I usually just put a single white fake candle in each window. Looks nice and it’s way easier than going balls out. Never got around to it last year. Maybe this weekend. ---

i have 6 shrubs i wrap in bush nets, 3 on each side of my front door, and two ornamental pines on each side i wrap in a strand of lights that do that twinkle shit. put a candle in each of the 2 pair of double hung windows on the front of the house. wreath wrapped in lights and a candle in the center. it’s reasonably classy… nothing too Griswald Xmas. i’ll snag a pic once i get motivated to go outside ---

I put these up last weekend. Using a timer rocks. Ran out of lights and ambition to climb shit. Good enough for now 🙂 You can’t tell but the top lights are blinky and the bottom ones solid. ![http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j223/mjaetdti/House/xmaslights2009b.jpg](http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j223/mjaetdti/House/xmaslights2009b.jpg) ![http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j223/mjaetdti/House/xmaslights2009a.jpg](http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j223/mjaetdti/House/xmaslights2009a.jpg) Those icicle lights are in a pricker bush, that was fun hahaha. ---
