Christmas at Longwood Gardens – The Music Room and Ballroom

By Pattyhankins @PattyHankins

Another day – another set of wonderful Christmas decorations from Longwood Gardens. Today’s photos were taken in the Music Room and the Ballroom. Between the two rooms – there were five beautiful trees (I only have photos of 4 of them) plus lots of other wonderful decorations.

In the Music Room – the main tree

The Fireplace – I love the way they created the look of a burning fire with clear ornaments and orange light

The Ballroom is always a challenge to photograph in. They keep the lights very low unless there is someone playing the organ. The morning I was there – the room was practically dark except for the lights on the tree.

I just wonder how many strings of Christmas lights they used in these two rooms?
