Oh, but it's true. The house above, in Maine, is decorated in full-on holiday lights that are synchronized to create talking motions—lips moving, eyes blinking, the whole shebang. One eyewitness claims to have been so distracted at the mere sight that he veered his car off the road, warning, "let's just say one shouldn't be under the influence of anything while watching this."

Random fact: in London, 976,000 Christmas trees will be thrown away this year. In better news, the discarded holiday plants might now have a second go-at-it, thanks to an initiative that turns them into $621 stools.

With the exception of our final Gift Guide 2010 selection, which will go live tomorrow at noon, this is our last post until Monday. Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
However you slice it, Christmas revolves around the hearth. It's where family members warm up from the cold, where Christmas stories are told, and where a one mister Claus makes his point of entry. To commemorate this space in the home, we've rounded up 26 of the best, worst, and most in-need mantels we've ever seen. Have a look at the photogallery above, which kicks off with the festively festooned fireplace at the Vanderbilt family's Biltmore Estate in Asheville, N.C. (above). Ho, ho, ho!

The nation's capital is trying to show that it can decorate like the best of 'em, what with the newly dressed rooms on the eighth floor of the State Department building. As part of a collab with InStyle Magazine, designer David Stark was brought in to give historic spaces such as the (above, top to bottom) Thomas Jefferson State Reception Room, James Monroe Reception Room, and John Quincy Adams State Drawing Room a pretty, albeit pretty run-of-the-mill, seasonal makeover. Err, not to bring up a recent sore spot for the Capitol City but, uh, Stark so happens to be based in NYC.

The parade of cheesy, corny, tired, and downright bad Christmas movies that occupy the airwaves during the holiday season can be mentally exhausting. So in the hopes of saving you the trouble, we've culled these stills from some lesser-known films that feature some inspiringly tasteful—or at least ever-compelling and wildly extravagant—holiday decorations. The photogallery above depicts the gamut, but yes, of course we included the gold standard of holiday-decorating blunders, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. Who doesn't love an '80s Chevy Chase?
