Christmas Lights!

**V-Unit** · 07-12-2005, 11:33 PM

I'm still in college and this is my first time living in a house with friends instead of parents. I was searching for decorations for my new room and thought that Christmas lights would be a good addition. They seem to add a pleasant "aura" to the room. Then I found this website with a huge selction, almost too much. I was going to get the standard white lights, but the options overwhelmed me and I need help. All I know now is that I want the lights to be bright enough to be the only source of light in the room.

What should a

college guy like me have in his room with blue walls?

Standard: cool, but boring.
Yellow: A bit more dim and so more relaxing than standard.
Orange: I remember for kindergarten art class that orange and blue are supposed to blend well together.
Purple: I would be in Viking heaven and it might create a blacklight feel too. Might be too dim though.
Green: I like this color but wouldn't want it to clash with my blue walls.
Blue: I think they would blend with my walls well.
Multicolored: Disco Fever!
Twinkle: I dunno whther they would be annoying or cool.

I've definetly never bought Christmas lights before so any help would be appreciated! :grin:

I don't think they come in yellow. They are actual Viking helmets with the horn on the sides. They are probably about 2 inch helmets or so. I'll try to find a site for you.

Ok, I couldn't find them anywhere on the internet, but my brother bought them for me at a grocery store or something! They should be easier to find in stores (in Minnesota) closer to the holidays! I'll keep looking for a site where you can order them from!
