Light Up Your Garden For the Holidays

While I am not a huge fan of outdoor holiday decorations, such as inflatable snow globes the size of a car, or a sea of flashing decorations that annoy next door neighbours, I do look forward to a certain decoration. I love the way it looks after I line my garden fence with little white lights. I also taking things one step further by stringing more lights along the scalloped garden edgers.

With the edgers being so close to the ground, they provide much appreciated additional light for the walkway. When things get icy, or that ice melts into puddles, we want our visitors to be aware of what they are walking towards. Plus, the small lights look smashing, outlining the garden area like candy does a gingerbread house.

If you are interested, it only requires the following materials:

Strands of wire mini lights

Scissors

Steel garden edgers

Weatherproof electrical tape

Don’t forget to have fun, and be festive even when you are setting this up. I give you approval to be a bit grumpy taking it down, as those things are never appealing.
