Villagescapes by Village Fantasies
Our Story


The Village Fantasies tale saw its beginnings more than forty years ago when founder and Artisan, Stephen Baird, was but a wee lad growing up in the sprawling village of Los Angeles on the west coast of America. Captivated by his family's decades old tradition of displaying a miniature Christmas village for the Christmas season, our young founder would in time take his passion for his family's tradition to a much grander stage by designing, creating, and sharing with the world his gift of bringing miniature and historically based Harvest and Christmas villages to enchanting and realistic life.

Heading Out to Sea
What distinguishes the custom Harvest and Christmas Villagescapes that Stephen creates from the more common family home display is his visual mastery of capturing and presenting historical details with breathtaking and deeply textured landscapes.  For years, Stephen's displays have mesmerized viewers by taking them back to a time that previously only artwork, theater, and movies could replicate.  Now, viewers of Stephen's displays can envision themselves docking an ocean weary schooner at a rustic New England seaport, or imagine they feel the chilling breeze of winter winds brushing through tree branches near a woodland waterwheel .

Villagescapes by Village Fantasies brings a unique and old world flair to what sometimes are common and too often replicated Christmas decorations and displays.  Experience the charm of yesteryear through an unforgettable miniature setting that takes you back to the adventures of a young country forging its identity in the world.
