"Old Custom, New Touch
Remember when Christmas meant strings of popcorn and cranberries; when wreaths and other decorations were made by members of the family? Mrs. Jack Rich decided to go back to the handmade tradition, but with a great deal of style.
There are no strings of popcorn in her home on Lake Ridge Drive, but the Riches' daughters, Gail 5, and Charlotte, 18 months, have their own wonderland of Santas, elves, stockings and trees.
All the decorations are originals handmade by Mrs. Rich, a former first grade teacher, who "had some art courses, but mostly just cut patterns from my head."
The intricate dolls on the international tree took about a day each to make, but have proved educational for Gail as they are absolutely authentic due to Mrs. Rich's research and the help of an Indian girl in Tallahassee.
The elves and Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus have papier-mâché heads and stuffed wire bodies. It took about a week to make each of them." |
