    Our 2024 Holiday Home Tour

    ByMary Crozier December 16, 2024December 16, 2024

    There are some years that I go all out in decorating the house and property. However, this year, my goal is to create that holiday magic but in a simple way. After such a busy year, I envisioned lots of greens, garland, candles and velvet ribbon. Nearly every aspect of this year’s holiday decor incorporate…

Many of our guests attended last year’s workshop and…

    What a beautiful week here. The freezing temperatures seem to be gone and signs of Spring are popping up everywhere. If I could wish for one climate here, now would be the one.
