Just a string of light on the balcony - actually I didn't put it up until today, but better late than never! I usually put it up in November, the darkness is so depressing, and leave it there until February or March.

We also got a new window candolier this year, those are really common here. I put it on the kitchen table, I love how it instantly gives the room a Christmassy feel. :)

No, I do not put them. I put a Christmas tree and a little decoration.

S.o.a.r.

I really like Christmas but this is the second year I just don't have the energy to decorate at all, so no Christmas lights for me... ^.^

In my student accommodation, it's too much bother to put up anything just to take it down when I go home for the holiday. I don't know if any lights are going up at home, but I suspect if so it won't be much. Dad really doesn't want to be bothered with it any more.

My sister, by contrast, has fairy lights up in her flat all year round, just because.

None of the above. We don't celebrate Christmas, but ever since we moved into this house, there's been a single string of lights hanging down from the roof for some reason. Don't know who put those up there, or when, or if they're actually connected to any kind of power source. They're just... there.

I do think they'd probably be really pretty if they were ever on, though.
Cannot have anything scented in the house, unfortunately. Seeking the unscented, magnetless variant of Thistle Whistle. (And wishing the other Sunny Scent ponies got similar ones, because they're lovely. *sigh*)

I have some, only cause I missed out last year as christmas really isn't a thing in China.  The school had a tree but that was all.

I've got a couple of LED candles and blinking lights as part of the Christmas display on my dining table. I don't have any lights on the windows, for the simple reason that this is the first year I'm living in my flat and I haven't worked out yet how it could be done (very high ceilings, plus no plug sockets anywhere near the windows). Next year, I might borrow a ladder and give it a go.

My yard is completely decorated. We literally cannot add another thing without popping the breaker. We have all kinds of decorations in the yard and I love it. It's random, but it's mine. lol

Just a simple string of warm-white outdoor lights for us - but they are very pretty as there are sections that hang down, almost like icicles.

We have white lights on our indoor tree, so they both look great in the evening darkness, when looking in at our window!

I used to put lights up, but now I live in an apartment on the back of the building, so no one would see my lights. Thankfully my neighbors in the front do put up lights.

I wasn't really sure what to put. We only have those laser things... Star shower or something.

I have lights up in my apartment year round so those totally count right? They're strung along the edge of the ceiling and super pretty. It's super relaxing to lay there in in the dark with them on.

we have some on our bushes and porch, nothing spectacular, but they make me happy. I love Christmas lights.

This is our first year in our new house, so we decided to have fun decorating it! We have quite a few lights outside and bought some cute light up woodland creatures to place outside too :)

I have some that I put up outside. Just what I can do by myself without a ladder. I really want a silver light up deer (buck), but they are pricey and always sold out for the really nice ones.
