Though winter is officially three weeks away—and even with yesterday’s brief blast of flurries—it still doesn’t feel very close after Toronto’s rainy November. However, the soggy weather hasn’t stopped festive enthusiasts from dusting off their inflatable Santa decorations and stringing up all sorts of lights and decorations on and around their homes. So today, in celebration of all those holiday go-getters out there, we bring you some of our favourite photographs of decorated houses as submitted by Torontoist readers to the Torontoist Flickr Pool.
Do you have a neighbour who gets all Clark Griswold every year? Maybe your family gets into the holiday spirit by decorating your yard with a full set of reindeer? We would love to see the sights of your best neighbourhood decorations. You can share your photos with the Torontoist Flickr community here.
