When it comes to the Christmas season, it is all about excitement, sparkle, and lights. While beautiful to behold and an absolute treat to be able to enjoy, the reality is that all that Christmas brings can actually do quite a number on your energy bill hence, making it more expensive and using more energy than you ever could imagine. Thankfully, there are several things that can be done in order to quell some of the costs that are associated with the festive season and bring down your energy usage a great deal.
When it comes to lighting during Christmas time, one of the best things to do to save on energy is to replace your old lights with energy efficient lights such as hyper-efficient LED string lights. Replace the lights that you use on your tree, on the exterior of your home, and also the ones that you might use in many of your fun Christmas decorations. Replacing lights will save a tremendous amount of money and energy in the long run and lower your energy use exponentially. Another way to save on energy during the season is to purchase a Christmas tree that has been pot-grown. Pot-grown Christmas trees are able to be used again and again, season after season, which helps the environment as well as your pocket book, ten-fold. Now onto Christmas decorations, when it comes to saving energy on Christmas decorations, the best thing you can do is buy high quality items which can be reused year after year saving energy and money. It is also advisable to wrap presents in recyclable paper which looks both chic and modern and saves the environment. Additionally, you can also cut up old Christmas cards and use them in lieu of new, store-bought gift cards.
