Every year, Verna Glass tells herself that she is going to take it easy and only have one small Christmas tree. But once the spirit of the season finds its way into her Hahira household, she can't resist the urge to go all-out just one more time. Decorating in the Glass house starts in mid-November and the trees alone take at least a month for her to complete. I say that every year, but I can't resist when it comes to decorating.
People come in and are in such awe of the trees.
Glass has been collecting her unusual ornaments for 20 years. She started out by making them at first, has a few that her husband made for her, and also many that she has collected from Valdosta and surrounding areas. Each ornament is unique and special to her, but she especially adores the Victorian ones that she has found. Visitors to see the trees have been numerous. Even with her vow to lighten her holiday traditions, Glass couldn't resist starting a new one this year after a recent holiday dinner at Hahira Methodist Church.
