Twinkly Gets The Winter Fun Started Early



Anyone who’s serious about Christmas knows about Twinkly. Their lights can transform your ho-hum set of twigs into a truly showstopping Christmas tree that tops off the festive season. How? Twinkly have this great set of Xmas lights which you drape round your tree as you would normally, but then the Twinkly app works it’s magic using your smartphone to map the positions of the lights to show off special effects that are perfectly synced no matter how incompetently you put on the lights. It’s awesome and really is a wonder the first time you do it.

Christmas is still a few months away but given the time of year Twinkly are reminding us that they can put on quite the show for Halloween too. Less red and gold and more green, orange and purple.

Twinkly do a wide range of lights from strings to curtains to squares and tubes. I really didn’t know how many different types they had to offer until quite recently.

Finally, in a piece of sheer marketing genius, Twinkly have signed up Chevy Chase as their 2024 Christmas Ambassador. You will have to have watched National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation to understand the brilliance of this. If you haven’t see the film, put it on your watchlist for the holiday season. Suffice to say that Christmas lights feature heavily in the film. Here’s Chevy aka Clark Griswold upping his game.

I can’t believe that they even do reindeers

If you are in UK, the entire range is available from the Twinkly website, B&Q, Very and Currys. There are some discounts on now if you want to be prepared before the Xmas rush.
