The difference is that when christmas is only at christmas, they would decorate in a way that they can remove it quickly when christmas is over. And I think there arent really much people that are willing to replace a whole fence just for the christmas decoration. Instead they would add things like those christmaslights etc to the fence. They can be removed easly when christmas is over.
What if a couple of houses went this far at Christmas, and most stayed with just minor decorations?
One might stay like this all-year round, which could be used for directions by questgivers.

That's a pretty good idea. I'll work on some minor decorations later.

Here's a more logical version (The fence and pillars are painted to look like candy canes in accordance to Octalot's paint quest idea):

Sorry, but the modified versions have not really improved. The perspective is still wrong. I have drawn a rough sketch for illustration:

Those images show the sugar canes from straight on, not from a 45° angle. Saphys illustration is correct.

Better to put it on suspend instead of forcing yourself on it.

True. I think we can use it as is.

Can: yes.
Should: no.
