Who has the best holiday display in DFW? Nominate yourself — or someone else

Though many are strict about waiting to decorate for Christmas until after Thanksgiving, some locals may already start to notice the red and white lights twinkling in their neighborhood.

The holiday season is the one time of year the majority of residents deck out their homes in lights, inflatable characters and garland. Some houses are more modest, with Christmas lights just lining the roof, while others are known to go all out and drive up their electricity bills.

We are looking to feature the not-so-humbly decorated homes with nativity scenes, candy canes, snowmen, reindeer, Santa or even the grumpy Grinch. But we need locals’ help.

If you think you have some of the best holiday displays in the Metroplex, or know of someone who does, nominate them so we can spotlight their festivity.
