Through a combination of imagination and the season’s joy, Jon Cryer turns his house into a breathtaking Christmas town with an Americana theme.
- Stunning 3D-printed seasonal decorations.
- The canine may be rather merry!
Famed Two and a Half Men actor Jon Cryer’s elaborate Christmas village decorations are his true love, turning his house into a spectacular winter paradise.
Cryer playfully downplayed his expensive constructions, saying, “I build a stupid Christmas village” at the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles 2024 Gala.
Paris, London, and Los Angeles are just a few places where Cryer has modeled themed communities after. Nevertheless, he’s going for a more traditional style this year. “I’m channeling my inner Americana,” he declared.
These towns aren’t just arrangements. He can’t even see the fireplace through them; they’ve taken up his whole living room.
A functional ski lift, a plethora of lights, and hundreds of miniature homes are just a few of the elements that Cryer incorporates into his elaborate landscape.
3D printing has given him a creative outlet for his pastime, and he has printed famous structures such as the Cinerama Dome, Walt Disney Concert Hall, and Nakatomi Plaza—the latter of which include helicopter action for a Die Hard theme.
While Cryer and Lisa Joyner do not currently have any little children in the house, they do have a pair of rescue dogs.
Interestingly, it seems that the puppies are aware that the settlements are off-limits. After all, any slip-up might have catastrophic consequences, but “they’ve been very respectful,” Cryer said.
As a tribute to Cryer’s commitment to elevating his devotion to Christmas to the level of an art form, this year’s Americana exhibit will showcase vintage holiday charm.
He values the thrill of doing something extraordinary more than he values ostentatious displays of wealth. His annual ritual does motivate us all to add a touch of glitz to the holidays.
