Multicolor LED String Lights

String lights with a remote, and the color is entirely up to you. Set a strand to any solid color you like — warm white down a long table, deep purple for a Halloween room, soft blue for a baby shower, your team's color for a watch party.

They also hold preset color combinations for the holidays, so you do not have to build the look yourself: purple and orange for Halloween, red and green for Christmas, red, white and blue for the Fourth of July, and several more besides.

Beyond solid color there are eight settings — steady, fade, flash, chase, twinkle, wave, fill and stream — and a four, six or eight hour timer so they turn themselves off at the end of the night instead of someone remembering to. They are rated for outdoor use as well as indoor, so they are just as happy down a fence line or wound through a tree as they are around a dessert table.

$10 a strand and we have six. Run them end to end for one long stretch, or spread them around a room and set them all from the same remote.
