BERGDORF GOODMAN WISHES OUR CITY A HAPPY 300 YEARS
L ast summer, when New York City's landmark department store, Bergdorf Goodman, unveiled their Fifth Avenue windows, it was New Orleans that took center stage. In partnership with the New Orleans Tourism Marketing Corporation, the storied retailer dedicated all five of their premier avenue windows to the celebration of our city's 300th birthday. This was the very first time for such a partnership, but it makes perfect sense . . . one great American city honoring the greatest city in the world, and I'll leave it for you to decide which is which. Under the direction of David Hoey, Bergdorf's Senior Director of Visual Presentation, splendid installations captured the exuberance and optimism of the Big Easy through detailed depictions of our music, culture, and
iconic images. Thousands of beads, artistic papier-mâché sculptures, and well-researched insider jokes created multi-layered works of art that featured world-renowned fashion houses alongside the many traditions we New Orleanians hold dear. Resplendent with alligators, carnival masks, and jazz instruments, you can almost hear the drumbeats of Mardi Gras parades. I would be hard-pressed to choose a favorite window, but for me it is the lowly crawfish elevated in a "scientific" way and the simplicity of the made-to-scale shotgun house. My grandmother had a rescued Catahoula hound; we still sit on her porch with the neighbors; and after all, isn't this what it all "boils" down to in the city that care forgot? Thank you Bergdorf Goodman for getting it all so right.

HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS Heidi Friedler by katy danos | interior design by Heidi Friedler | photos by Joshua Brasted
W hen interior designer, Heidi Friedler, decorates the home she shares with her husband Tripp for the holidays, her exuberant design scheme reflects her signature style – bright color palettes, layers of texture and pattern, and a sophisticated collected vibe. It's magical, inviting, and just the right amount of over the top; in other words, it truly celebrates the season.
"I grew up outside of Chicago, so it was always cold and usually snowy with a fire burning inside every night," Heidi explains. "My mom went all out – lots of presents, lots of wrapping, baking cookies, decorating cookies, a really tall fresh tree, and a party or two. And that's what I remember most about the holidays."
ADORE • HOLIDAY 2018 17
Taking color inspiration fromeach light-filled room in this spacious Tudor home, the decor is loaded with whimsy, sentimental treasures, and new finds. "My Christmas decorations continue to evolve and everything is stored in plastic bins by color. Every year, I am hoping to find something new and different that will get me excited to pull out all the stuff and put up the trees," Heidi says. It's evident how much joy she finds in the creative process. With endless sources and expert tips garnered from a lifetime of collecting, her enthusiasm is infectious. For the living and family rooms, seven-foot faux trees sit on tabletops for a dramatic effect. "I can't remember why I decided to try fake trees one year, but I am now a convert," chuckles Heidi. "No, they don't have that nice pine smell, but that is the only downside for me." As she noted, it is hard to find fresh eleven-foot skinny trees with really open branches that will also last the entire season. With three grown children home at Thanksgiving to help, the trees go up that Friday. Color cues for one tree come from the art above a mantle, and for another,
the inspiration comes from a vibrant floral fabric. One tree is what Heidi calls "more decorator-y" – based around one hue with ornaments in varying shape, size, and texture creating visual interest. "I've done this more spare, controlled style for about three years now and I love it," says Heidi. The other is a riot of corals, pinks, yellow, oranges, and a tiny bit of pale blue for what she calls the "more is more, Cindy Lou Who, sugarplum-y, loaded look" reminiscent of the gorgeous, unrestrained, and very personal trees of her childhood memories. Design advice includes using more lights than you think you need with different size bulbs and colors as you wrap deep into the trunk for that sparkling, dazzling effect. "I don't worry too much about the wires showing because all of the decorations will hide them," she explains. Next comes lots of different glass and glittered garland, swagged and overlapping, and oversized balls placed throughout the tree including up high and at the very tips of branches. Layering in your own mix of favorite ornaments in assorted shapes and sizes is what brings personality

to your tree. "I find Christmas decorations everywhere," says Heidi. "The thrill is in the hunt. My favorite haunts include Bergdorf Goodman, Hazelnut, Pied Nu, Target, and even the corner drugstore!" Enchanting little tinsel and bottlebrush tabletop trees, which Heidi has collected for about twenty years, show up on occasional tables throughout the house. These sweet nostalgic confections are especially charming on the 1940s bar cart she found in her hometown years ago. Arranged with vintage Venetian goblets, a glossy lacquered tray, and Tripp's grandmother's Baccarat ice bucket, it is a glamorous rendition of Santa's workshop. Heidi truly loves the art of gift wrapping and this year her daughter Kate, who has joined the design firm, is on hand to help. "I'm learning from the best," says Kate and she's not kidding.
S entimental treasures are the ornaments given to me by my godmother every year, those handed down from my mother in law, and those that were a wedding gift from a family friend. -Heidi Friedler

"My dining room becomes the wrapping room between Thanksgiving and Christmas," Heidi explains. "I wait 'til most of my shopping is done and, once the 50s Christmas music is playing in the background, I start the process by doing all the paper first, no ribbons or tags." She buys paper from high and low sources, looking for matte solids, beautiful florals, birchbark, and old-fashioned Santa paper. "Once that is out of the way, I clear away the long tubes of paper and the scraps and take my time deciding on ribbons. I'll shift and swap ribbons and tags so I end up with a pile of gifts that look nice together but aren't all
the same." She buys grosgrain and velvet ribbon in bulk – varying widths in greens, pinky-reds, and turquoise for Hanukkah gifts – and saves tinsel-y ribbon from gifts they receive. "Lately, I've started wrapping tops and bottoms of sturdy boxes so they can be opened without tearing the paper and can be kept as part of the gift," she explains. "I try to take my time, not be rushed – reminding myself that I only get to do this once a year. Kate and I aren't thinking of it as a task that has to be checked off but as a creative opportunity. I love a nicely wrapped gift and the effort that goes into it. I guess I just assume that others will too."

Makin' Cookies Local Tastemakers Share Their Holiday Treats by CATHERINE CAMPBELL | photos by leslie gamboni T he holidays and cookies go hand and hand. Few things have the kind of connection to childhood memories like Christmas cookies do. Family as a great way to de-stress during the hectic season and some like the tradition of gathering for this festive activity. Cookies, made from the heart, are a perfect gift – and don't forget to leave out a few for Santa. recipes, passed down through the generations, immediately conjure up sentimental joy. Some of us enjoy baking alone
suzi e bloch | interior decorator
M y happiest childhood memories are in the kitchen with my sisters making desserts, especially during the holidays when the halls were decked. Taking time to sit around the kitchen table decorating cookies for and with my nearest and dearest is a joy in my world. I like to use the ginger cookie for the flavor and it also stands up to some manhandling. The rustic quality lends itself to my less than perfect decoration techniques and children's little hands.

Add the meringue powder to bowl with water and lightly whisk. Add 1/2 the sugar, continue stirring.
Add remaining sugar and stir until stiff with peaks. Keep air-tight while working to keep from crusting.
To decorate, thin icing with a couple of drops of water until it's pourable but not too thin (about like pancake batter). Divide into small cups to mix colors. Put remaining white base color in squeeze decorator bottle and apply to top. If you don't have the bottle you can pour it over the cookie. Working quickly so icing doesn't crust, put 2 -3 drops of colored icing on top of the white. Repeat with second color then drag a toothpick through to create a pattern. It's art, so there are no rules. Enjoy creativity.

I enjoy the Holidays as an excuse to dress up or decorate all my favorite things, so why not a favorite recipe? A butter cookie, in its simplicity, is easily adapted to add- ins and different techniques. You can throw in some nuts, chocolate chips, or dried fruit. In one variation I added mini chocolate chips and diced dried cherries – in another chopped pistachios. I love to inspect gourmet food shops when I travel; I found the gold-plated pistachios in London.

1 LARGE EGG YOLK 1/4 CUP HONEY 1 TEASPOON VANILLA EXTRACT GOLD SANDING SUGAR
Whisk flour and salt in a medium bowl to combine. Place sugar and butter in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat on medium speed until mixture is smooth. Add egg yolk, honey, and vanilla; beat to combine. Reduce speed to low; add dry ingredients in 2 additions, mixing well after each addition. On a work surface, pat dough into a 9"-long log. Wrap the log in parchment paper and tightly in plastic. Chill until firm. Preheat oven to 350°F. Scatter half of sanding sugar over a small portion of work surface. Roll dough log in sugar, applying a bit of pressure until evenly coated. Slice dough into 3/8"-thick rounds. Place cookies on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing about 2" apart, and chill. Scatter some sanding sugar on surface. Bake cookies, rotating baking sheets top to bottom and back to front halfway through, until cookies are golden around the edges but still pale in the center, 13-18 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on baking sheets, then transfer to wire racks and let cool completely.

T his recipe, handed down by my Italian grandparents, brings back nostalgic memories for me because this is one of the cookies my grandmother always made at Christmas. The whole house smells wonderful with hints of licorice and cinnamon when wine cookies are baking. They're crisp, not too sweet, and made with simple ingredients . . . delicious dipped in coffee or tea.

The Art of Gifting Wrap THAT'S A
W hile the phrase "it's what's on the inside that counts" rings true, when it comes to presents I have always believed that beautiful wrap and presentation is just as important as the gift itself. The bag 'n' bow was not an option in our home when I was growing up. Maybe it's because I have such fond memories of family shopping on Canal Street at D.H. Holmes and Maison Blanche. It was a special treat to choose a fancy "custom wrap" design that was on display in the gift wrap section. Even as a child I thought "I can do that" . . . and honestly, anyone can. All you need is a little imagination and a hot glue gun.

Celebrate New Orleans this year with our limited edition
New Orleans Tricentennial
Ornament collection.
Over the years, I've collected various ribbons, papers, and adornments – any kind of doo-dad found on sale at craft shops or virtually anywhere – such as feathers, floral sprays, and pine cones. The possibilities are endless. The key is keeping your eyes and mind open to different things of beauty. Two musts are good paper and good ribbon and that doesn't mean it has to be expensive. Keep your feelers out for quality ribbon sales at local fabric and trimming shops. My favorites are grosgrain and double-faced satin. The same concept applies to paper, too. Although fancy holiday paper can be exquisite, simple brown kraft paper when paired with a fabulous ribbon and a single brass button or rogue costume earring in the center of a four-loop bow can make a serious statement!
Produced exclusively for us, each ornament is hand stitched using a combination of fabrics, beadwork and metal threadwork, a technique that can be traced back 2,000 years.

I love to build suites of packages with coordinating paper. And I've been known to use newsprint or the comics. -bryan batt
One of the best inventions of the latter part of the 20th century was the hot glue gun. This magic wand can help your creations take flight and even defy gravity. The joy of creative wrapping is that there are really no rules – use your imagination, take your time, and have fun. The happy faces of your friends and family when they receive a gorgeously-wrapped gift is just as rewarding as the ones for the contents of the package.

L et's face it, big presents under the tree may be the main attraction, but it's the stuffed stockings that make Christmas morning memorable. Smaller in size and often dollars, stocking stuffers are always big on thought. Clever trinkets and special whatnots tell family members exactly how well you know them. Bring on the laughs and the wonder; everything about stocking stuffers is fun.

A NEW ORLEANS CHRISTMAS
T he halls are decked at Ron Carrier and Jeff Burrell's Uptown home, and their Southern- inspired Christmas decor greets you at the door. "I'm a traditionalist at heart," Ron explains. "So I use the classic colors of the season – red, green, gold, and silver – mixed with elements that reflect my New Orleans roots." Fresh garland from Mitch's and poinsettias from The
Plant Gallery are festooned with large-scale bows and a charming holiday streetcar by Melissa Henry of Show Me The Door. For trees, Ron uses a fresh Frasier fir in the living room – "nothing beats the fragrance" – and a faux tree in the family room – "they've come a long, long way!" Both are layered with sentimental ornaments collected while

The mantle sports glittered deer with fur collars, vintage bespoke reindeer statues, and greenery laden with pinecones and oyster shells. Other seasonal vignettes feature Alison Evans oyster ceramics from Hazelnut and Ron's favorite scented holiday candles – Nest Fragrances from Perch and Thymes Frasier Fir from Little Miss Muffin.

Once the decorations are in place, the December entertaining begins. "We love to host small, intimate dinner parties and usually one or two larger soirées. Sharing the Christmas season with friends and family is a must for us," says Ron. "And we love cocktails at home,
listening to a great holiday playlist, and wrapping gifts. I love coordinated gift wrap; Scriptura is my go-to place. Presentation has always been important to me; it shows that you put forth that extra special effort."
