Lighted stars in your windows and mini lights at your entry sounds like a nice display. That is the kind of thing I have. If that is not a display.. what is? |

Friday I put those candolier things in the windows. I've got two that have 3 lights each and they go in the two double windows in the living room. I've got two more than have 5 lights each and they go in the double windows in the bedroom. The single windows get one candle each and everything is on a timer to come on with a few seconds of each. The oversize Christmas wreath went on the front door and that's it for me. The effect is quite nice. |

The tree will be up and decorated on the 22nd when my son's girlfriend and I will have lots of carols and drinks to celebrate the occasion. If I know my son & my husband they'll be watching TV while we gals do up the tree -- their contribution to the effort will have been bringing in the tree and putting it in the stand. The older two kids were always more interested in the tree than their brother. Now they have their own trees to set up. Gabby |

Perhaps when they're a little older. I do secure those candoliers with extra long 'bread ties' for lack of a better word. You know, those very long twist ties that come with many appliances. I use one in each window to secure one candle branch to the window handle (hope this makes sense), otherwise Smitty would have them scattered on the floor everyday. |

I don't do Christmas... I do seasonal displays, now is "Winter"... I have my tractor out near the head of the drive with it's big bright yellow snow plow at the ready. It is snowing now, and if it snows enough I will build a couple of snowpeeps... one with gigantic breasts sporting crabapple nipples and snow boy with a huge carrot sticking up you know where. Oh, wait a sec...! hehe Sheldon Cornbroom |

Xmas decorations. Have you begun?
We bought a new Christmas tree this year (artificial, with 1250 white
lights pre strung on it--7 1/2 feet tall!) It's beautiful, nicest tree we've ever had. Also the heaviest. And largest. And most stable. I thought that the tree was so prickly and dense that there would be NO WAY our cats could climb it. I was wrong. This morning, I heard one of the Christmas ornaments chime--snuck out to the living room, and there was our black cat, Stitch--lounging across several branches in the tree--about 5 feet high. He looked very contented and most pleased with himself too.....lol.... Stitch is about 10 pounds--but the tree did not fall over. So, I think we made a good choice. I usually put the Christmas tree up the day after Thanksgiving, and reluctantly take it down sometime mid to late January. --r3 |

We put our lights up shortly before Thanksgiving, simply because the weather was co-operating -- we don't do any elaborate displays, just some simple light strings along the house and fence.

I've put out a few snowman things in my house. Nothing outside yet. I have
a neighbor kitty-corner from me that put up a HUGE display of white lights that encompasses their whole front yard on Thanksgiving. 15 years I've lived near them and I'm always surprised when I see it so early. I was all proud of the few things I had gotten out early. Then went to the grocery store after it had gotten dark and realize that I had done really nothing at all compared to their monstrosity of a light show.

The effect is stunning, really. > -L. > we put our tree up a few weeks before xmas. I haven't gotten around to it yet. I like to put tinsel garlands on the bookshelves, too I also have a few votive holders that have little houses on them, so the lights shining through looks like the windows are lighted. THose I usually wait till xmas morning to put out to enjoy while ellie opens gifts and we eat breakfast (doughnuts, fresh fruit, hot chocolate and bacon this year) -- saerah "Peace is not an absence of war, it is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice." -Baruch Spinoza "There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened." -Douglas Adams |

I'd love to do exterior ones because my house is so cute when it snows, like a little Thomas Kincaid cottage, but it's beyond my capabilities and time available. Between seasonal guests and work, this is a busy time of year. Sue(tm) Lead me not into temptation... I can find it myself! |
