HolidayLEDs.com, an online retailer of LED Christmas lights and decorative lighting, and UglyChristmaslights.com, announced the winner of the 1st annual co-sponsored Ugly Christmas Lights contest. Bartholomew Macasieb, of Texas was announced as the winner of the $350 first place cash prize.
“We had some very interesting entries and it was difficult to pick a winner,” said Philip C. Curtis co-owner of HolidayLEDs.com. Mr. Macasieb’s entry featured a pick-up truck bearing candy cane wheels with a lighted Christmas tree mounted in the bed. The truck was parked in front of a decorated home and was surrounded by presents and a giant inflatable Santa. “I’ve been doing this for a few years now and I’ve never seen anything quite like this—each year people amaze me with their creativity,” added Santa Claus of UglyChristmasLights.com. UglyChristmasLights.com was established in 2003 to display ugly, weird, and strange Christmas light displays.
Second and third place winners were also selected. The second place winner received a $100 gift certificate to HolidayLEDs.com and the third place winner received three sets of LED Christmas lights. The winning entries can be viewed at http://www.uglychristmaslights.com/.
