Lights in the Window

  

 Lights in a front window at holiday time are festive and attractive.

Colored lights are nice, but, ( personally thinking,) all white lights are best.

 Even though the vast number of plastic totes containing Christmas ornaments, Santas, and tons more are impossible to count, they are safe in a storage unit.

The scraggly amount of decorations that could be located from  storage have been accounted for, recorded, and placed in the apartment living room.

A very small tree with colored lights will be the main tree in the apartment this Christmas. 

The new apartment is lovely but terribly small compared to other years and locales.

This is a year of adjusting.  

 Back to the two strings of lights in the front window...

They frame a beautiful Santa in a velvety dark cranberry outfit.

His beard is  a mass of curls.

 

The lights have been attached to the window with rectangles of tape but they keep untaping.

When the lights come apart, they flop down around Santa.

I'm not giving up, though. 

 Santa surrounded by lights makes a dapper figure in the window in my new neighborhood.
