Holiday inspiration starts here! Three beautiful homes, in Burlington, Hamilton and Mount Hope, have been decorated by a talented team of design professionals and retailers to showcase absolutely gorgeous holiday décor and entertainment ideas. Presented by the Junior League of Hamilton-Burlington, the Holiday House Tour supports the organization’s many charitable causes. It’s truly a win-win for you – an excellent opportunity to see stunning holiday creations in spectacular home settings and to support positive change right here in our own communities.
Speaking of design professionals. Stoney Creek Furniture is decorating two rooms in one of the featured homes. Our design experts have really gone all out with unique ideas that frankly, will make you ‘ooh and ahh’. And here’s a sneak peek – you have to attend for the full effect.

About the Junior League. Founded in New York in 1901 by Mary Harriman, the Junior League was originally comprised of 80 young socially advantaged women dedicated to improving health, nutrition and literacy among immigrant families. The organization grew quickly, today comprised of 293 Junior Leagues in four countries, with over 155,000 members. In 1934, the Junior League of Hamilton (now Hamilton-Burlington) was formed. For the past 80 years, the group has been dedicated to creating positive change in the community.
