Are you planning on turning your house into a Winter Wonderland this year? Then you must think beyond your front room. So how do you ensure that everyone who walks through your threshold is in a Christmassy mood?
Simple: you get the Christmas magic to start in your garden with the brightest lighted display!
Not only will the front of your house look sparkly and whimsical, but it can even complement the rest of your street's decorations. And, if nobody else has put them up just yet, it will certainly inspire them and motivate them to do so.
To help you find the right outdoor lighted display for your garden and needs, we made a list of our favorites, from the most traditional ones to some unique designs and characters that are guaranteed to turn heads.
