The most wonderful time of the year is actually most of the year at Frankie “Christmas” Bianco’s home, because it stays decorated for it for eight full months.
Does anyone adore Christmas more than this Manhattanite who decks the halls in a very grand way?
The most wonderful time of the year is actually most of the year at Frankie “Christmas” Bianco’s downtown home, because it stays decorated for the holiday for eight straight months. The Lower East Side resident has no fewer than 13,751 lights, which he spends more than 200 hours putting up immediately after Labor Day and keeps displayed until April, according to a viral apartment tour of his one-bedroom by popular Instagram documentarian— a tour whose video fetched some 183,000 likes over the past two weeks.
The tradition of going all out spreading Christmas cheer — no matter the time of year — began when he was 18 and has only gotten more over-the-top over the past 15 years. “My love for Christmas started with my mother many years ago when she couldn’t decorate our home due to an illness so I stepped up and did it for her,” Bianco told The Post of his Yuletide obsession’s origin. After that first year, he only went bigger and bigger with the ornamentation. “For the record my mom is still with us and going strong,” he added.
