Department 56 Shops in Florida

One of my fellow Dept56 collectors was kind enough to let me know about 3 shops she's been to in Florida (west coast):

Roberts Christmas World, Clearwater.

Skip's Florist and Christmas House in Holiday, FL. She said this is one of her favorites.

There is also Victorian Village, Tampa.

I will add these to the Google Map of Recommended Department56 shops next week after I return from Chicago. I'm going on business but I'm definitely going to try and find a D56 shop out there as well. I guess there is an actual Department 56 brand retail store nearby.

But for Lorraine, president of the Tri-County Department 56 Collector’s Club, the displays are nothing out of the ordinary, considering many of the club members have similar displays in their own homes. “Everybody has different ways of displaying it,” Lorraine said of the Department 56 collectibles. “You find different things. When somebody comes up with a unique idea, you try and share it. It’s always nice to see somebody do something different.” ... click here to read the rest of the article
