We're sure there are a select few out there who enjoy installing holiday lights, though for most people, it's a time-consuming drag of a task. Stringing Christmas lights on your tree is one thing, but decorating outdoors is quite another. Luckily, a very clever person came up with the idea of Christmas net lights, which you can blanket over bushes, hedges, fences, and more in much less time than it takes to install individual strands. Read on for our top recommendations worth considering, plus shopping tips and advice on installation and storage.

What to Consider

The place to start when shopping for Christmas net lights is with the dimensions. Although it may not be exact, it's essential to find a set that's as close as possible to the area that needs coverage. Using net lights can save you a ton of time, but don't expect installation to be as quick as throwing them over the hedges and calling it a day. Slapdash jobs with net lights are painfully obvious. You want the end result to look like you spent hours stringing regular light sets, which requires pre-planning and patience.

Net grids are either square or diamond-shaped, and if you prefer a uniform design, a square grid may be easier to line up. As for power source, there are plug-in, solar, and battery options. The majority of sets have LED lights and offer end-to-end connection, and the selection of wire and bulb color is just as varied as traditional lights. In terms of extra features, there's everything from multiple lighting modes and timers to remote controls and memory function. There are also sets made specifically for wrapping tree trunks.

Installation Tips

For square or rectangular hedges, drape the net over the top and make sure the overhang is the same height on both sides. For help approximating where to place them correctly so you don't have adjust them, measure the hedge's height and mark the net with painter's tape or something similar to guide you where to fold them over. For bushes, aim to have the middle of net top and center. Tuck any excess net underneath.

Storage

How to store net Christmas lights is a common question, as they tend to tangle easily. To prevent them from becoming a ball of wire next season, spread the set out on the grass or driveway and fold it into quarters. If you want to get fancy, lay sheets of tissued paper in between folds and use a piece of cardboard on the bottom to keep them flat. Slip them inside a large Ziploc bag or buy a clear organizer bag for long-term storage.

How We Chose

Every set of net lights we write about below have an average customer review of four stars or more. Our selection includes lights in a range of sizes to suit small and large installation projects, as well as the best plug-in, solar, and battery-operated sets. We feature multicolor, warm white, and cool white net lights on both green and white wires, and note if there are other options available.
