Energy-saving Holiday Lights

Hours of sparkle for a fraction of the energy

You can save a lot of energy while enjoying the glow of warm holiday lights.

Eco-friendly options include outdoor solar or LED string lights, rechargeable indoor-outdoor votives, flameless indoor tea lights, and more.

LED bulbs use 1/50 of the electricity of traditional holiday lights, and they can last up to 30 years.

For even more energy savings, attach light strings to a timer (about $9 from Environmental Lights).

Rechargeable indoor-outdoor votives

We love the art-meets-tech pairing of LED bulbs and handblown glass globes.

Available in 4 colors; amber with white bulbs shown ($57 for Aurora Glow solar collector and 6 2½-inch-wide globes with hooks on a 25-foot strong; from allsopgarden.com).

Rechargeable indoor-outdoor votives

You can leave on these Moon Drops votives all day (one charge lasts more than 150 hours) or set the photo sensor to turn them off when the sun comes up.

Available in 2 styles; Sprig is shown here ($19 per pair; from allsopgarden.com).
