CULLMAN, Ala. – The Share Club of Cullman Christmas Tour of Homes will take place on Sunday, Dec. 8, from 1-5 p.m. in the Cullman area.
This annual tour, a tradition since 1986, is a yearly favorite among those who enjoy taking in the latest in seasonal home décor and design.
Proceeds from the tour benefit various charitable organizations each year, and this season is no different. This year’s beneficiaries will be Alabama Alternative Communication Services, the Cullman County Bosom Buddies Foundation, First Source for Women and Hospice of Cullman.
There are five stops on this year’s tour, said Fundraising Chair T’aira Ugarkovich. “Each home is unique and brings its own spin to Christmas decorating. This event truly kicks off the Christmas season! We are grateful to the homeowners who are participating in the tour this year.”
Share Club is a service organization, and members are dedicated to strengthening the community and enhancing the lives of others through volunteer service.
Here’s a look at the five homes on the 2024 Share Club of Cullman Christmas Tour of Homes.

Home of Suzi Tillitski: Hanlin-Folsom House
The history contained within the walls of the residence, now known as the Hanlin-Folsom House, could fill the pages of numerous storybooks. The residence is the former home of Governor Big Jim Folsom; it’s where he lived during his two terms as governor. The home has been listed in the National Register of Historical Places by the Alabama Historical Commission. In January 2022, Suzi Tillitski purchased the property and now resides there with her two daughters, Elle and Lily. The Hanlin-Folsom House is described as a 1.5-story clapboard bungalow with a steep gabled roof, side fencing gables and a large three-sash dormer.
