2010 Static Display
This year, time & laziness got the better of us. Missing are the fence lights, the presents, the candy cans & stars along the path. Instead, we experimented with rope lights. I liked the letterbox & Stacey's job at wrapping the bench seat in rope light looked effective too, but the red rope along the path was soon overgrown by grass after 1.5 weeks and could not be seen from the road! We got rid of the multicoloured incandescent string from the gutters (most colours had faded after a few years) and replaced it with blue icicles, but they were VERY dull and didn't work well. This was their first & only season on display! Also new this year was the LED C9 shaped bulbs above the main window, and some hanging candy canes in the window. These fell down a few times during the season, as they were being held up with suction cups inside, and scared the crap out of us when they fell down in the middle of the night!
