Coffee Table books make beautiful gifts during the holidays…and when you can give a signed copy, well that is even better! We have two book signings during November and the first one is next week; so plan to join us!
Tuesday, November 14 1:30 - 3:00
First we welcome Laura Dowling, author of A White House Christmas. Christmas at the White House is the most beautiful and grand celebration of the year. As Chief Floral Designer during the Obama administration, Laura Dowling was responsible for the dazzling floral pieces that made the season so memorable. Laura Dowling comes to St. Michael’s Woman’s Exchange to sign copies of her book, A White House Christmas. She invites readers behind-the-scenes of this complex yearlong planning process where some of the most innovative and ambitious handmade displays were created. From architectural details to sugar paste floral vases and robotic versions of the First Family dogs, the décor inspired and delighted visitors and guests from across the country and around the world.
In addition to her White House experiences, Laura shares advice and ideas, tips and techniques for planning holiday displays at home, including step-by-step instructions for re-creating some of the most popular and original White House holiday designs.
