Chelsea Woman Transforms Home Into Christmas Wonderland

A woman in Chelsea is continuing her decades-long tradition of transforming her home into a Christmas village.

It all started with a nativity set in 1979, and now this home looks like a true winter wonderland.

Over the last 42-years, Flora Andrews has transformed her house into what looks like basically the North Pole.

"We do beds...bathrooms...just everything," said Andrews.

Inside the home, snow villages, gingerbread houses, trains and so many Christmas trees.

She's even turned a shed in the backyard into a Christmas house.

Where warm lights twinkle, the figurines dance and skate and the only way to describe this Chelsea home -- is Christmas magic.

"This is a happy place here. That's how I look at it," said Andrews.

Flora said the collection gets bigger and bigger every year.

Where she gets it all?

"Anything in the papers, store ads, sales. Just anywhere I can buy it and people getting rid of it, I want it," said Andrews.

When she buys more for her collection her kids jokingly say "There's no way this is going to fit" but she always replies with the same response.

"When there's a will, there's a way," said Andrews.

Because every year her Christmas Village turns into an open house where family and friends come to visit and she loves seeing everyone enjoy the magic.

"You like for other people to enjoy it. You like to see them enjoy it. So, that gives you enjoyment," said Andrews.

She says this tradition, no matter how many years she does it, will always be special.

"It never gets old to me. Never," said Andrews.
