I like the green ones. They look like little peas from a distance.

I like assortments of different colored lights. One single color for a set of lights is sort of boring.

I like the white ones.

Yeah, my tastes can be kind of "boring."

Some years back they used to market strings of 5 watt transparent color bulbs in red, blue, amber, green and pinkish-purple. The last named bulbs were my favorites, but rarer every year, as the replacement bulb packs contained only red, blue, amber and green bulbs. I used to buy new strings I didn't need just to have enough purple bulbs for my original strings--until I discovered that thrift stores sold old Christmas decorations, too.

I haven't yet used LED lights for Christmas decorating, but I like the variety of non-traditional colors--orange may prove to be a new favorite.
