This turned out to be a pretty sizeable project, and it takes two people to move it around because it's so unwieldy and heavy, but it's been a popular part of this display for quite a few years. I don't use it every year, but because it uses rope light, it's super-low maintenance and fills up a lot of visual space.
I came up with a concept while sitting in the choir loft in church one Sunday morning, and I drew a little sketch in the margin of my program
I found a graphic on the Internet that was close to the vision that I had for the choir, so I made a screen capture of that.
