Christmas Week Fun Part 2

 

Welcome to the Bingham Waggoner
Estate in Independence, Missouri.
My hometown.
In early December my friend Nancy
and I toured this beautiful home.
The home known for it's colorful
owners and the historical significance
of the area that the home was plotted
in in 1827. The home resides on 19.2
acres.

Come on up.

"I'll Be Home for Christmas" was the
theme for the home this Christmas
season. The beautiful tree above is in
the entryway.
Each area and room were decorated
by different volunteer groups.

As you enter the front door off  to your
left is the Ladies' Parlor. Pretty and
feminine.

Off to your right is the Men's study.
More of a masculine feel in here.

We are now in the Music room.
There was a variety of musical
pieces here. A Piano, Organ, a
Victrola and record player.

This is the beautiful record player.
When it was found, they opened
 the cabinet doors to find sets and
sets of 78 albums. Remember 78
records?

I didn't catch the name of this piece but
I know that the men in the back move
when the piece is turned on.

Here is the organ.

Moving into the hall now.
Beautiful side tables on each side.

Hope you enjoyed this part of the
tour. We will see more next time. 
There are more pretties on the way!
