Beautiful. I'd wanna live in there :p
I'm glad you like it, and I'm pleased to have bought a christmas tingle to you via the miracle of the internet. Feel free to spread the link across the community of christmas forums, I'm sure that some of you must be on more than one!
Don't you have bigger stores and displays in the USA?! If so could you post a link to them?
I'm sure we must but I don't know of any that do up the whole store so elaborately and beautifully with all Christmas related things or that have such well done videos such as the ones that your store has. Not saying they don't exist; just that I am not aware of any.Quote:

It had about four buildings, I think. A friend took me there several years ago and it was nice, but not great, although I did buy a few ornaments there. The reason it was not great is that, unbeknownst to me, it had been in decline for some time, due to financial woes and has since gone out of business. I wish there was some nice Christmas place still our area.Quote:

unfortunately, I think this particular place went out of business due to the owner hiring a manager or something that did a lousy job and ran the place into the ground, according to the news stories at the time, in addition to the economic downturn. I regret that I did not hear they were going out of business until too late; I could have picked up a gorgeous artificial tree for a song. but, no matter; I have a very lovely tree anywayQuote:
