Tell us about your Christmas lights, holiday-decorated office

Looking for ooh-la-la lights

Do you have a special outdoor Christmas lights display spreading cheer this year? Maybe you’ve added music, a forest of trees, new structures or something nobody has even thought of. The Eagle is compiling a map of Christmas lights and will feature some lights in a story in the Go! section on Dec. 18. Send a short description of your decorations, your address, daytime phone number, and jpeg photos if you have them to acalovich@wichitaeagle.com by Dec. 7, and put “lights” in the subject line.

Then go to www.Kansas.com/local and click on the Christmas lights link to add your address and upload a photo or video of your lights.

Show us your decorated office

It’s hard to contain the merriment of the holiday season within the confines of house decorating. After all, a lot of life occurs at work. Do you go all out to decorate your desk, cubicle or office as well? Or do you work at a place that pulls out all the stops to be jolly? Let us know, and we may feature your workplace in the Home & Garden section before Christmas. E-mail brief details and a jpeg photo along with your name, workplace and daytime phone number to acalovich@wichitaeagle.com by Dec. 7. Put “office decor” in the subject line of your e-mail.
