Ya or Nay on this outdoor Christmas decoration?

The plan is to decorate a 35'+ evergreen we have in our frontyard with C-9 lights.

I saw this and thought about putting it in front of the tree:

Are the elves cheesy looking?

she was very traditional- candels in the windows - everything just so

but she did let my brother put a light up frosty the snowman on the front stepsChat Icon

My "cheese-o-meter" has changed dramatically since having kids. Chat Icon

When I told my DH I wanted to buy the elves for the kids, he replied "Yeah, I know you do...it's for the 6 foot 1" kid." Chat Icon


I've been hoarding these from Ebay Chat Icon

Re: Ya or Nay on this outdoor Christmas decoration?

i'm very traditional and usually only like a wreath, red ribbon and some white lights... keep it simple.

but those elves on the ladder---that is really cute and i tihnk it would be adorable in front of a large tree!

I think your kids will love it! I never thought I'd do a colored light Christmas tree and found myself purchasing a 2nd tree 2 years ago for my DD! Chat Icon

Our family room tree will be multi-color lights too!!! Chat Icon I've been buying shatterproof ornaments so DD can help me decorate. Chat Icon I'd love to do tinsel, but it's just not practical with an exposed tree, 2 mobile kids and 2 big dogs. Chat Icon

Re: Ya or Nay on this outdoor Christmas decoration?

I love the elves with the tree, and I love that you and Jill are starting a decorating tradition.
I'm nutso with the kids too ... I change their bedding to holiday theme and decorate their rooms too. They'll appreciate it someday!
