Can you guess what I did on Saturday morning? Above is your first clue.
Most of you know me and should know what I do.
I always do it on Black Friday, but this is 2020, most things are different that I might do.
I started to do this in way back in 1992,
and every year I whine to you
about What I did and have to do.
I ordered 6 foot wide 9 foot long Drape of Fairy Lights from Amazon
I struggled and fussed and carried ON..
I whined and whined like I had swallowed a bone.
My shoulders hurt, oh what did I do?
My back is killing me, like you kicked me with your shoe.
I whined out loud, saying, I hate these lights, and the work it takes,
Linda Chapman could do this becauseshe has all it takes.
She really knows how to decorate,
Her hubby will help her to,
My hubby would not help me, even though he said I do.

Well, I know you hate cleaning the nook. You did good, the lights in the last picture are perfect, it looks like the nook is dripping light.
we love the lights... well done... we need a lot of lights this time and yours are extra wonderful
Who would have thought that lights would be hard? I would be lost, but Linda would have them perfect in five minutes flat.
It gets harder every year. I keep putting it off but the village has a turning on the lights event on the first of Dec. so I must get to it soon.

So far in life, I have managed to NOT buy into fairy lights. Long may that continue... YAM xx
An early start on the nook. I always enjoy seeing pictures from it even if it is a real pain in the patootie for you to do. Those lights are going to look awesome when everything is back in there.
Hello,
I love the lights in your nook, they looks so pretty. You did good!
Take care, enjoy your day! Have a great new week!
I just know once you're done with the little monsters, it will be beautiful!!!
I'm sorry this chore aggravated your shoulder and back ... but it looks so darn pretty! Has Beau noticed?
Never thought it would happen, but ya. My back and knees are always reminding me, their warranty's about to expire.
I give you a standing ovation. It looks very nice to me.

Looks great so far! I can't wait to see when you're finished!
Oh, it is so worth the effort
Didn't know nothin' about fairy lights, and now I am envious.
Oh but, the results are spectacular .
You DONE Good!!!
What a pain but you always hang in there till the job is done.
Kudos to you Sandra.

You make the prettiest messes!! I love nook decorating season and am glad you are doing it early this year!
I guessing you cleaned your nook. The lights look great!
People start Christmas so early in this country. I put my things up right before Christmas and take them down right after the first of the new year. That way, the Christmas spirit is brand new and I can enjoy it over the 12 days of Christmas. Since I'm alone here, I don't even wait for the 12 days to take them down.
Don't get me wrong, your decorations are gorgeous and I understand that that traditions differ from country to country. I hope you didn't hurt yourself putting them up.
LOL- I especially like the whining part! lol. And yes- Linda Chapman can do just about anything! But she has Louis Dean to help her, too! xo Diana
Your lights look lovely!! I don't do lights, but I can sure admire other's work. Blessings!
It's beautiful!
I LOVE them!!! They are gorgeous! What's not to love? Sorry it wore you out but if you leave them up long enough - they are so worth the time and trouble!
You have me beat! I have not got a light curtain yet. But I will be shopping Amazon in the next few days.....
You know you can toss that Charlie Brown Christmas tree in! The lights just make it all the more special.
So pretty!!! Decorating mine draws the line :)
Well I had to imagine that it might have to do with the seasonal events.
You are one amazing lady! THanks and grateful to see your decorating art here.
great photos of your nook. i love lights. i need to replace most of my xmas decorating light strings this year as too many missing bulbs...
I will have to order some of these from Amazon. They really are pretty!
