A Very Purple Christmas





This house is a few blocks away from us. It used to be a law office, now it is a Bed & Breakfast. Here it is in all it's Christmas finery. It really is noticed. Yes or No? I kind of like it. It looks a bit old fashioned. Though there is a lot, I think it is done quite tastefully. For a Purple house, that is.

 “Belshazzar did what he had promised. He robed Daniel in purple, draped the great gold chain around his neck, and promoted him to third-in-charge in the kingdom.”

Hi Ginny, the decoration is beautiful...we don't have this type of decoration here.

NO, not my taste.

Tamago said...

Wow, law office turned into such a pretty Bed & Breakfast! Love the white & purple colors, and the decoration is gorgeous. It must looks beautiful when lights are on in the night, too!

I wouldn't go for this, but it is colorful.

It's a little garish for my taste but, I'm sure, fun to come upon. There's a house about a block down the street from me that has a huge display of color that is professionally installed each year. The first few years, I thought it was awful. Now I like it. This is the same neighbor that spent over two million, yes, two million on their back yard. Waterfalls, streams, landscaping.

Best,
Bonnie

Correction: It was one million, not two. I just e-mailed you the link to see it.

Best,
Bonnie

It's very distinctive and fun, for sure! Someone has a great imagination.

A place heavy on personality! It is fun.
No one died over the letters - my mom is cleaning out stuff at my grandmother's - she is thinking of moving to an apartment or someplace with no outside maintenance.

The house itself I love but the color just doesn't work for me

SquirrelQueen said...

I like it! The house looks like a happy place which this world could use more of these days. I would love to see what they did with the inside decorations.

Shug said...

Well.....this is quite different. full of color indeed... I'm guessing that it's not a hard place to find...Very unique..

It looks lovely Ginny, and it really works. I'd like to see the inside.
