Festive Patriotic Lighting with Red, White, and Blue Colored Bulbs
Show Patriotism by Installing Simple Themed Light Strands and Bulbs
This year, as Independence Day approaches, incorporate patriotic lighting into your decor with red, white, and blue lights! While the Christmas season may be the first thing that comes to mind when discussing special holiday lighting, festive lights need not be limited to Christmas decorations. Bring renewed patriotism to your decorations with red, white, and blue lights during holidays such as Veterans Day, Memorial Day, or the 4th of July. Adding patriotic lighting this summer will not only bring a festive feel to any event or space but can also help provide safe illumination as the sun sets and the backyard barbecues continue. Simple-to-install options are available for every budget, including colored rope lights, mini string lights, and even colored party bulbs that fit any standard socket.
Add Red, White, and Blue LED Rope Lights to your 4th of July Decorations
When it comes to red, white, and blue lights, LED rope lights are the most straightforward, and perhaps the most popular option. They are available in multi-colored and single-colored bulb options. Whether you need a 150-foot rope light or a shorter rope light kit for your space, Signature provides many flexible options, all of which are UL rated for indoor and outdoor use. The energy-efficient LEDs come in a variety of colors and can be paired with a controller to create a festive flashing effect.
The Signature LED Red, White, and Blue Rope Light has 150 feet of colored LEDs, which change between red, white, and blue every three feet. All Signature LED Rope Lights have clear PVC tubing, making them unobtrusive when turned off. They can safely be used to decorate either inside or outside, giving you the creative freedom to install them almost anywhere. Since they come on a spool, they are easy to store and transport. If the full 150-foot length is too long for your space, the rope light can be cut and altered to make several shorter rope lights.
Rope lights are ideal for use along the natural borders of your outdoor space such as banisters, railings, walkways, or fences. They can also be used for light under canopies and gazebos, as well as around trees. For step-by-step instructions on installing rope lights outdoors, check out this blog.
Rope Light Kits Make Installing and Customizing Your Decorations Simple
For an even more customized look with rope lights, or to install rope lights in a smaller space, consider the Signature Rope Light Kit. The kits are available in a variety of lengths and colors. The 30-foot rope light kits come in green, cool white, red, and blue options which can be displayed individually or together. Interconnecting the rope lights is simple and requires no special tools, allowing you to create a longer rope light in a patriotic pattern of red, white, and blue specialized to fit your space perfectly. While these rope lights cannot be cut or spliced, multiple rope lights are extendable up to 180 feet (6 strands). Each rope light kit includes mounting clips, tie straps, and a power cord for easy installation.
Use Rope Light Accessories to Create a Polished Patriotic Display
The right accessories will help either rope light option look polished, festive, and professional. Window suction cups are perfect for mounting rope lights to windows or any other smooth surface, while this 4-foot, clear channel raceway is ideal for getting those crisp, straight lines around deck or patio railings. Both accessories allow rope lights to be mounted securely to reduce potential tripping hazards while making sure your lights look neat. Rope lights are particularly good around large windows and display areas, bringing attention (and therefore potential business) to any storefront.
Christmas Lights: Great for Any Holiday
While rope lights may be very popular, they are not the only option for patriotic lighting. Don’t overlook simple solutions, such as red, white, and blue Christmas lights or colored light bulbs for your 4th of July or Memorial Day decorations.
Christmas Mini Light Strings are one simple option to consider for patriotic lighting displays. Stringing up a few strands each of red, white, and blue string lights in any space brings a patriotic flair. These simple lights are the perfect fit for any outdoor canopy, gazebo, or seating area. When installing them in a canopy, you can use the canopy’s framework to attach the lights with the appropriate clips or hooks. Then, you can create a cascading effect by draping the lights gently as they go toward the outer frame from the center peak of the canopy. They can also be a simple, eye catching option for storefront awnings.
Perhaps the most economical way to repurpose Christmas string lights is to bring out the C7 string lights. These red and blue LED C7 Replacement Bulbs make it easy to turn your plain, white strand of C7 lights into a patriotic decoration with alternating red, white, and blue C7 bulbs. Reusing string lights you already own can help you create unique patriotic decorations, while saving money.
Use Customized Patio String Lights for Your Outdoor Decorations
Patio string lights come in a variety of styles that can fit any outdoor space, from vintage stringers with globe-style bulbs to more modern LED versions. They bring a unique ambiance and elegance any time of year, but make the perfect patriotic lighting when customized with colored bulbs.
These patio stringers are one adjustable option with a vintage flair to consider for your patio or outdoor seating area. The G12 Globe Bulbs are available in red, white, and blue options and bring a whimsical, patriotic feel with a nostalgic touch to your outdoor space. Patio string lights can be quickly installed almost anywhere, and since they can be used year round with standard white bulbs, they are a wonderful investment.
Decorating with Red, White, and Blue Standard Bulbs
Rope and string-style lights aren’t the only great options for patriotic lights. For indoor spaces, LED Party Bulbs are simple and fun. They fit most standard sockets and add a splash of color to any space. The LED bulbs are energy-efficient and cost-reducing, with shatter-proof plastic housing. Party lights aren’t limited to overhead lights, lamps, or other indoor fixtures, however. Patio Stringers with a standard medium base socket, such as this one, can be turned into festive, 4th of July-themed outdoor lights by fitting them with colored party bulbs.
