The third house in Penarth's Christmas Advent Window Trail has been unveiled.
The third house is on Queen's Road, and the window was designed by the Martin family.
A total of 24 homes across Penarth will reveal a Christmas-themed window every day from the 1 December creating a trail for all to enjoy until 5 January 2020.
The first house is located on Stanwell Road and featured a Christmas tree made up of snowflakes and lights. It was designed by Sara Etheridge and family. The second is at Queen's Road, designed by Becca and family.
Michael Yorke is going live in the Facebook group to reveal each window.
On the day of the first unveiling the group had 500 members. Now the group has almost 800.
Michael helped co-ordinate the trail to provide families in Penarth with some festive fun that can be enjoying within the Coronavirus restrictions.
The idea for the trail came when Michael and his wife Jemma decided they wanted to decorate their own house to lift people's moods.
"Through the Covid lockdown, kids and parents are both getting a bit irritated indoors," said Michael.
"So, we thought we want to decorate our house for Christmas in a special way.
"'Why not get other people in involved?' we asked, so we thought of an Advent-themed trail.
"It's to cheer everybody up really. It allows families to walk around Penarth safely, in their own time and see the windows.
"The livestream allows people to see it from home, to show the school children who are isolating for example," he said.
