All-white elegant Christmas lights on a house

All-white elegant uses warm white only: the roofline, every window frame, a wreath at each opening and mini lights in the shrubs. Symmetry is the whole look.

All-white elegant: what the sources say

  • The Department of Energy says warm-dimming LED products are usually designed for 2700-3000K at full output.1
  • ENERGY STAR says certified light strings must meet product packaging requirements to ensure consumers have a clear understanding of products when they look to purchase light strings.2
  • ENERGY STAR says certified decorative light strings consume 92% less energy than conventional incandescent light strands.3

Verdict. Suits a symmetrical house with real trim to outline, and falls apart the moment one strand comes from a different batch and reads a shade yellower than its neighbors.
