What outdoor decorations do you usually put up?

[-:Undertaker:-]

It's a simple question, what outdoor decorations - if any - do you put up outside?

We never used to have any outside but I started a few years ago putting a Holly Wreath up outside on the door which looks lovely and we also have this little Father Christmas sign that we stick in the front garden too. But apart from that, no other outside decorations.

We put up lights along the front of the house, lights on a long bush, lights on a small round bush and a rope light reindeer. We also have the holly wreath.

We don't really put up any. We've sometimes put up a Wreath but that doesn't happen every year :P

Definitely a Holly Wreath. I have two which were handmade by the wife of the minister of my local church, and they were such a lovely couple that hanging it each year always puts a smile on my face. It's made out of pine cones stuck together so it's mostly monotone brown so I cut holly, fur trees and other green plants to attach around the cones.

As for lights - I attach bright white and blue LED fairylights to one part of the house and icicle lights on the porch and bay window. If I wasn't afraid of heights I would put some along the roof gutter. Bright white LEDs just frame the house perfectly and when it snows the effect is amazing. I also have a small outdoor Christmas tree by the door which I decorate with huge bell baubles and tinsel but I'm not doing it this year.

Holly wreath and fairy lights. I love having the wreath and I think it makes our home look so much more welcoming. Not so keen on the lights; we don't have very nice ones and they're a devil to put up but my mum insists. Wouldn't be bothered if she put them up herself as she's the one who wants them... :(

just lights around the little roof bit outside the door, i'd prefer to have more but my stepdad wont have it :(

[scottish]

Basically just lights. There is this ****** reindeer wireframe with lights but every year, I just hope it gets forgotten about as it is god awful.

[Jazz]
