Here is the thing, I confess. See I love Christmas lights. So much so that, I recently returned from Walt Disney World to celebrate Christmas early.
Why?
Because I truly love Christmas decorations, specifically lights.
Lights, I did see. So many pretty lights and decorations for Christmas all over Disney World.
I came home and quickly decided that needed to decorate my own home for Christmas; lights and all!
Then, of course, came the decision to overshare Christmas lights and decorating on my own blog.
Plus, my bestie from Tamera Like Camera was on the same page. We often enough think the same way. Every once in a while, we also blog similar recipes and more. I mean they don’t call us blog twins for no reason!
So, made sense that we both decided to blog a Christmas Lightbulbs recipe share today.

See my family, minus the picky eater loves strawberries. The rest of us especially enjoy chocolate covered strawberries. Therefore, I got the bright idea to make white chocolate covered strawberries into Christmas Lightbulbs.
Genius idea, right?
Easy enough to make, too!
You use cleaned and destemmed strawberries. Melt some white chocolate candy melts. Cover with sugar crystal sprinkles. Don’t forget to attach a green gumdrop for green stem.
See how simple they are to make?
And look how pretty and shiny they are, too?
So how about it?

The Most Festive Strawberry Christmas Lightbulbs Recipe
A Festive Strawberry Dessert Recipe to Brighten Up Christmas and the Holidays. 1. Melt the white chocolate candy melts according to package directions. 2. Dip one strawberry into the chocolate and tap off the excess. I found it was easier to use a toothpick, rather than a fork. 3. Immediately sprinkle with one color of sugar. Make sure to coat all sides evenly. Once coated, lay on a parchment lined cookie sheet and repeat with the other strawberries. Let dry completely. 4. Spread a dot of white chocolate on the bottom of the gumdrops, then place each one on top of the strawberries. You may have to hold it for a few seconds to let it harden. 5. Let dry and Enjoy these festive treats! The Most Festive Strawberry Christmas Lightbulbs Recipe
