The story behind The House That Christmas Made is as heartwarming as it is festive. In the early 1930s, at the height of the Great Depression, the newly constructed home was struggling to sell due to the economic downturn. Determined to attract buyers, the real estate agent, Thomas Stewart, had a brilliant idea: he would decorate the house with an extravagant Christmas display.
A Labor of Love and Festive Imagination
Stewart's plan proved to be a resounding success. With the help of his wife, Clara, and a team of dedicated volunteers, he transformed the home into a winter wonderland. They meticulously strung thousands of twinkling lights, hung festive garlands and ornaments, and placed life-sized reindeer and Santa Claus figures on the lawn.

The house's intricate exterior was complemented by an equally festive interior. Every room was adorned with Christmas trees, stockings hung by the fireplace, and an array of holiday-themed decorations. The main living room was the crowning jewel, featuring a towering Christmas tree that reached almost to the ceiling.
A Christmas Spectacle that Captivated a Nation
On December 15, 1933, The House That Christmas Made opened its doors to the public. The response was overwhelming. People from all over the country flocked to Abbeville to witness the spectacle. Cars lined up for miles, and eager visitors waited patiently for their turn to experience the festive enchantment.
