Modern holiday craft projects
Warm up a modern home for the holidays, with not a garland in sight
Streamline your holiday style
This is not a story about a poorly decorated home in need of a makeover and a splash of holiday cheer. Owners Nadia Bizzotto
and David Youngson are themselves in the design business (she founded the handbag company Two Loops; he’s a sales agent for
the likes of Kikkerland), and their two-year-old house in British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley is cleanly modern—even their
four whippets and two cats hew to the prevailing earth-tones palette.
But when their friend Paige Russell, a ceramist, asked to help deck their place for the season, they were thrilled. “We love
Paige’s homemade sensibility,” Nadia says. “She shows us how warmth can still be modern,” adds David. Just call Paige their
holiday fairy.
