Mark Hilan arranges a creche on a mantle at a home that will be part of the Candy Cane Tour of Homes from noon to 6 p.m. on Sunday.

He and his wife, Amy Eddings, live at 508 N. Main St. in one of the town's largest (3 floors and a full basement) and oldest homes. Many on the tour will be as curious to see the inside of the home as much as the holiday decorations.

Since living there the past year, Mark and Amy have spent considerable effort refurbishing the inside and outside of the stately home known for its late Victorian Queen Anne architecture.
