Christmas in 19th Century Virginia

December 24, 2021

Every holiday season, Brian Branton brightens our Instagram accounts with a transformation of his circa 1808 Federal row house in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia into Christmas wonderland reminiscent of a bygone era. A lobbyist in Washington, D.C., Brian enjoys paying homage to home’s roots by decorating with natural elements such as evergreen clippings from his backyard and historically inspired fruit wreaths. Having grown up in a historic home in North Carolina, Brian also enjoys incorporating traditional Southern elements such as magnolia leaves and pineapples.

The Christmas dream home has been featured in Southern Living, Country Living, The Cottage Journal and more. Let’s take a peek inside with pictures from Brian’s Instagram from this Christmas and Christmases past…

Thank you, Brian, for sharing your Christmas joy! Please follow @brianbranton on Instagram for ongoing inspiration. Merry Christmas!
