Christmas Lights Name Frame SVG

About this design

This is a frame for words. Two identical strings of lights, each with seven C9 bulbs hanging from a double swag, sit one above the other with a wide empty band between them. Type a family name, a short greeting or “Est. 2026” into that band and you have a finished sign.

The two strings are separate pieces, since nothing connects them. Keep them grouped while you resize so the gap stays even, and lift both with one sheet of transfer tape.

Color layers

• Dark green wires as the base layer
• Silver sockets
• Red, gold and blue bulbs

What to put in the middle

• A family name for a front door or a porch sign
• “Merry Christmas” in your favorite script
• A child’s name on a stocking or pillow
• Party details on an invitation
• A year for an ornament or a keepsake box
• “Home for the Holidays” on a farmhouse sign

Size and spacing

The design passes our cut checks from about 3.5 inches wide. Measure the text you plan to add: the space between the strings is about a third of the design’s height, so a name 2 inches tall needs the design about 6 inches tall, which means about 9 inches wide.

Step by step: personalized porch sign

1. In your cutting software, type the name you want and measure its height.
2. Set this design in the editor so the middle gap fits the name with a little room above and below.
3. Download the solid style and cut it, along with the name, from white permanent vinyl.
4. Paint a long board in a dark color and let it dry.
5. Apply the top string, then the name centered, then the bottom string.
6. Seal with a clear outdoor finish if the sign will hang outside.

Color ideas

• Gold wires with white bulbs and the name in red
• Black wires with multicolor bulbs on a whitewashed board
• Silver wires and blue bulbs with the name in navy

Good to know

Short names look best centered with generous space on each side. For long names, set the design a little wider rather than squeezing the letters, and choose a font with a similar weight to the wire so the sign feels balanced.

Variations to try

• Rotate it 90 degrees for a tall, narrow sign with strings on each side.
• Use only the top string by cutting one piece and hiding the other in your software.

Pairs well with

For a single string, use the Globe Bulb String Lights; for a closed border, the Christmas Lights Frame.
