These lighted sticks are as good as my outdoor Christmas decor gets this year.
Just in time for Christmas… our weather has turned “frightful”… it’s single-digit degrees and we had our first snow day with 4 inches of snow.
But just 2 weeks ago… it was still gorgeous outside. Thank goodness I did more lighted stick creations then!
Look who got roped into helping me. Isn’t he cute digging holes in a tie?
Of course… Ava had to “help”.
You all know that “Help” really = clean up for mom. ****sigh******.
She’s too cute to be irritated.
Speaking of irritated… the “light fairies” apparently didn’t get the memo that I needed help sorting out the mess I must have left myself last January.
Seriously…. I didn’t put them away like that. I wonder if the “light-messer-upper”and the “sock stealer” are the same person???
These sticks are so cool. After Shauna and I had our original stick day, I found a house that cut down a tree and stole a bunch of limbs from the curb. They still have buds on them!
This is the front all lit up at night! I still love my blue chest in the entryway!
I am digging my garage sale sleds. Still searching for cheap ice skates to use out here also!
Ok… so I have ONE.MORE lighted sticks arrangement. Then, I swear I am done. Please call for an intervention if you see me touch one more stick.
The lighted sticks are in my master bedroom…It’s fun to have just a little Christmas decor in the room.
I hope your holiday season is more relaxed than mine seems to be right now. I feel overwhelmed with shopping, decorating, a bath remodel and another child’s birthday this week. Whew…. I will need a break after the Christmas break!
Miss you all and hope to blog more soon!

I love the ones on your front porch!!
Very pretty! We saw something like this in a store one day and my daughter asked if we could please buy the Christmas tree without any leaves on it!! LOL
No one is putting you away for loving this look, for sure not me! I’m headed outside in a minute to copy it in our bedroom 🙂

I love all the sticks!
Your poor husband doesn’t even get in the front door! Now that’s focus!
I agree about Christmas lights in the master bedroom. Too fun!
Glad to see you all linked up. I was beginning to worry!

Your “sticks” are gorgeous!!
love the sticks! I have sticks year round in my great room – super tall ones from olive trees. yummy!
your front porch looks great, love them lit up. had to laugh at your light pile – looks very familiar. at least you could FIND your lights – our tree lights are missing in action and I could NOT find these cheapy lights anywhere at the local stores this year……
just found your blog and I LOVE IT!!!!! Also really loving the blue chest in the entryway! 😉
So simple and yet elegant! I love it! I am stopping in from Nester’s place. To see my tour click on the ‘Christmas 2009’ tag on the left sidebar of my blog
