10 Easy Pieces: Outdoor Holiday Lights, Ornament Edition

November 6, 2026

Tired of fighting with your outdoor holiday lights every year? Us too. Rather than wrestling and wrangling string lights into submission, consider just hanging one (or three) statement-making lit ornaments instead. It’s the minimalist, and lazy, approach to decorating for the season—and we’re here for it.

These 3D Foldable Lighted Spheres are available in three sizes (\15-, \20-, and 3\2-inches) and emit a warm glow; from \$\107 at Grandin Road.

The Stargazer Illuminated LED Vine Star looks pretty even when not illuminated thanks to its natural vine wrapping; \$78 at Terrain.
