Were does the time go - Christmas will be here before you know it. And, if you are looking for some luminous holiday ornaments, I know just where to go...... to the Greenbrier's "Christmas Depot Shop" in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia.
The Christmas shop opened at the Greenbrier in 1996 in a former historic train depot dating to 1931. The best thing about the Christmas Depot Shop besides the Christmas ornaments, collectible Santas, nutcrackers, water globes and holiday decorations, is that it is opened year-round. In each of the six rooms of the shop you will find beautiful decorated Christmas trees.
The shop, located directly across from the entrance of the Greenbrier Resort is recognized by the candy cane-striped posts and red and green Christmas-themed exterior. Not only does the Christmas Depot shine in the night with fairy-tale beauty during the holiday, it shines year round.
It still serves as a depot of sorts as the Amtrak Cardinal train continues to run by the Greenbrier three days a week. The first thing you will see when de-boarding the train is, of course, the Christmas Shop.
Stop by the Christmas Depot Shop and browse you may find some great holiday ornaments. Located at 315 West Main Street. White Sulphur Springs, WV.

I have already seen Christmas stuff out in the stores. It seems as if they are really rushing the season...

I always enjoy Localism posts because they give me a glance ot different parts of the country and it's a great way to learn more about the blogger! I know how Mike feels though, our son's birthday is November 19th and he still gets irritated when he sees Christmas ads before his birthday or Thanksgiving! Have a good week!
Sounds like a very unique Christmas shop to visit in your area. I've never got my shopping done early, but for those that do it's a great reminder.
Hey, Rebecca. I am always amazed when I visit one of those stores. They are way to cool. Thanks, Jim
Hi Rebecca - this is a delightful hyper local post. Christmas if my favorite time of year and I love decorating - so these unigue Christmas shops always intrigue me. My only issue is - good grief the big box stores already have Christmas stuff out. Ugg!!
Rebecca,
What a wonderful little shop! Great history, and great Localism. I can appreciate a store like this because I buy a Christmas ornament everywhere I travel, so my tree has flair from all over the world. Thanks for sharing!
Your friend in the Cosmic Cow Pie.
Michael and Russell. yeah the stores seem to start putting the Christmas stuff out earlier and earlier each year. Who knows, they may start leaving it out all year round like the Christmas Depot Shop.
