When it comes to holiday lighting, every home is unique — and so are the installation options. At Elf Pros Lighting, we want to make sure your display not only shines bright all season long but also protects the beauty of your home. That’s why we always take time to walk through your property and discuss the best methods before installation begins.
Here are a few things to consider when planning your holiday lighting:
Windows & Front Door Perimeter
Outlining the windows and entryways with lights is a classic holiday look. To achieve this, we often use hot glue on stucco surfaces. This method is secure and effective, but we do want to share one important note: when lights are removed at the end of the season, there is a possibility that some paint may come off.
Garage Door
For garage door lighting, staples provide a clean and sturdy installation. The only trade-off is that once the season ends, you may notice very small staple holes. They’re minor, but we want our clients to be aware before choosing this option.
Palm Trees
Palm trees are one of our favorite features to light up here in Orange County! We can safely wrap up to about 20 feet of the trunk. If you’d like us to go all the way to the top or into the palm fronds, a boom lift is required, which would be added as a separate cost. For many clients, the mid-level wrap provides a stunning glow without the added equipment expense.
Go Big With a 360° Wrap
If your home sits on a corner or has lots of curb appeal, consider a full 360° perimeter wrap. This design makes your home shine from every angle, creating a true “wow” factor for neighbors and guests. It’s one of our favorite recommendations for homeowners who want their display to stand out beautifully.
At Elf Pros Lighting, we don’t just hang lights — we help you create a custom holiday experience while being transparent about the options, methods, and results. From classic rooflines to full-property designs, our goal is to deliver holiday magic that fits your vision and protects your home.
