This
story begins as every other story does- with the extreme fascination
for Christmas.
Having
advent calendars we grew up with as children, the idea of a advent
house quickly became a long, sought after item we dreamed about.
Around
our home, Christmas decorating is a number one holiday priority,
with attempts each year to become more grand. As we envisioned what
will be the new "big" piece added to our ever growing
display, childhood memories stirred and the thought of the Christmas
Advent House took center stage.
Unfortunately, at the time, this item was as hard to find as the
real Santa Claus. So with dreams of owning our very own advent house,
the project of building our own began. It's creation seemed to be
a wonderful, personal adventure and it would be able to be passed
down through our family for generations.
Upon
our version's completion, family and friend's reactions to the advent
house were so positive and heartwarming.
After posting pictures of the completed version on the Internet,
it connected us with others who share a love for Christmas. It became
clear that we were not the only people obsessed with the idea of
having an Advent House. There were more. Many more. As requests
to build one for other families grew, we decided the time was right.
Which
brings us to today. We are honored to bring this version of the
Advent House to you- from our family to yours.
