We asked a few of our designer and tastemaker friends to share their holiday tips, memories, do's and don'ts during the holiday season. Here's some insight from California-based interior designer, Lori Dennis.
GDG: What was the best gift you ever received over the holidays?
LD: Easy, my brand new baby girl Elle Bell!
GDG: What would you advise that people never give as gifts?
LD: Jenny Craig Memberships!
GDG: Are you the hostess or hostee for the holidays this year?
LD: This year I'm taking it easy and being a guest for a change. This is totally out of character for me, as a Type A control freak!!
GDG: What things are crucial to keep in mind when you’re decorating for the holidays?
LD: Never buy things that cost a fortune that can ever be used again. It's just crazy to waste anything on things that can be used for only one holiday season when so many people have nothing.
GDG: What are you most looking forward to during this holiday season?
LD: I can't wait to see my daughter and cousin, both two years old now, realize what "gifts" are and watch them tear them open with the passion only a child has for a new toy. And, to cap it off, it then ends with the sweetest "Tank You" you have ever heard!
Tell us what you're most looking forward to this holiday season with a comment below.
