Joanna Gaines: Queen of Interiors and Queen of Christmas Decor. Not only do we Fixer Upper fans eagerly await the drop of Magnolia's holiday collection each year, but also our annual look inside the Gaines household, all done up for the season. Needless to say, we weren't disappointed by this December's display.

Joanna, Chip and fam got things started way back in October, and in the weeks following, shared multiple peeks at their progress, including an entire series dedicated to their show-stopping Christmas tree (the main one of many scattered about their home).

The epic evergreen required a team to carry in, set up and, of course, decorate from top to bottom. For that task, Gaines and staff turned to none other than Home Depot's clear incandescent mini string lights—a whopping 20,000 of them, to be exact. Available in sets of up to 300 (spanning nearly 70 feet), these mini bulbs put the most perfect twinkling touch on the Gaines's family centerpiece, and are sure to bring the magic to perennials even half its size.

Home Accents Holiday

While it's probably too late for you to spruce up your own tree with them this year, it's not too early to stock up for 2026—especially since the warm string lights are marked down by 50 percent right now. I'm talking 100 lights for less than $2, and boxes of 300 for just $5.

Think about it. What could be a better Christmas gift to your future self than a Joanna Gaines-approved bargain?

Psst: If you really want to save some dough (and your sanity) next year, now's also a great time to nab one of Home Depot's viral Grand Duchess trees—which happen to come pre-lit!—as they're also currently on major sale. You know what they say: The early bird gets the fir (for less).
