Christmas at Longwood Gardens 2019 – In the Organ Room

Christmas at Longwood Gardens 2019 – In the Organ Room

It’s my favorite time of the year – Christmas at Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania! Every year I’m amazed and in awe of the incredible job the staff does decorating the Conservatory, the DuPont house and the grounds. I usually make several visits to Longwood during the Christmas season, just so I can capture some of the magic to share.

Here are some of my photos taken in the Organ Room. The decorations in this room always have an elegant feel to them

On my second trip to Longwood this season I spent time capturing some of the wonderful details that make Christmas at Longwood Gardens so special. The theme in the Music Room this year is a Candy Store – so the presents in the room have wonderful candy themes.

I’ll be sharing more photos soon. My plan is to share a post as soon as I have several photos on a theme. So depending on what I photograph on each trip will determine how often posts go up.

Christmas at the DuPont House – Longwood Gardens – 2018

Christmas at the DuPont House – Longwood Gardens – 2018

Every December I make several trips up to Longwood Gardens to photograph their annual Longwood Christmas display. It’s always spectacular. I thought I’d share some of my photos from Christmas at the DuPont house. The decorations at the DuPont house tend to me be a little more understated and a bit more elegant than some of the ones in the Conservatory. 

The tree in the courtyard at the DuPont house reminded me of an old-fashioned tree with glass ornaments handed down through the generations and lots (and lots) of tinsel.

The family stored suitcases & trunks for travel under the stairs in the main hallway and every year they too are decorated for the holidays.

Throughout the house, there are little decorated scenes on mantle pieces, shelves and even the piano.

I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing my photos from the 2018 Christmas at Longwood Gardens display. It was – as always – simply amazing. I can’t wait to see what the Longwood staff come up with next year for the 2019 Longwood Christmas display.
