Q: Where do you buy your Christmas Lights?
A: In our Display we have around 85,000 lights that we have collected over a 15 year period, currently we purchase our lighting from numerous retail outlets. We recommend a visit to these retail outlets including.

Q: Where do you keep the lights when it is NOT Christmas?
A: We had a a roof space conversion to store all our Christmas decorations.
Q: How long did it take to set up the display?
A: As I am now working full time, I start doing planning and organising in August and hanging lights from mid September.
Q: Do you leave the lights up all year?
A: No, we do not leave the lights up for several reasons
--- Firstly, several years back we left some lights up and none of them worked by the next Christmas so we had to take them down anyway. In terms of finance it is better to take them down and preserve their life span.
--- Secondly the lights on our lawn and garden make yard work like mowing challenging so better for practical reasons to remove them.
---.Thirdly, our displays design changes each year as existing lights malfunction and need to be replaced and as new items are added.
Q: Why did you start and why have you continued for the past 14 years?
A: 15 years ago I was shopping at the Christmas Cave in Alexandria (no longer trading in NSW) with my family and we decided it would be fun to hang some lights outside and bought 2 boxes of 144 clear fairy lights and 15 years on the display has now grown to around 85,000 LED and Rope light bulbs. We continue to create our Christmas Display each year because of the significant community enjoyment and support our display brings.
Do you buy new lights every year?
A: Yes, each year you all ways have lights that malfunction beyond repair which need to be replaced, each year we replace the items that break and buy additional items to build our display.
