One of most cherished memories many people have during the holidays is the annual tour of the neighborhood to view festive Christmas decorations on every neighbor's front lawn. The display of outdoor lawn decorations is a warm way to spread the joy of yuletide season to friends and family. There is such a variety of lawn decorations that many home owners try to outdo each other with flashy Santa Claus in a sleigh or playing golf, a stunning large Snowman, or a holographic Snoopy and Charlie Brown display.These brightly lit displays are often well-organized and impressive, with many flashing lights. Families especially love to view these decorations, often comparing homes to discover which home has the best lawn decor. Cities often sponsor competitions for the best Christmas lawn decor during the holidays.
If this is the first time for a homeowner, included here is some helpful advice in choosing and setting up outdoor decorations. First of all, start shopping early in the season so that there are more styles available. Don't go for overdone gaudy or showy displays, instead go for the simple and elegant that communicates a message. Keep in mind that the electric bill will be higher during this time, due to the extra use of lighting. Budget for the increase in expense, and also get an outdoor timer that will automatically turn lights on and off.
