Decorated dining room dazzles at Osborne Homestead in Derby

Museum celebrates 'sparkling holiday'

It's difficult to pick a favorite room at the Osborne Homestead Museum in Derby. 
Members of 10 area garden clubs have beautifully decorated the rooms of the Colonial Revival-style home at 500 Hawthorne Ave. using the theme "A Sparkling Holiday." Each room features the color of a birthstone. 
The Roxbury/Bridgewater Garden Club adorned the dining room based on the green gemstone peridot, the birthstone for August. 

Tours will run through Dec. 17. 
They will be offered from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Thursdays through Sundays. 

On Fridays, Dec. 2, 9, and 16, the museum will present “Twilight Tours” to show off the shimmering glow of the decorations from 4-7 p.m.
