. BEYOND TH E W REATH
Instead of hanging a
wreath at her back door,
Alexandra spray-painted a
dogwood branch with
white paint and hung it
from a brown ribbon. The
simple decoration lasts the
entire month of December.

. PACKAGE DEAL
Wrapped packages are a
big part of Alexandra’s
holiday decor. She plays off
her woodland theme with
gold, brown, cream, and
chartreuse papers and
tucks cedar sprigs into the
bows. Rather than putting
all the packages under the
tree, she gathers a few to
display near the kitchen
door, where she welcomes
friends and family. ii5)

“I like to take my son on walks, and we
gather greenery, pinecones, or branches
that I use to bring the
Spirit of the
Season
indoors.”
