Holiday lights can be interesting.
Outdoor lighting effects need to be big - really big, according to a Knight Ridder wire story. Hang them along one graceful limb from trunk to branch tip to enhance the beauty of your old oak. In the same family of large ornaments, Simply Lighting, an Internet resource, offers large stars made of clear plastic tubes surrounding twinkle lights. Imagine using them like draperies across the front of your house, or in large picture windows. By next year, they may join the 1999 bush nets and 1998 icicle lights in the box of luminous has-beens.
