I purchased 10 of these 18 inch Christmas star lights to avoid candles in each window.  Instead I put these stars in each window and I must say, the house looked so beautiful for Christmas that we took a picture of the house and share with family and friends.  But little did I know, my neighbors were taking pictures as well of the house because it looked so beautiful. I plan to purchase 5 more Stars as backups just incase I have problems with the previous ones I have purchased.
