Do you need any help getting in the mood for the upcoming Christmas holidays? Do you want to see where Christmas has “exploded” and holiday cheer is spewed everywhere? Well I have a post for you 😉
John and I were recently in Las Vegas for his poker tournament and we stopped one day at the Bellagio Hotel’s Conservatory and Gardens where they had outdone themselves on Christmas decorations.
Here we are, overwhelmed with holiday cheer 😉
I don’t mean to make fun of it, the display was actually very lovely and the Bellagio’s team did a spectacular job with the design and decorations.
I got a kick out of the miniature train set circling one of the Christmas trees on display. It reminded of the electric train set we got from my grandfather that always chugged around our Christmas tree when I was a kid.
After touring the gardens we popped into the over the top Christmas Shop at the Bellagio where many items cost a mortgage payment.
But they were beautiful to look at and we had fun browsing the very crowded shop.

Wow! just wow. It would take days to really see it all. Hope you came home with your mortgage payment.

Ha! Yes we only pretend shopped in that high priced but lovely shop. It was so busy and I could have spent an hour looking around. I think we did spend nearly an hour in the conservatory so I got to really enjoy it 🙂

All that’s needed is a little snow! Wow, I bet it was fun to explore with so much to see.

When snow becomes a thing in Las Vegas proper I will really worry about the climate – ha! Yes I agree and it was very fun to see 🙂

Love this! We have found conservatory’s have some fantastic holiday shows/decor lately. I also had to chuckle at the “mortgage payment” comment mostly because it is SO true.

I found a Christmas decoration piece for over $900! I would have to display it year round at the price – ha!
Thanks for stopping by 🙂

Thank you for sharing. When we were in Vegas recently, our favorite part of the strip was the Bellagio Display. And who doesn’t love over the top Christmas displays, right? Thanks for your comment on my blog about my Christmas display as well. And my medical procedure went well. I get to be very lazy over the Thanksgiving Holiday while I heal. I have crochet projects and new books lined up while my husband and daughter get to do all the cooking and dishes!

Have a relaxing recovery and heal well 🙂

I always enjoy the amazing Bellagio displays. We were there two seasons ago, and I too blogged about it. It is over the top but clever. It looks like you had fun.
