Put a few ideas down on paper

Develop a Christmas wonderland display. Put small trees, and small lighted buildings on your display table, similar to those used by electric train hobbyists. Include figures of small children and Christmas shoppers rushing about with packages in their arms. Use strings of LED lights to hang about overhead as if they were outdoor mall shopping lights. Now add a spotlight for emphasis and a few solar lights to conserve energy. Particularly if you are retired, this is a great project to begin now for the Christmas holidays. By starting in October, you have plenty of time to get it done.
