We will be camping in our MH for the first time this year during the Christmas season. I want to decorate our campsite for Christmas. What have you seen or done that stands out and where do you find Disney Christmas decorations?
 
This was our site in December. The wreath was about 3' across and really simple to make - I just bought 3 pre-lit wreaths (on clearance at WalMart) and zip tied them together (which made it easy to pack). The "ears" wreaths were a size smaller than the main part. :santa:

People go all out for decorations at Christmas.

Just start looking at THD, Lowe's Wal-Mart, eBay, disneyshopping.com, etc, you'll find the inflatables. String Lights, Rope Lights, and LOTS of extension cords.

Have fun!!
 

Oh, one other thing to keep in mind in case you are thinking of going BIG, there is limited power available. If you are in a 50amp RV, you will have a 30 amp and a couple of 15 amp sockets available. If you're in a 30 amp RV, reverse that. It sounds like a lot of power, but I know some folks with big displays who dance right up to (and occasionally over) the limit. Inflatables and LED lights use relatively little power, but strings of incancesdents (especially big C9s) can really add up quickly.

This is so true last Christmas we were in 1701 and our motorhome is a 50amp, I was using the 30amp and the other 15 amp on the power pole to power all of my decorations and one afternoon we had both AC's on and the convection oven on at the same time and tripped the breaker to the whole site. Took maintaince about an hour to find the breaker. At the time, the only decorations that I had on were the 11 inflatables none of the other lights. :banana:
