Woodsy Setting, Seasonal Style

One-of-a-kind log mantels and rustic doors--many created by carpenters using materials found in the woods nearby--make a perfect backdrop for Molly and Darlene's all-natural decorations for the Main Camp. To get a head start decorating the deep porch and several large rooms, they purchased ready-made wreaths and lengths of garland. Then they attached pinecones and other materials using wire. For the front door, they created a fuller wreath by wiring a boxwood wreath onto a fir one. Tartan ribbon and strips of plaid fabric add sparks of red.

The designers surrounded the front entrance with boxwood garland; twisted lengths of the same material adorn the gabled timbers of the porch.
