This LED tree is pretty awesome:




I've actually driven by it many times on the way to my parents house.

LOL! I was just coming here to post a picture of that same tree. My dad lives down in Eagan now, and I drive 77 to come back home. I actually want to visit them solely for the 30s drive over the river I get to view this. I turn my radio off, I gaze, I almost die in car accidents.

I love this tree! They were talking to the guy on the radio the other day too, and he sounded so sweet! He was telling stories about people coming and asking if they can propose to their girlfriend under the tree and stuff like that.

My favorite decorations are just white lights, for the outsides of houses and trees. I don't like the multicolored lights as much.

Is there a podcast of this guy?

I prefer lights of all one color to multicolored lights. I like all white or all blue the best. When I was a kid though, I preferred multicolored strings.

I like lots and lots of lights, the gaudier and more colorful the better. Christmas should look like a paint store exploded. The only thing that bugs me is when displays are thematically inconsistent, like people who have a Nativity AND Santa Claus, or Rudolph next to The Grinch. NO. Even Christmas lights can can be disciplined.

These'll do:

I've also always liked how Philadelphia's Boathouse Row looks at Christmas:

I'd like them better if it were not expected to do them.

If they're good then they're good enough for June!

What do you mean it's time to take them down? NOO! I don't do stuff halfway. If it's nice it's nice enough to stay there until July!

Edit:
To put it into perspective, people insisted on a tree last Christmas and we gave in to it. That same tree is still up for this Christmas with everything still on it (except the candy canes which got eaten of course) It stayed there the entire year.

I like lights but not to the point of being obnoxious. I love fresh evergreen garland, wreaths and trees. The smell is so wonderful and cozy, especially with the fire going. I do like that single lit tree - really beautiful.

I like a personalized christmas tree. :) It was always my favorite element as a kid, and I think it's a combo of nostalgia and aesthetics at this point, for me. Several of my ornaments have a personal story behind them, whether I was given them, or I made them, or I really like them, etc.

(I have two little ones, one with breakables that my cat can't get at, and one with non-breakables. Photo= breakable one)

There is this house (okay, a mansion. surprise surprise) that has amazing lights that my husband is in love with. I will take a picture next time we drive by (soon).

I love Christopher Radko ornaments. All of ours have a special meaning.
