Does anybody here cover their stuff and do a final reveal on TOT night?
I don't want a lot of 'tourists' driving by before the day and was considering having things in place, but covered in black plastic. My problem this year is the severe time crunch. I will probably have a whole week's lag between putting things out and TOT.
Some things like spiderwebs and outdoor lighting can be a do-ahead. But dragging out all my figures and 40+ lighted jack-o-lantern will take too long for day-of. I am thinking about staging things in outdoor clusters and covering each cluster with black plastic. I doubt if anyone will bother a pile of plastic held down with a few bricks and boards.
We live in a very safe, but isolated area.
