p.1 #1 · Christmas background ideas

I usally get out to malls and christmas shops to get ideas for my christmas bakgrounds. This year I am not able to travel due to recent surgery and that my wife will be having some surgery soon. So I am fishing for some ideas, if you have a photo of a great christmas background scene please post it and help me out.
Thanks!

Drape some (white or a subtle colour)Voile fabric width free hanging from a crossbar. Hang amply Christmas lighting behind the drapes light net. The brighter the bulbs (watt per bulb) the more easy to balance them to the studio lighting aperture / shutter speed. If they come out bright enough and a star filter is put on the camera...it's Christmas

For full body shots I'd cover the floor with artificial snow.

Watch commercials on TV. The Xmas commercials are starting to come out.

Not much changes from year to year. Christmas is Christmas. What did you see last year? The year before?

I don't think he is really looking to reinvent the wheel. Just looking for inspiration.
