Thirty years ago in Cornelia, Cindy Randolph picked up a miniature, porcelain stucco-style house to decorate her home during Christmas. The single piece was part of Snow Village, a collection of scenes depicting everything from Main Street America during the 1950s and ’60s to classic ornaments, cars and even American architecture, according to the Department 56 website (www.department56.com), maker of the pieces. Since then, Randolph has added pieces to her collection.
