Looks lovely! I particularly like santa and his sleigh on the roof and the church. A great set up, thanks for showing us.

Great looking display.  Nicely put together and really captures the holiday mood.

For lighting - you might try one of the battery operated tealight/votive candles, like they sell for jack-o-lanterns etc. They have a nice low light level and flicker like proper candlelight. Check the Lemax stuff at the craft store (probably Michaels?). They make some mini Christmas lights. I am using 5 strings of the colored ones (50 lights on a string - so 250 lights total) for my Santa Castle this year. They are a perfect size. http://www.lemaxcollection.com/detail--12-Sparkling-Mini-Light-String-0-2928.aspx

Great minds think alike!!! I went to Michaels this morning and picked up a string of those Lemax lights (all Lemax 40% off this week). I also found spotlights from the same line that I am setting up as we speak to light the outside of the church. Thanks for your help  :)

Some more pics, I added some lights (still need more), and added a path to the house. I also changed the paper on the skating rink.










EDIT: Have just realized photos are very blurry, I will try to get some better ones tonight  :)
