ABSTRACT:
A decorative lighting system uses a plurality of figurines, usually a family of characters appropriate for a specific holiday, such as: jack-o-lantern, ghosts, witches, black cats, skeletons, etc. for halloween or Santa Clause, candles, candy canes, reindeer, etc. for Christmas. The figurines are all plastic, preferably blow molded with a sloping top that provides a weather resistant roof. The figurines may be made to hang from above or to be supported on the ground, or both hanging and supported. Light bulbs of an indoor/outdoor string of Christmas tree lights may be attached to the figurines by an elastomeric coupler. An adapter mounting plate enables the figurines to be substituted for fixtures on posts in a permanent ground lighting system.
