Fairy lights

[haveyouopenedyourbowelstoday]

I'm a sucker for an indoor fairy light. Them and candles say cosy Christmas to me.
Has anyone got any creative ideas?
Thank you!

We did the dining room window. View is usually a wall!!

Last year I weaved some wire fairy lights through some garlands and put them on some of our window ledges, which looked really nice. I also weaved some through our bannister which just made the whole house feel so much more festive.

That's lovely!

I used to do clusters of them in the mantle - sort of intertwined with a leafy decoration thing.
I also sometimes put them in a glass jar with pine cones

(As well as in the windows etc)

I have extra long lights and have wound round curtain poles and down sides

Also along banisters, through some twisted willow in a large floor standing vase

Mostly though I use outdoors and light up various trees and shrubs

I have a bare wall so may try the fairy light Christmas tree this year. I hang a branch above our dining table each Christmas - it looks beautiful decorated with baubles, greenery and fairy lights. I might hang some glass jars with real candles for our meal this time.

I love your branch @waltzingparrot, it looks beautiful

We did a little table now known as The Christmas Table and shoved the ddog beds underneath.
Ddogs assumed new positions!!

across sideboards/units with some festive decorations/bowl of baubles etc. around windows-around the frames

I like to get the small real trees from b and m and just put lights on them in the kitchen and hallway rather than just have the lights

Loving the christmas tree wall thing! How do you make that??

@Hairwizard Ah, I've only got the picture from Pinterest, no instructions .

I presume it's green tinsel or garland zig-zagged up the wall using command hooks to fix and then zig zag the fairy lights down from top to bottom. I have seen them done with added baubles and Dec's too. Trial and error I think.

I like the new fashion of 'cluster' lights on a tree. So they're not evenly dangled around the tree branches but look more grouped together.

I love that branch!

I saw someone on here with a massive branch she had found with fairy lights all over it. I think it was either hung from ceiling or bucket of rocks?
I have beams, it took me hours but I put lights up and down ever beam- Was a thing of beauty. Wrap around mirrors for double the effect.
