cool - they look a bit small for street lamps but perfect for the ones in the front yard - I love that kind of stuff - just always too expensive then sold out before I can say cat.

I like the yellow glow they put out among the rubble and soldiers.
Very nice.

The one in the first pic looks to be broken.

J/K!.............. Nice find. And you found them at Lowes? I guess you never know where cool stuff may show up.

BTW, welcome aboard. I have enjoyed viewing your custom projects... keep 'em coming.

Every year Lowes puts out Christmas Village items like that. They're pricey though. I THINK Lemax makes them but I may be wrong. They certainly look the same though, which if you want Lemax I suggest keeping your eyes out for Michael's Craft ads in the sunday paper, as they usually have a 40 or 50% off coupon and you can get Lemax village stuff there half price.

The stuff at Lowes is either the same, or a very similar brand, and it's usually pretty expensive. You can also get that stuff at Sears Grand, and other stores (I've found cheaper versions at even Big Lots for pretty cheap).

There's other useable stuff too... Lemax makes a very cool roll-up vinyl mat made to look like cobblestone street, or brick street/sidewalk. They have a big flat one, and smaller sidewalk style strips.

I love Michaels because they always offer those coupons to you, but usually the Lemax junk is at least 25% off anyway, so you maybe can't use teh coupon but you'll get it cheaper anyway. I could spend lots of money in that store though, just on this hobby.
