Electric Christmas Luminaries

What began as a Spanish tradition involving holiday lighting has now become even safer and easier with the addition of electric luminaria or luminaries.  Luminaries are a decorating tradition, and now are available in an electrified version for holiday decor.

Electric luminaries can be used indoors or along a walk or driveway. They are perfect for Christmas decorating to welcome your guests.  Instead of trying to line up the traditional luminaria bag along your walkway, it is easy to lay a 15 or 30 foot length of connected translucent PVC sheaths with 4watt C7 bulbs for a holographic-look that runs on electricity.

The luminaria sets includes five luminaries with bulbs on a 15'-long light string or 10 Luminarias on a 30’ light string.  In addition, the clear bulbs can be interchanged with colored bulbs for different holiday effects.  For instance, you can use green bulbs for St. Patricks Day or Orange bulbs for Halloween!

Christmas electric luminaries for Southwestern or Spanish Traditions

Electric luminaries are sometimes called farolitos (the Spanish word for little lanterns) and are now used around the world and on every occasion, not just for Christmas, to illuminate patios and walkways during celebrations.

Luminarias (Spanish for “small bonfires”) were first recorded in the 16th century, when Spanish people lit bonfires along the roads to guide people to Midnight Mass on the final night of Las Posadas. This was done to reenact the story of Mary and Joseph’s quest for lodging in Bethlehem.  This tradition was brought to the Santa Fe Trail in the early 19th century, when settlers lit their entranceways with beautiful Chinese paper lanterns.  This tradition was introduced to Mexican Indians by Spanish missionaries, who lit paper lanterns for nine consecutive nights beginning December 16th.  It was representational of lighting the way for Christ’s birth and illumination of the spirit.

The modern tradition has evolved into lights decorating sidewalks, driveways, rooftops and windows as a way to guide travelers to their holiday destinations.  In every case, electric luminaria has become a tradition of welcome. The more common versions of luminarias are made of paper bags, sand and votive candles.  For those who live in cold, snowy, windy climates, electric Christmas luminaria are easier to manage than paper bags.
