It may be impractical, but I really love the idea of putting giant ornaments in a window.  This would work really well in the large window in our foyer, if it wasn't so hard to get all of they way to the top of two stories to put them up there.

Ornament Displays

For the past few Christmases most of my most prized ornaments have been left safely tucked away in boxes thanks to my lovely cats.  Unfortunately they cannot be trusted with the tree or anything in their reach.  This year I'm going to get them all out, no matter what, so I'm in search of some ways to display them out of jumping range.  Luckily they cannot get onto the mantle, so I should be able to try a few of these.
