This Rustic Christmas Village Is Going to Be 2018's Hottest Holiday Collectible
If those iconic Department 56 Christmas villages hold a special place in your heart but you've always wished they fit in with your farmhouse decor a little bit better, then you're going to love this new trend.
Christmas villages are getting a rustic, countrified makeover now that galvanized metal versions are popping up at retailers. These little lantern-like homes and buildings are sure to make your country heart sing.
The Concordville collection, available at Terrain, contains everything you need to assemble an adorable small town on your mantel, including a general store, saltbox house, windmill, and greenhouse starting at just $18.
And with a new zinc gazebo and corn crib, the 2018 additions to the collection are even more country chic than the last. There's even a lamp post, which is perfect for hanging a string of fairy lights in your teeny town.
You can choose to style them together in a vignette with some faux snow and bottle brush trees, or display them separately around your home. You could even place them on your Christmas tree around your other baubles or in lieu of typical ornaments.
Every year, you can expand your village with additions, or fill out your collection from other retailers like Etsy and Bed Bath & Beyond, which tend to sell at a lower price point.
The best part? Nothing about these cute homes screams Christmas, so you can display them year-round, swapping in different seasonal touches like spring flowers, summer greenery, or fall leaves.
