Hobby Lobby is where we got our Mickey Mouse parts from. Can’t wait to add the lights to the frames.

Dave, that is awesome! Thanx for the idea, I’ll make at least 2 of these. Another thought: in this day and age, there are countless choices of colorful light strings you can use. I’m glad I saw your post.

Just make sure your connections are tight. If you’re using LED net lights , then your power draw should be ok. Don’t understand why snow is not ok but rain is... You know what looks really nice is when you mix in twinkle net lights, but make sure they match the white light intensity of the ones you own. Look great on a large bush or small tree. HD sells them for 19.95 box.

That’s the spirit! Christmas only comes around once a year. You don’t want to wait until next year to decorate. Lexington Ohio, between Cleveland and Columbus. Lived in a suburb west of Cleveland until last fall. Better get started before the weather changes. Keep us updated.

Listen here. In my 60’s and have loved Christmas decorating since I saw the animated figures in downtown Cleveland (Higbee’s) when I was just a kid. Presently, we are about to move, just 5 miles, but a bank owns that house, and they are taking their sweet time closing the deal. This puts a move date sometime during December. There will be little or no time to decorate. So I want you to develop a plan for decorating your house, using the lights and displays you own. Develop this plan tonight before you go to sleep. Do it for me, ‘cause I won’t be able to. Take a pic and post it here once it’s set up. Cool.

Just did a little research on these Lumen Play lights. Not available at Apple stores. Reviewers on Amazon Prime suggest not buying them due to difficulties with programming. I saw two boxes available on Amazon but did not understand the pricing. I know you need a starter set to begin with. Youtube people seemed to like them. If I’m putting my $ into a product that I will use for a month every year, I want to ensure it will be supported and will last 3 or 4 seasons. What else is out there similar to Lumen lights?

Hey, Big J: if you posted a pic of the book, we cannot see it..... what book? OK, yeah, just found it in your second post. Wow, those prices are too rich for my blood.

Wow, Rich, pretty thorough with your info. Was wondering if you had used these and would you recommend? Thank you.

Wondering if anyone has any info on a product at Lowe’s made by Illuminations, called the LED LIGHT WIZARD. It has 4 ports to plug in your LED Christmas lights and you can choose 10 different displays. OK for outdoor use. $24.99 @ Lowe’s.

Ck out Dynapac Rotating Motors, website, based in Utah. Look under indoor rotators—outdoor ones are $. I have a heavy-duty outdoor rotator. It will outlast me.

REALLY LIKE THE RED COLOR IN THAT MAILBOX! Hoping I can find it in Florida.

Awesome. Wish there were Menard’s in FL.. Paint looks real good.

Good find! 😃

Darn! I’m never that lucky. Great pick-up Big J.

When you are feeling well enough, please update us.

I guess it didn’t work after all—today I’m getting email exchanges between Big J and Slankard. I gotta figure this out.

Yes, it seems to have worked. You guys are great, thank you for your help.

Thank you Scottrob. I did as you suggested; will wait and see how that works. 👍🏻

Anytime I post a comment to someone else’s post, I’m getting all kinds of responses sent to my personal email. I’m not asking for these responses, but they’re piling up, including responses between two members like Donna and Big J. So how do I stop them?

Darn!! What a catch, Big J. I’m always looking for similar offerings, but never this lucky. Just goes to show, it’s never too early for Christmas shopping.

I agree. Shame all that had to come to an end when Higbee’s closed. Seeing those animated displays is what spiked my interest and enthusiasm toward displays that move and entertain. Nothing wrong with lights-only on a house, it’s just that I want something different than my neighbors. Thnx for your response.

Yes, since you asked: I hate ‘Grandma got run over by a reindeer’.
