Holiday Decor Inspiration, Fabulous Homes, and Doing Community Good

One of the things I always look forward to is the Vineville Tour of Homes each holiday season. I know I can get inspiration for how to decorate my home, as well as seeing my friends and enjoying some social time.

 

But this year’s tour of homes will be special. My kids school, Vineville Academy, will be involved. And there will be the chance to see a home recently donated by the city to help with affordable housing. From their website:

This year’s tour of homes will showcase bungalows and cottages in the historic Vineville neighborhood.

With the purchase of a homes tour ticket, a tour of The Big House and Allman Brothers Band Museum is included.

The Vineville Neighborhood Association is also working with Strong Tower Fellowship, and we are going to have a recently renovated city donated home on the tour. These renovated homes, which are owned by Strong Tower Fellowship, are rented to help the community with affordable housing. With donations from the surrounding community, these houses that have been an eyesore for decades are being renovated for a great cause. Also on the tour is the community garden located next to these homes.

During the tour of homes, we will have several artists and designers giving tips and sharing their expertise of holiday decorating and entertaining. These demonstrations are something new for this year’s tour.

The New Town Trolley will circle the neighborhood to make sure guest get from house to house with ease.

Don’t miss Saturday night’s reception at The Big House, which includes live entertainment and appetizers.

 

But this is just a preview! I’m going to have information from several of the participants leading up to it.

 

Another fun event? From their Facebook page: ” Robinson Home chef demonstration and tips on holiday entertaining during this year’s Christmas Tour of Homes! Come enjoy talking to one of Robinson Home’s teaching chefs and learn more about classes offered at Robinson Home this holiday season. Demonstration Location & Time: 2321 Vineville Ave., The Big House Museum, Saturday, 1:00pm – 3:00pm.”

 

Also from their Facebook page: ” The posted photo is a BEFORE photo of the new community garden. Take the Historic Vineville Christmas Tour of Homes and see the AFTER! The Vineville Neighborhood Association along with Strong Tower Fellowship invites you to come and see community activism at it’s best; small changes help make a big difference.”
