Where in the world do you store all of your decorations?

[Scuba_Dave]

In the 2nd floor knee wall storage that runs 3/4 of the house
In the basement furnace room on 2 different floor to ceiling shelves
In the basement on a shelf that runs the entire length of the front of the house
In the basement tucked up in between the floor joists
Stacked in the basement against one wall
On a new 4' shelving unit in the basement
In a new 5' x 15' storage area under the new sunroom
On 2 different 8'x10' loft storage shelves in the pool cabana
Once the cabana additon is done more room will be available
Under the sunroom in the cement enclosure that is about 12' x 12'

and soon under the new 8'x 24' deck
Then once the 24'x36' garage & great room are built I'll have more room. But just in case above the great room will be a 24' x24' walk up attic storage

cool, bb gun targets!


j/k, those are awesome. i like the hearses the most.

[Scuba_Dave]

Most of the inflatables deflate & are stored in a 12" x 12" box
The bigger models are in a 16" x 16" box
The Exclusive models (12' hearse, globes) are in a ~2' x 3' x 2' box

So are they all to be used in your yard or do you sell them?

The state nut house is just down the road Dave, I can see it from here. If you come to visit, I can give you a tour.

I have my own collection for my display - some of which are no longer sold & hard to find. I also sell them

Scuba,

do your neighbors like you?

[Scuba_Dave]

My neighbors love me, they can bring their kids down to see the house. At my son's birthday party one kid was saying to his mom to buy some, she said, Why? we can just come down & see Dave's decorations

One year due to weather & busy I didnt get the Halloween stuff up until mid-October. One neighbor mentioned the kids were getting antsy waiting

Who's your local electricity provider and do you know their stock symbol?

[Scuba_Dave]

Actually I'm going to LED & animated light show
Other have reported over 50% decrease in electric use this way
My bill for 2005 was under $500, the bill for 2006 was under $700
The setup for 2007 is 2x the setup for 2006
My normal bill goes from $225 to $325 (AC/pool-summer)
