The ultimate Tree Lights

Taking pride of place in your lounge, the Christmas tree is the most important element of any festive display.

To ensure your tree looks its very best, we’ve designed a range of string lights specifically for Christmas trees.

Available in a dazzling array of colours and sizes, our Tree Lights have up to four times more bulbs per metre than other string lights, giving your tree a fuller, richer, more magical appearance than ever before.

The first step when lighting your tree is choosing the appropriate length of lights. Here’s our handy guide showing you exactly which Tree Lights are best for you:

500 LEDs & 12.5m cable – trees up to 5ft tall

750 LEDs & 18.7m cable – trees up to 6ft tall

1000 LEDs & 25m cable – trees up to 7ft tall

1500 LEDs & 37.5m cable – trees up to 8ft tall

2000 LEDs & 50m cable – trees up to 10ft tall

3000 LEDs & 75m cable – trees up to 12ft tall

Once you’ve chosen your favourite colour in the right length, it’s time to get decorating!

Starting at the outer edge of the base of your tree, drape your lights along the length of the branches towards the centre of the tree, and then back out again - think of it like the spokes of a bike wheel!

Slowly work your way up the tree, repeating this pattern until you reach the top.

Elevate the everyday

The tree is just the start!

With Fern Lighting, you can weave magic around every corner of your home.

From bedframes to banisters, mantlepieces to mirrors, there’s not a corner of your home that won’t be improved by Christmas lights.

The best part? All Fern Lighting has a built-in timer that automatically illuminates your lights at the same time each day – so no more fumbling around for switches!

Here’s some everyday items that can be brought to life by lights…

Mantlepieces

Mantlepieces look great illuminated by Christmas lights, and it couldn’t be easier to do.

Choose some Cluster Lights in your favourite colour and then simply drape them across the top of the mantle.

Mirrors

Big or small, square or round, there’s no mirror that can’t be brought to life by shimmering lights.

For smaller mirrors we recommend our Battery Operated Lights, or, for a fuller look, why not decorate with our gorgeous Cluster Lights?

Stairs

Create your own stairway to heaven lit by shimmering string lights.

For a minimalist look, simply weave some Tree Lights, String Lights or Battery Powered lights around the handrail of your banister.

To create more of a “wall of light”, wind your lights up and down each individual spindle.

Vases

Adding lights to a vase or bowl is a simple way to bring a table or shelf to life.

Simply find a clear vase and add some Battery Powered Lights.

Leave it like this for a minimalist look, or decorate further with your choice of pinecones, artificial berries, baubles, tinsel, or any other decorations you can think of.

Give your houseplants a festive makeover

We add lights to our Christmas trees, so why not our plants?!

Thanks to their elegant shapes and various leaves and stems to hook onto, houseplants are practically made for decorating with festive lights.

Our Battery Operated lights are perfect for decorating a wide range of houseplants. Their lightweight design also makes them great for hanging or climbing plants like ivy and pothos. And with no need for a plug socket, you can light up even your most hard to reach houseplants!

For larger plants like ficus, monstera, and palms, our String Lights work a treat. Their longer cable length makes them much easier to wind around plants, just like you would on your Christmas tree.

Light up your garden

Every set of Fern Lighting is suitable for use outside, giving you the freedom to extend your light show into the garden.

Trees and bushes make an incredible backdrop for lights. Whether you wind your lights around the trunk and branches or drape them from the canopy, the effect is similarly spectacular.

Fancy something a bit more atmospheric? With their animated “falling snow” effect, our Icicle Lights will transform your home or garden into a magical winter wonderland.
