Christmas 2009 Source Guide
A Lifetime of Tradition
Christmas at the Malmberg house—the only saltbox in Rockford, Illinois—melds antique cotton ornaments with special childhood memories.
Christmas in the North Woods
Eight feet of snow is not enough to keep the Scharls’ wilderness home from hosting friends and family for a handmade holiday get-together.
A Tale of Two Nations
The Wolcotts held hopes that their early-19th-Century home would help bring two nations together—native and European. The home, now a museum, celebrates the holiday and promise of peace each year.

Hook a Holiday Pillow (or Two)
A Common Linen Doll

Build a Tape Loom
We’ve updated this old favorite that’s easy for woodworkers to make and a joy for weavers to use. Make it as a gift—or use it to make gifts!
