Your design possibilities
Choose the focal points. Let the garden glow.
The right grouping can be more effective than lighting every plant. We look at scale, spacing and viewing angles to create a display that feels balanced with your home.
Shrubs & planted areas
Use lighting in selected shrubs to bring the holiday design closer to the ground and create continuity across the front of the property.
The approach home
Coordinate garden lighting with your roofline or entrance. The plan considers the view along the drive and from the front door, without treating decorative lights as a substitute for functional path lighting.
Exterior only. Standalone services depend on project size and scope. We confirm the specific lights, decorations, installation areas and timing as part of your custom plan.
Before installation
A design shaped by your landscape.
Tree size, branch structure, planting density and available power affect the display. We review the proposed trees and shrubs, installation access and the areas you want to keep clear before agreeing the scope.

Before we get started
Good questions.
Clear answers.
Can you decorate just one tree or a group of shrubs?
You are welcome to request a focused display. Whether we can take it on as a standalone project depends on its size and scope, which we review before confirming service.
Can every tree be wrapped in Christmas lights?
The design depends on the tree’s size, branch structure and access. We review the trees you have in mind and confirm which lighting treatments and areas can be included.
Can tree lighting match the lights on my house?
Yes. We can plan the house and garden together so the lighting feels coordinated. Tell us which exterior areas you want included when requesting your estimate.
What is included in the service?
Your agreed exterior display includes custom design, supplied lights and decorations, installation, seasonal maintenance, post-holiday removal and storage. We confirm the exact areas and materials with you before installation.
What happens if the display needs attention during the season?
Seasonal maintenance is included for the display we install. Contact Glow Artisans to report an issue so we can review it and arrange the next steps.
How do I request an estimate and confirm availability?
Use our holiday estimate form to tell us about your home and the display you have in mind. We review the location, project size and scope, and discuss available installation timing. Your requested date is subject to confirmation.
