December 2011-- Richmond, Virginia Holiday Design Style

Soon after Thanksgiving weekend, many people in the Fan and along Monument Avenue slowly but surely begin to decorate their homes for the Holiday Season. Every year a vintage Cadillac is heavily decorated inside and out and parked alongside the owner's home, with Santa sitting in the driver's seat with presents overflowing both the seats and the top of the car. The best eye candy, however, are homes' front doors which take on extravagant splendor in color, evergreen garland, ribbon, ornaments and lights. The doors are festive and welcoming. Although there are many, here are just a few splendidly designed door installations. Enjoy!
