8.27.09 disco tree 1.jpgWalking in the Mission the other night, we suddenly found ourselves on a dance floor in the street! A neighbor had installed a small disco ball and lamp in the crook of a branch, and turned it on for all of the passers-by to enjoy...

8.27.09 disco tree 2.jpgWe were pleasantly surprised that the lights and overall effect was not as glam and gawdy as we would have imagined; rather it gave a soft, glittery twinkle to the tree and the sidewalk. Because the ball was nestled so nicely within a leafy bough, it created a canopy of illuminated leaves above, and a fluttery light show below.

We love this idea, and can absolutely picture it in our backyard. Thanks for sharing the twinkles, neighbor!
