growth, unity, and everlasting life. Without

a single word, this beautiful decoration

speaks volumes. Whether traditionally fashioned from

winter foliage, ribbons, iced cones, and berries or totally

personalized with a favorite theme or design, this holiday

decoration welcomes friends, old and new, to your home. Four

local style makers show us imaginative and inspirational

Cynthia Kolls is known for her whimsical and colorful artwork that is

inspired by the joie de vivre so prominently on display in New Orleans.

She cut her wreath design from MDF fiberboard, then sanded and

primed it for a celebration of shotgun houses which she painted with

enthusiastic detail. A close-knit neighborhood of houses completes this

custom piece.

porch ceilings and tall slat

shutters, each home has

a different holiday style.

Even so, I imagine these

neighbors come together to

celebrate the season
