2007 Christmas Lights Plans

Eric • 15th Sep 2007 • Christmas

I started the first step in planning our 2007 Christmas lights – drawing up the concepts. Maybe I’m brilliant, or lazy, but I just take a picture of the house, print it in grayscale & draft mode, so it’s really light, then use a pencil to draw in the lights. It’s not pretty:

When I’m done drawing in the lights, I try to think of how the 6 channels in my Mr. Christmas can control the lights. I label them A-F and identify what channels A-F will control on the house.

As you can see, this year the goal is to go UP. Last year, we had plenty of lights flashing on the first floor, but this year, I want to highlight the very top of the house. Still working on a way to get up there, without falling down!
