This is probably my favorite blog post every year. I love doing research, but I'm a sucker for houses decorated for the winter holidays. This year, I'm including some Sears houses, though many are not. So, without further ado, here we go!

Merry Christmas!
Happy Winter
Here's to a 
Happy and Healthy 
New Year!

  1. I love visiting. Don't comment because I have nothing intelligent to offer. But, what the heck. This is wonderful. Amazing to see so many pictured in one place. Hard to believe that these are actually Sears houses. Never could have imagined!

    1. I love when you do comment, Mitchell!
      Only a few of these are actually Sears houses, in this post -- six are, I think. It's cool how different the lights and decorations are in Málaga, than in a 1920s era neighborhood in St. Louis County!

  5. Thank you for this. I love old homes, such great architecture and woodwork. Especially the craftsman style (I think) bungalow. Just beautiful, every one. Merry Christmas!
