Why do they have to be called Christmas lights? Tiny lights on a string are simply tiny lights on a string and can be used for countless projects, crafts, and decor ideas. Don't pack up your lights this year. Instead, try one of these great ideas!
Ok, I know everyone has seen this photo from the now defunct Blueprint magazine, but this idea is still a genius one.

I love how the glow really illuminates the pattern on the origami paper. Thin paper is ideal for this so the light really shines through. Via Spoon & Tamago.
Extra boxes + twinkle lights = this amazing construction. The perfect post-holiday idea that uses two things that you have at your fingertips. Via Pinterest.
And there's nothing wrong with dolling up a blank wall with a little twinkle. It's warm and a lovely way to fill space inexpensively.
