One dark bulb should never sideline a whole strand. This collection keeps your lights alive: replacement bulbs in every classic size, plus the cords and socket strands to build or rebuild displays exactly the way you want them.

The Fix and the Build
Stock up on candelabra incandescent replacement bulbs, transparent globe bulbs in eight colors, Kismet and night light replacements, and C7 and C9 socket strands in brown, black, or white for custom runs along the roofline. Keeping a box of spares with the decorations is the oldest trick in the Christmas book, and it still saves the season at least once a year in most households. Socket strands also open the door to fully custom displays: pick a cord color that disappears against the house, then pattern the bulbs however you like.

Sized and Sorted
Bulbs are organized the way most decorators actually think about them, by what is burned out and what it screws into: browse incandescent bulbs by size, switch to efficient LED bulbs, or wire something original with DIY light cords. Our types of Christmas lights guide explains the size names if C7 versus C9 has ever slowed you down.

Keep Every Socket Glowing
