A "Green" Approach to Holiday Decorating

Holiday Decorating Specialist Christmas Decor Says Energy-Efficient LED Lighting Is a Bright Idea for Eco-Friendly Displays


LUBBOCK, TX--(Marketwired - Oct 5, 2015) - According to holiday decorating expert Christmas Decor, home and business owners looking for ways to build an eco-conscious lifestyle by using products that have less impact on the environment can now turn to professional holiday decorators to help keep the "green" in the holiday season.

The seasonal décor specialists at Christmas Decor, the nation's largest professional holiday decorating network, increasingly use versatile LED lights for brilliant eco-friendly outdoor displays. These lights derive their name from the "light emitting diodes" they use to create light. LED Christmas lights are similar to the traditional Christmas incandescent bulbs except that they do not have a filament inside that can burn out and take the entire string of bulbs with it. Instead, they are illuminated by the movement of electrons in a semi-conductor material.

The movement of these electrons requires much less electricity to provide that holiday glow. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, LED Christmas lights use 70 percent less energy than traditional bulbs, and are brighter, eco-friendly, and are safer, since they are much cooler than incandescent lights.

"While we still offer incandescent lighting to our clients, LEDs for holiday lighting continue to grow in popularity for our holiday decorating installations," added Brandon Stephens, president of Christmas Decor. "Our clients want to avoid the high rates they see on their electric bills after the holidays and they also are becoming more environmentally conscious. That's when the substantial benefits that LEDs offer over incandescent lighting become apparent. The versatility and beauty of LEDs really add to our service package with their flexibility, durability and convenience."

In addition to having the option to elect LED lighting, clients who work with a Christmas Decor franchisee can count on enjoying the latest trends in greenery and proprietary holiday decorative items selected for them each year during a personal design consultation. This eliminates the need to store decorations from year to year and to dispose of outdated décor and purchase new.

"We encourage local home and business owners to reserve a time on the décor calendar of their local Christmas Decor specialist soon for the widest selection of product and date options," said Stephens. "Our décor specialists are already gearing up for early installations so that our clients simply need to 'flip the switch' to start the holiday season."
