Sparkle Hearts · Corner Lot

Sparkle Hearts layout for a Corner Lot

Maximal, glittery and completely unembarrassed. Hearts at every size, everything catching light off everything else, and no attempt at restraint anywhere in it.

To-scale site plan for a Corner LotA to-scale overhead site plan of a corner lot, 60 feet of street frontage by 75 feet deep, with the house set back 25 feet from the front sidewalk. The street runs along the top of the drawing. 7 of 12 marked positions are filled. Filled: the star; sidekick, left; sidekick, right; path and perimeter lights; the corner moment; roofline and porch; side yard scene.

Drawn to scale. Everything is measured in feet from the front sidewalk, and your front door is 80″ tall if you need something to check against.

this theme on this shape

Sparkle Hearts fills 7 of this shape's 12 marked spots for free, and 7 of them once every budget is unlocked.

The paid tiers do not fill any more of them on this shape. What they buy here is a better piece in each spot rather than extra spots.

With everything unlocked, four spots stay empty because this theme has no piece written for that kind of spot: under the porch roof, along the eaves, porch posts and rail, the front door.

Another stays empty because its one piece for that spot is already standing elsewhere in this yard: deeper, off to one side.

first, the deal with your yard

Read this before you buy anything

You have two front yards now, whether you signed up for that or not. The side gives you 40 to 70 ft of continuous frontage, way more room than a normal lot, and that makes a corner the best possible shape for a big spread-out scene. The trade-offs: anything flat and one-sided is showing its blank back to one of your streets, and wind comes at you from two directions with no neighbor in the way, so every stake and tether that came in the box gets used. The real headache is power. Your outlets are on the house and that corner might be 40 ft away.

Who's looking, and from where

  • Head on from the front sidewalk
  • Head on from the side street
  • The diagonal from the intersection, which is the one everybody actually sees

The classic mistake

Decorating the front door and leaving the whole side street bare. Half the neighborhood sees that side first.

Check this one thing

Most cities cap how tall anything can be in the little triangle by the intersection so drivers can see through it. The number is different everywhere. Look yours up before you fall in love with something 8 ft tall.

The Do it yourself plan: every piece, its spot on the drawing, how big it is, how many and what it costs.
Spot What to get How big How many Cost
A 40 in. Lighted Heart (opens in a new tab) Amazon
The star. Dead center on the front walk, 8 to 10 ft back from the porch steps. Pick something with actual sides to it, not a flat cutout. One of your two streets is going to be looking at the back of this.
3' 4" H 1 $49
B 18 in. Lighted Heart Stakes, 6 pack (opens in a new tab) Amazon 6 pieces
Sidekick, left. Left of the walk, 5 ft out from the edge. Keep it under about 60 percent of the centerpiece height.
1' 6" H 1 $24.99
C 24 in. Lighted Heart Wreath (opens in a new tab) Amazon
Sidekick, right. Right of the walk, mirroring the left one. Same distance out, same height.
2' H 1 $24.99
D Pink Solar Path Stakes, 10 pack (opens in a new tab) Amazon 10 pieces
Path and perimeter lights. Both edges of the front walk, then keep the line going along the side yard. Do not stop at the corner of the house. This run is the thing that ties your two street faces together.
1' 3" H 2 $46.78
E Heart Yard Signs, 4 pack (opens in a new tab) Amazon 4 pieces
The corner moment. Set back 6 to 8 ft from the actual corner point, and keep it low. Most cities cap how tall anything can be right there so drivers can see through the intersection. Look yours up before you buy something for this spot.
1' 8" H 1 $16.99
F Pink Mini Lights, 300 count (opens in a new tab) Amazon 300 pieces
Roofline and porch. One continuous run along both street-facing rooflines. Skipping the side roofline is the number one corner-lot regret.
2" H 2 $25.98
G Bare Arch, Dressed Build it
Side yard scene. The build says pick one material and stop. Ignore that here: this theme is meant to be too much, so cover the frame completely. The limit is not taste, it is the twenty pound crown load, so use many light things rather than a few heavy ones. Foil hearts, tinsel garland, small shatterproof baubles and a light run wound the full length will bury a frame this size and weigh under five pounds. Put the light source off to one side rather than head on: glitter needs an angle to bounce from, and lit straight on it goes flat and looks like plastic.

the plug situation

5 things need an outlet, about 1 amps all together. That all fits on one 15 amp circuit, you are fine. Outdoor GFCI outlets only, and leave a drip loop in the cord at every plug so rain runs off instead of in.

You will also need

The cord is the part everybody forgets, and stores run out of them at the peak of every season. Outdoor rated only, and plugged into a GFCI outlet.

About $48.94 of hardware, on top of the $219.73 of decorations. Buy it once and it comes back out every year.

Image prompt for this exact list
Photorealistic evening photograph of a two-story suburban house on a corner lot, 60 ft of street frontage with a 25 ft front setback, photographed from the street intersection at a 45 degree diagonal angle so that both the front face and the side face of the house are visible in the same frame, camera height 5.5 ft. The yard is decorated in a sparkle hearts theme. Maximal, glittery and completely unembarrassed. Hearts at every size, everything catching light off everything else, and no attempt at restraint anywhere in it. Decorations, in position: 1. The star: one big wire heart densely wrapped in warm pink light, standing alone, 3.3 ft tall. Dead center on the front walk, 8 to 10 ft back from the porch steps. Pick something with actual sides to it, not a flat cutout. One of your two streets is going to be looking at the back of this. 2. Sidekick, left: six flat hearts on stakes at staggered heights, outlined in warm red light, 1.5 ft tall. Left of the walk, 5 ft out from the edge. Keep it under about 60 percent of the centerpiece height. 3. Sidekick, right: a heart-shaped wreath of red and white blooms with light woven through it, 2 ft tall. Right of the walk, mirroring the left one. Same distance out, same height. 4. Path and perimeter lights: 2 of them, a line of short stakes glowing soft pink along the edges of a walkway, 1.3 ft tall. Both edges of the front walk, then keep the line going along the side yard. Do not stop at the corner of the house. This run is the thing that ties your two street faces together. 5. The corner moment: four flat pink and red hearts on short stakes clustered low in the grass, 1.7 ft tall. Set back 6 to 8 ft from the actual corner point, and keep it low. Most cities cap how tall anything can be right there so drivers can see through the intersection. Look yours up before you buy something for this spot. 6. Roofline and porch: 2 of them, a dense run of tiny pink bulbs along a roofline, soft rather than hot, 0.2 ft tall. One continuous run along both street-facing rooflines. Skipping the side roofline is the number one corner-lot regret. 7. Side yard scene: a metal garden arch over a front path at night, dressed down both sides so it reads as a gap in something rather than as a frame, people walking through it, 7.3 ft tall. The build says pick one material and stop. Ignore that here: this theme is meant to be too much, so cover the frame completely. The limit is not taste, it is the twenty pound crown load, so use many light things rather than a few heavy ones. Foil hearts, tinsel garland, small shatterproof baubles and a light run wound the full length will bury a frame this size and weigh under five pounds. Put the light source off to one side rather than head on: glitter needs an angle to bounce from, and lit straight on it goes flat and looks like plastic. Shot at dusk with the sky still faintly blue, every lit decoration switched on and brighter than anything else in the frame, warm light spilling onto the lawn. Palette: #D2506B, #F4A8B8, #C9A227, #8A5A8A. Nothing floats; every piece sits on the ground at the stated distance. Scale reference: the front door is 80 inches tall.

The other two prompts

Each budget above has its own prompt for the finished yard, because each one is a different list of things. These two do not change between budgets: one for the empty yard so you have a before picture, and the negative prompt that stops every image model on earth from burying your lawn in snow you did not ask for.
