Christmas Open House - Part One.



Bienvenue!


Welcome to the first of my Christmas Open House posts.



As you enter through the double front doors 
Colonial Williamsburg
Byers Choice Carolers
 are waiting to welcome you
with a ballad or two, a cup of grog and a choice of seasonal fare.


This year the mantlepiece in the library has a new look,
but still traditional!












Meanwhile, in the dining room,
Bavarian Santa presides this year over Spode "Christmas Tree" china tea things.
He has his eye on those mincepies, I can tell.




The other Santas can only watch from on top of the mantlepiece.






In the window,
The Byers Choice Salvation Army Brass Band and Choir
sing Christmas Carols to entice
Shopping Carolers.



However, the Shopping Carolers seem to have been waylaid
decorating their own tree.


Maybe they think they're in the Rockwell painting of
Stockbridge, Massachusetts?



I hope you enjoyed seeing some of  my favourite Christmas vignettes
and will stop by again to see more displays soon.
