Charity Christmas lights display takes three weeks to build

A family from Lambton, Washington has covered their home in hundreds of Christmas lights.

Bradley Ilsley, 25, spent three weeks constructing the display by himself at his mother’s home.

Cartoon characters, plastic illuminations and a kaleidoscope of Christmas lights adorn the front of the house.

"I've been doing this for the Heal and Toe children's charity, it's all for a good cause and we just love doing it," said Bradley.
