Long live the lights!!!!!

pretty lights [awe emoticon]

So pretty!

And twinkly. Ooh thats a good word!

We call them 'ho ho houses' in our family. There's one in our local town and people drive by and stop and look at it.

All the money goes to charity.

Horrah for christmas!!!

Where did you get that picture of my house from!! I too love lights but more the clear, dare I say, classier variety?

look at this!!!!

I love christmas lights. Though last year Italy was invaded by Santas climbing on balconies. didn't like those.

Yes I wouldn't fancy living opposite a 'ho ho house' but they're good for a visit with the children.

I like a tastefull outside for my house.
I do have multi colored on my indoor tree though. I just can't resist them(not flashing, never flashing!) .
They remind me of my childhood christmases. We were cross when mum switched hers to white ones!!

i love them, too. i can't wait till this halloween biz is over so it's time to put out the Xmas deccies.

this year, i'm going to make fudge, bon bons and TRUFFLES to give out as gifts.

Yippee homemade gifts are sooooo christmassy!!!!!

so if i want a classy xmas tree i have to decorate it with non-coloured non flashing lights?

i think i can manage that!!

now what about the colour of the baubles?

I like goats too actually. I always want to get one for somebody but don't know who would not be upset about not having a RL girt iykwim.

gift

mmm, homemade sweeties.

my mama and i used to make them every year, and the best bit is tasting them as you creat them.

NA, I think you're supposed to think of a theme. 1 or possibly 2 colours and stick to it. No tinsel. Like in Debenhams!!!

I on the other hand go for multi colored evrything, including homemade childrens decorations.

what about that tinsel that's stringy that you sort of throw all over the tree?

DEF no angel hair. YUK!!!

Even on my non colour coordinated tree its banned. It look like spiders webs.
