I'm leaning towards coloured lights - I have always had those... but as I'll be getting new tree lights this year I will have to consider any new decorations as well. Not 100% sure yet :)

I like the colored ones, but at a after Christmas sale last year I bought 700 white lights, so this year going to put them on the tree and see how we like it!

We're the same as Lisa. I love white and DH likes colored lights. We used to put both on the tree but we bought a pre-lit tree last year and I think it's colored lights. We do use white on the outside of the house and I like to put them around windows too.

White lights for us. We even have a second white Christmas tree with white lights. The outside of the house has white ice sicle lights with small snowflakes on them too. I would like to add some colored ones somewhere, just need to figure out where.

My tree in the living room is white with white lights, my tree in the dinning room is green with color lights.
When and if I find one of the half trees that hang on the wall for my kitchen I will put red lights on it for my ginger bread men

I prefer white. Hubby prefers colored. Sometimes we do one or the other...sometimes we do both.

My main Christmas tree I decorate with all white lights. For the smaller trees I use multi-color lights. I switch every few years from clear to multi on the balcony and front door area.

I like the white lights, but my family prefers color. I guess I should give in one year...maybe this year?? After all, I like for them to be happy, too.

I think we may try both this year! White lights for the diningroom, and coloured for the livingroom
