Wreaths punctuated with holiday fruits, bowls enlivened with Christmas flowers, and treetops frosted with snow--these are just some of the sights that make this season so beautiful. Come celebrate all the wonders of Christmas in this edition of Christmas with Country Living. Discover unique Christmas customs from various regions of the country. Go back in time and enjoy the southern hospitality of Colonial Williamsburg (pages 14-29); the elaborate outdoor swags and wreaths seen there are inspired by the embellishments of the 1700s. Incorporate combinations of fruits, greens, and other naturals into your own holiday adornments. Get inspiration from the Adirondack style of decorating enjoyed in New York State s northerly mountains (pages 68-77). Visit two hotels in Yosemite National Park (pages 78-115), where the ornaments, the garlands, and the centerpieces reflect the history of the area. If it s a simpler holiday you re looking for this year, remember there s no greater joy than spend- ing the holidays at home. Bring the joys of the season into every room with some of our ideas for quick and easy arrangements (pages 32-35). Then greet guests--and family members--with batches of our homebaked goods (pages 130-149). However you decide to celebrate, we wish you a happy holiday season. THE EDITORS OF COUNTRY LIVING
