HOUSE Christmas Spirit Fills Delaney Family’s Crestline Home

ou can’t help catching the holiday spirit at Kalli and Andrew Delaney’s Crestline home. From the candy-filled kitchen island to Christmas trees that range from beautifully appointed to whimsically delightful, this house would make Santa himself feel right at home. This year, the Delaneys not only will enjoy their house during the holidays, they also will be sharing it with others. It’s one of the stops on this year’s Independent Presbyterian Church Holiday House Tour Dec. 8 and 9. Kalli and Andrew have lived in Birmingham since 2004 and moved to 10 Honeysuckle Lane last year after an extensive search. They wanted a house that would accommodate their growing family – and one that didn’t require a lot of work and updating. “With our third child on the way, we didn’t want to take on a remodel,” Kalli said. The couple’s quest came to an end when they saw the Crestline house.

Food and floral stylist Christina Brockman filled the kitchen island with gingerbread houses and Christmas treats. The sparkling tree in the stairwell, left, was decorated by Kalli Delaney’s aunt, designer Kris Parsons.
