Fred the turkey didn't use lights because they weren't available at the time. You, however, can use some decorative colored lights to brighten up your tree.

If you choose, you can go to the store to buy some already made lights that are colored. If you are creative, though, you can make your own.

Take out a bunch of little light bulbs that are attached to a wire and a plug. Also, get out some colored balloons (preferably smaller).

Put the balloons over the lights and tie them off on the wire. Then, if you want, you can wrap tinsel or something around the wire just because.

Take the new decoration you have just made, and wrap it around the tree going in an upward spiral.

FYI some trees may work better than others for this.

Plug the wire into an outlet, and the lights should appear in different colors.

If you want any more tinsel, now is the time to do it. It's harder to do after putting the next step.
