Welcome Holiday Guests in Style

Julee Rosso, author of the Silver Palate Cookbook and owner of the Wickwood Inn in Saugatuck, Michigan, shares insights about cooking, decorating and entertaining that will make your holiday hosting more meaningful.

Let nature inspire you

Julee uses natural/found objects for their interesting textures and shapes. She finds inspiration at her local farmers market: dried artichokes (baby and grand), nuts in their shells, chestnuts, blue hydrangeas. She also decorates with sage, bay leaves, rosemary, rose hips, holly, juniper, pine, blue spruce, pinecones, eucalyptus and loads of small dried gourds and pods, natural and painted (shiny red, gold or silver). Then, wherever she can, she adds all kinds of evergreens to faux garlands and trees.
