Christmas Lights.... Doyou do it?

[ten*teeny*tiny*toes]

I have just watched the Living Room. It looks so expensive and competitive.
We have a mate that has bought a house in the street that has won the Christmas Lights competition for three years running.
Talk about under pressure LOL

Sure you'll find some Debra.

I thought the butterfly ones were kaput when they stopped working but it was only the battery in the solar thingie, didn't know there was one in there hahaaa...it's not a normal battery but not hard to find, so they are good value.

oh is that how they work lol

I didn;t even know they had a battery in them We have some frogs down our front steps, but one doesn't seem to work, so I guess its the battery

Tricky aren't they hahahaa

My MIL bought a heap of solar lights, quite expensive ones.  When they didn't work instead of taking them back, she threw them all out.  She didn't know you need to remove the plastic strip so they can start charging !!!

I might've done the same, not removing the strips, but luckily the rest of my famly know what they're doing lol

Christmas Lights.... Doyou do it?

No but I like to look at them.

 I just have little indoor decorations, the tree, and a wreath on the door. Use my Christmassy teatowels and tablecloths etc.

I like looking at them too Icy. We often go for a walk at night & it's really nice ATM checking out all the neighbours Chrissy lights

I bought them at target a few years ago. I think they have them out each year. They are multi coloured and have worked well each year.

[debra9275]

thanks Belinda, I have a local Target too, so will check them out as well

I don't do lights, I also don't even put a tree up in my house (would have to find a place in all the junk first).  I live alone and knowing my luck the dog would eat tinsel and it would get stuck etc.

I do admire people who go to all the effort of putting up lights and decorations, there is one street in my country town that goes all out.  At night you can see the glow from the surrounding hills.
