Custom Light Strings If a bulb has gone out or you just aren’t happy with the color of your strand anymore, changing it to something new is easy and fun.
Popular Color Schemes:
· Candy Cane (Red, White)
· Christmas (Red, Green)
· Halloween (Purple, Orange)
· Patriotic (Red, White, Blue)
You can change from incandescent to LED bulbs to save power, but you cannot change from a C7 to a C9 bulb due to socket base size.
To change your bulbs, follow these simple steps:
· Check the size of your current string’s bulbs
· Get a count of all the bulbs that need replacing on the string
· Purchase the new bulbs, allowing for a few extra just in case
· Unscrew the old bulbs and replace with the new bulbs
---Do not try to force lights into sockets. You may damage the bulb or the entire string.
