Holiday lights: Here's your chance to spellbind us!

It's almost time to bedazzle Newsday and its readers with your holiday light display.

If you're decorating the exterior of your home for the holidays, we want to see what you've done. If it's bright and festive enough, it may be featured in LI Life in December along with other displays across Long Island.

The deadline for submissions is Dec. 2. Send online entries to lilife@newsday.com, and put "Holiday Lights 2015" in the subject line. Or mail submissions to 235 Pinelawn Rd., Melville, NY 11747-4226, c/o LI Life editor/Holiday Lights.

Entries of displays that are synchronized to music are welcome, so include a viewable link if possible. If you're also collecting money for a worthy cause, please indicate that in your submission.

For more details about submitting entries, see the guidelines listed below.

SUBMITTING ENTRIES

Newsday chooses homes for the Holiday Lights edition based on nominations from homeowners or their friends, relatives and neighbors.

The deadline for submissions is Dec. 2. Some steps to help you get ready:

1) Entries should include photos of your current lights and what days and time they are on. Entries of previous displays will not be considered.

2) Light displays featured in LI Life in the past three years are not eligible for submission but can be included in a listing of displays to visit across Long Island.

3) To include your house in the listing of displays, send an email to lilife@newsday.com with your family's name, the numbered street address and the town.
