The kitchen, the kitchen. What a merry place to be! It’s the hub of the house…and


the place to be. Just a step away is the studio, where all kinds of fun things happen.

It’s a place to paint and create. Art, salt dough ornaments and gingerbread houses


to name just a few!

When I walk into this room I feel so at home. Almost child like. Without a doubt I


would have loved this room when I was a little girl. It is full of Christmas cheer!


A great place to listen for reindeer paws.
