Let’s take a look at past holidays – Contemporary Resort

 

Last year, there were two posts about the Contemporary Resort’s decorations and gingerbread display…

However, one of my favorites remains the OLD gingerbread display from 2005 🙂 when we brought Dear Aunt to Disney World for the first time in years!

Let’s take a look at past holidays – Yacht Club

Nick was really busy last December! He did nearly all of our blog posts (I think I was too busy learning how to tweet :))…

His photo blog on the Yacht Club has some nice photos, why don’t you check them out?

Yacht Club Decor – Holidays 2013

Here’s a photo tour of the decor around the Yacht Club

large ships are a common element (of course)… I liked the mix of colors, not too showy but still celebratory

Yacht Club Display – Holidays 2013

The Yacht Club breaks with the whole gingerbread display concept seen at a lot of the other deluxe resorts (although, it’s worth noting that the Polynesian does very little to get all dolled up for Christmas)… I’m not sure if you’d call the Yacht Club’s display a train set or not, it’s a rather elaborate

It seems to me that we have photos (somewhere) of the Beach Club Chocolate Carousel going back quite a ways… (well before we started this blog!)…

Nick did an excellent job last year with his photos of the Beach Club.

Beach Club Ornaments – Holidays 2013

Another installment of my ornament obsession…

bow detail from one of the lobby trees, I continue to be fascinated by the sheer variety of ribbons (the crafter in me is mighty envious)

Beach Club Decor – Holidays 2013

The Beach Club Resort has quite a bit of public areas to explore and thus has quite a variety of Holiday decor items…

Let’s take a look at past holidays – Boardwalk Inn & Villas

There are a number of elements that are different this year…

There’s no Donald Duck Gingerbread display.

There’s no Stitch.

The cute gingerbread demonstration isn’t around either.

To see these things, you need to go read Nick’s post from 2012!

Boardwalk Inn & Villas Ornaments – Holidays 2013

even the ribbons at Walt Disney World are themed and particular to each location

I love Christmas ornaments and blown glass ornaments are a particular favorite. My mother was a fanatic and would add to her collection every year – blown glass wasn’t her favorite but she’d usually let me pick one out

Boardwalk Inn & Villas Decor – Holidays 2013

We’ve always been very fond of the swags and decor at the Boardwalk Inn. 2013 seems to be the year of the leaning trees…

The entrance is so welcoming

I really like the red, white, and blue theming on the entrance wreaths, trees, and swags

small trees in the
