Abstract: A decorative Christmas tree lighting system with individual light strands for each tree bough or branch is herein disclosed, comprising a central bus wire located near the trunk of the tree and a series of five (5) to ten (10) single-ended lighting strands originating in an outward or radial pattern therefrom the central bus wire. Each of these lighting “branch” strands has approximately ten (10) to twenty (20) individual light bulbs, depending on the overall size, and is routed along or around an individual branch or bough of the tree. Each individual light strand is held in place with at least two (2) clip means, one (1) near the outer end of the branch, and one (1) near the tree trunk, which help hold the lights in place. The central bus wire comprises a plurality of electrical plugs on each end to allow for end-to-end connection of multiple light systems. In such a manner, any size tree can be illuminated by simply adding additional light systems.
