whole process much faster.

Think 24/7

Lights only affect in the evening, so plan your daytime garden with Christmas inspired garlands, bright red Christmas Bows, and tinsel to wrap trees, mailboxes, and light poles. This will keep your house looking festive all day and all night.

Don’t forget to take pics of your decorated home and garden and post them on social media for all to enjoy!
