It’s been 7 years since I shared my sister’s former neighbor, Marc’s so pretty Christmas home. He has since moved away from this home, but he has another home to decorate this year and I’m very happy for him. So today I’m going to share his gorgeously decorated Southern Traditional home with you again. You’ll notice that I featured him almost 10 years ago and if you want to go back and look at all 3 of those posts, it’s a feast for the eyes. Enjoy and get inspired for your own Christmas decor.
******************************************
You might remember that 2 years ago, I featured my sister’s neighbor, Marc’s beautiful Christmas house. I took so many pics, I did it in 3 parts, so you can find them here: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 if you want to take a look at those.
He’s a designer here in the area and has wonderful taste and decorating abilities and you all LOVED his house tour then. He’s made a few changes in his décor (as most who love Christmas decorating as much as Marc and my sister do) and so I went back to take a few updates this year. I know you’ll enjoy it all over again, so please be inspired by Marc’s Christmas home, all decked out for Christmas. I didn’t take nearly as many pics this time, but you can imagine that it was just as decorated this year as back then.
Now, mind you, Marc and my sister are two peas in a pod. They decorate most every room in the house with something Christmas, much more than I do at my house. I certainly don’t begrudge them in their holiday festivities and while I don’t envy them packing it up and putting it all back away, it is a feast for the eyes.
Enjoy! I’m not going to narrate every pic, but will just put them up for you to browse and enjoy. You can find Marc on Facebook for more information.
Wasn’t that so much fun? I knew you would love seeing Marc’s house again. He’s so talented and does a lot of client/design work here in town. His house is beautiful ALL the time, but at Christmas it really shines extra special.
If you missed Days 4 and 5 of the Christmas home tours I was part of this week, here are the links! You are sure to enjoy every single one of these blogger’s home all decorated for Christmas:
What color are Marc’s walls in the dining room?
The color is Sherwin Williams, Anew Gray, it is a great taupe gray, no blue in it, more brown tones!!! Enjoy!
Very beautiful! I love the Empire plastic light up Santa on the kitchen counter! I found 2 at antique stores and bought one for my sister and the other for myself! Christmas past memories! Merry Christmas Rhoda!
A little too busy for my taste but the wreath on the window, stunning!
LOL!!! Janet , not everyone like a lot of decorations, some people are minimalist, certainly not me!!! but glad you like the wreath. A few greens , a tree with a few pretty baubles and lights , a wreath on the door just ain’t my style but I see homes that are done that way and I appreciate and like them. Any little touch of Christmas makes me happy. Have a wonderful holiday!
You and the late Charles Faudree (and me, btw), when speaking of Christmas especially “Too much is never enough!” I was planning a more laid back Deck the Halls in 2015, but after seeing this post I think I’ve changed my mind. I guess I’ll have to dig out the storage and get it up after all (good thing I celebrate on 12th Night!)
Just found this tour thru Pinterest (better late than never) — a banquet for the eyes pinned to several of my Christmas Boards!! Surely you have elves to help you (or are you one of those folks who get by on practically NO sleep?). If I lived closer I’d volunteer MY help, just to get a sneak peak on how you store all of this – your own warehouse, perchance?
Thank you SO much for sharing — and Merry Christmas. (btw, I don’t think the rating stars are working – this is clearly a five star post!!!!!)
I would really enjoy seeing more of this home, without Christmas decor–it’s really lovely. I would also like to know more about the master bath, specifically the shower enclosure. Thanks to you & Marc for sharing!
Would love to share with you. Check out my page on .facebook called : Marc Jones, ,The Consignor’s designer”
When I saw you were featuring Marc’s Christmas home, I hurried in and grabbed a cup of coffee, turned on the little electric stove in the bedroom, got all comfy in my chair, because I want to savor every square inch of this gorgeous home!
Thank you, Rhoda!
Merry Christmas!
Awe… You are so kind, thank you, hope you enjoyed!!!
When you said there were Christmas decorations in every room you weren’t kidding! It is stunning and I wouldn’t want to be the one who had to pack it all away. I literally lost count of home many trees Marc has. Absolutely gorgeous!!
So many lovely things, and so much inspiration. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you once again Rhoda for the gorgeous photos and feature on my home this Christmas. Yes, it is a lot of work and it is a lot to pack away each year but it truly is a labor of love. I feel like it is seeing old friends that I get to see once a year. It may be over the top for some but not for me or my friends and family. The most special part of the holidays for me is creating Christmas wonderland to excite and thrill my friends and family. I love the entire process. Thanks again for this opportunity and I invite all your followers to check out my page in Facebook. It is called Marc Jones, “The Consignor’s Designer”
Beautiful, festive home, Marc. I don’t decorate nearly as much as I used to when the kids were small, and they don’t come here for the holidays. I’m like you though in the sense that with each ornament or decoration placed or hung, it brings back memories of Christmases gone by. Please don’t tell anyone that I have conversations with my snowmen 😉
Also see my comment/question to Rhoda in ref. to your eagle mirror.
Thank you for sharing Marc’s house –it was lovely and so festive. One of my favs was the pinecone comforter/duvet on the master bed. Another thematic favorite was the use of all the different Santas used especially the Santa cooks.
However, one of the items that stuck out the most was the beautiful golden eagle mirror over one of the fireplaces. We visited Rudyard Kipling’s estate in England a week ago today–it too was decorated for Christmas. Over the fireplace in the main entry room was a mirror almost identical to that one. The docent realized I was American (imagine that–with my TX drawl) and told me I would be interested in the mirror–it was a gift from an America (or American) to Kipling. She said you could tell the age of the mirror by the number of raised “dots” (whatever you’d call them) around the mirror. They represent the number of states in the US at the time. I counted 13 on Marc’s, so was wondering if his is an antique from the 13 colonies????? or maybe just an ornamental mirror with no significance to history. It is such a beauty for whichever reason. (sorry, such a long comment) Merry, merry Christmas.
I did purchase it at an antique store many years ago and it is heavy and old but I am intrigued by what you were told, I had never heard that. Now I will have to do some research on that mirror. Thanks for the sweet words!
Wow, that is all so beautiful and such a gorgeous home too. Thanks for the tour. Hugs, Marty
oh my goodness Just Gorgeous! He is very talented. I love the little details in the kitchen and bath too. Thank you for sharing I do hope you will add this post to my Thursday Favorite Things blog hop ( you can still link up today). Have a happy weekend
Simply breathtaking.
Wowzers! People would pay top $$ to see this home. Beautiful is not adequate commentary. My one question: does he have a separate warehouse to store all these treasures? LOL! Looking at my ‘Charlie Brown’ tree at home and hanging my head. 🙂
I have a couple of storage areas in the basement with shelves just to store all the decoration, most of the basement is finished but if I don’t quit adding each year I will have to re at a warehouse!!! LOL! Merry Christmas!
Wow! What a house! So many beautiful things and so much inspiration!

Holy moly and wowsers, lol! That’s a whole lot of sparkle. Beautifully done Marc. Yes, it would most definitely have to be a labor of love because that’s a whole lot of work involved. Thanx so much for sharing!
Thanks, glad to share and Rhoda is a superb photographer!!!! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Wow!! That is one beautiful home. I just thought that I put out a lot of décor but….WOW! He is definitely a fabulous decorator. Thanks for sharing this.
Oh. My. Goodness. It’s g e o r g e o u s!
I’m really going to study these photos again and again to learn how the pros do it.
This makes me want to run to the store to beef up my decor. BUT I don’t have room to store it all. Marc, where do you store all this stuff during the rest of the year?
Wow, that was spectacular! Thanks for taking us on the Christmas tour. Diane
I have to say, this makes me feel very inept. I don’t even have my one tree up yet! Beautiful home and style.
Marc’s home is stunning! I love very inch! It’s magical and looks like a Christmas Wonderland! All of this trees are stunning! The attention to detail is fabulous; nothing is left out! Thank you for sharing Marc’s gorgeous home, Rhoda.
