Celebrate the
HOLIDAYS
the Papertarian Way!
Greetings, Gatherings & Gifting

The holidays are the perfect time to

start living the papertarian life. Join
the movement and get a head start on
new habits that help you play an active
role in building a sustainable future.
By making the smart choice to use
paper, cardboard, and paper-based
materials—and recycling them the right
way—you can help ensure a healthy
future for our planet.

Holiday Wishes:
Papertarians know that receiving
a traditional paper card in the mail
is a much more personal way to
send your holiday greetings than a
digital message. It’s also a great way
to ensure that your message won’t
get lost in an overflowing inbox or
end up in a spam folder. And you
can create a clever display with the
cards you receive for pretty and
personalized holiday decor!

OPEN

JOIN THE MOVEMENT! BE A PAPERTARIAN.

When you choose to be a papertarian you’re supporting the growth of America’s forests.
Purchasing paper goods helps create a healthy market for forest products, which in turn
encourages forest owners to plant more trees. And in the U.S., paper companies are
committed to working with private forest landowners to grow and protect forests and their
habitats. When we’re good to our forests, our forests are good to us. Go Papertarian!
 Paper-Smart Celebrations
From planning to preparation to party time, paper products play
an important role in celebrating the holidays responsibly.

Baking Best
Practices:
Papertarians know that
everyday decisions have a big
impact on the environment.
Use parchment paper to line
cookie sheets for stick-free
sweets. Choose baking products
(like milk, eggs, butter, etc.) in
paper packaging.

Setting a
Sustainable Table:
Skip the good china for dinner
and save yourself valuable time
cleaning up by using decorative
paper plates and napkins. Create a
festive centerpiece using wrapping
paper and milk cartons. Remember,
these come from a renewable
resource, and when you use paper,
you help grow forests in the U.S.

It’s likely that you do more

means more boxes…and it can
also mean more opportunities
to practice habits that help.

 JUST BY READING THIS MAGAZINE, YOU’RE SUPPORTING THE GROWTH OF OUR FORESTS.

This holiday season, give the gift that keeps on living. Here in the U.S., paper companies work with
private forest landowners to grow and maintain forests at a rate nearly double the volume needed to
make the paper products you rely on every day. And you can make the most of our natural resource
by recycling your cards, catalogs and gift boxes when you’re done enjoying them.

4 Cups Confectioners Sugar
½ cup (127 grams) Apple Cider reduction
1 tsp. McCormick® Ground Cinnamon
½ tsp. Apple cider vinegar (optional)
1 tsp. Honey (optional)
Pinch of salt
DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bring 1 ½ cups of apple
cider to a boil in a small saucepan on medium heat.
Reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until
reduced by half (¾ cup) set aside to cool. In a large
mixing bowl, sift together the flour, salt, baking soda,
baking powder, and McCormick® Spices (cinnamon,
nutmeg, and ginger). Measure out the apple butter
and sour cream in a medium bowl. Using a Stand
mixer with paddle attachment (or electronic hand
mixer), beat room temperature butter, orange zest,
light brown sugar, and sugar at medium speed
until fully incorporated and has a consistency of
buttercream about 4 minutes.
Add in eggs one at a time, until fully incorporated.
Begin adding a third of the sour cream mixture,
using a spatula to help fully incorporate it. Add in
half of the flour mixture, starting at low speed until
no flour streaks remain. Continue alternating the
sour cream mix, followed by flour mix, and finish with
orange juice, sour cream and ¼ cup (63 grams) of
reduced Apple cider. Use a rubber spatula to help
mix any parts that weren’t fully mixed in.
Generously spray a 12 cup bundt pan with cooking
spray. Add batter and set bundt pan on a rimmed
tray to avoid batter spill. Bake for 80-90 minutes total,
turning halfway through. Once a skewer inserted
into the the center of the cake comes out completely
clean, transfer the pan to a cooling rack to rest. After
10 minutes, using oven mitts, place cooling rack over
the open bundt pan, carefully turn the bundt pan
over unmolding it onto rack. The heat from the pan
helps release the cake, this should always be done
while the cake is slightly warm. Let the cake cool
completely for about an hour.
While the cake is baking, make the glaze. Sift
together the McCormick® Ground Cinnamon and
the confectioner’s sugar into a bowl. Slowly whisk
in the ½ cup of apple cider reduction. The honey
helps give a sheen to the glaze and the apple cider
vinegar helps give a subtle acidity to the final cake.
Making a little extra glaze is always a great idea in
the event that the cake may need a bit more. Cake
will store up to two days in an airtight container at
room temperature.

a crafty little
Christmas
A few years ago, I decided it would be a good idea to make my
own holiday cards. I bought heavy kraft paper from Michaels, plus
embroidery thread in red and turquoise. My plan was to stitch the
words “happy holidays” on the front of each note—more than 50 in
total, for every one of my family members, friends, and colleagues.
I was halfway through my second card when I realized it would take
me until the following Christmas to get them all done.
I ended up ditching the needle and thread for holiday-themed
rubber stamps and gold ink—infinitely easier! And I came up with
some rules to make sure my card-crafting ambitions wouldn’t get
out of hand:

DODELL-FEDER: BEN GOLDSTEIN, HAIR/MAKEUP BY DEVRA KINERY AT RAY BROWN PRO

1. Whatever I make can only involve cutting and/or gluing.
No sewing, no painting, no weaving (despite how much I
love macrame).
2. I must be able to finish all the cards in a single weekend.
As we planned the DIY holiday card story on page 36, I kept my
rules in mind. Instead of fussy designs, we went for maximum
impact with minimum effort. You can make a big batch of these
at once, and everyone on your list will be wowed by your
thoughtfulness and creativity. Even better, you’ll have
plenty of time left to shop for gifts (page 49), wrap
them (page 108), and even host a festive feast
(page 31). Happy holidays!

is it?
not bad not so kinda pretty Really super
at all! bad! bad! bad! bad! bad!

how bad is it to ask how bad is it to leave

to bring your dog to
someone’s house?
Ask yourself some questions first,
says animal behaviorist Mary
Burch, Ph.D., head of the American
Kennel Club’s Family Dog program.
Does this person like dogs? Is
your pup properly trained? Are
you prepared to watch the dog
to make sure there are no
accidents? If the answer is
yes to all, go ahead and
ask. But if you aren’t sure,
avoid putting your host on
the spot and leave your
furry pal at home.
Christmas tree lights on
when you go out?
When lights are left on too long, they
can overheat and become a fire hazard,
“especially when they’re wrapped around
dry, flammable branches,” says Stephanie
Berzinski, a safety educator at the fire
protection company Kidde. More than 150
home fires involving Christmas trees take
place every year. To avoid a dangerous
blaze, always turn off your tree lights when
you leave. And consider using LED bulbs,
which are safer.

is caused mostly by sulfur-

and though it’s tough to remove,
it’s not toxic. Just avoid food

Vellum Gifts
1. Cut strips of different-color vellum in varying
widths and lengths to mimic gift boxes, lids, and
a ribbon. Trim some of the strips at an angle so
they look less uniform.
2. Use a glue stick to glue the vellum boxes to the
card, spacing them a few centimeters apart, then
glue the lids on top so they slightly overlap the
boxes. Glue the “ribbon” vertically over the stack
and add a few smaller strips at the top for a bow.

Paint-Chip Wreath
1. Use a 5/8-inch circle punch to cut circles out of
green paint chips from a hardware store (or several
shades of green cardstock).
2. Glue the paint chips to the card in a circle with a
glue stick, overlapping them as you go.
3. Tie a thin piece of green ribbon into a bow and
hot-glue it to the top of the wreath.

or years Lizzy Pendleton’s husband,
Clay, tried to persuade her to move
from Houston, TX, to the mountains of
Colorado. “I kept telling him no way,
I don’t like cold weather—and I couldn’t ski!”
Lizzy says. But then Clay, a urologist, got a great
job offer in Steamboat Springs. Lizzy agreed to
try it for a year, and a decade later, the family
is still there. “I fell in love with the community,”
she says. The couple’s kids walk to school,
even in the snow (Lizzy does too; she’s a social
worker there), and they sled with neighbors
right out their back door. A recent renovation
transformed the 1970s house into a modern,
cozy family hangout. With the help of local firm
Rumor Designs, they chose neutral colors and
natural materials, which turned out to be the
perfect backdrop for the Pendletons’ colorful
Christmas decorations. “The holidays here are
so fun,” says Lizzy, who finally learned to love
winter sports. “We even ski on Christmas Day!”

“The goal was for this room to work
as well for quiet reading as it does for
family game night,” says Lizzy. The white
Rene Cazares sectional is upholstered
in performance fabric, and the textured
Jaipur Living rug holds up to heavy foot
traffic. Come Christmas morning, the
family gathers around the leather-and-iron
coffee table from Four Hands.

The asymmetrical table, from Four Hands,

says Lizzy. She added the curvy padded

The Pendletons bake a lot around the
holidays, so the team from Rumor Designs
planned plenty of counter space. The island
is topped with black granite; the rest of
the counters are Taj Mahal quartzite. Lizzy

by Karman to give the space a more rustic
feel. The barstools are from Wisteria.

“She rules the roost and loves this spot so

a striped wallpaper from Phillip Jeffries
for the accent wall; the sconces are from
Visual Comfort & Co.

all grown up
nyone might feel the
itch to move after
living in the same
home for 20
years, but for designer and mom of
five Saudah Saleem, the urge came
on especially strong in early 2020.
“We’d outgrown our townhouse
physically, even with my oldest,
Jasirah, getting ready to move out,
and I’d outgrown it from a design
perspective. I’d done all the projects
I could do there,” says Saudah.
Looking for a fresh start and a
bigger yard, the family moved into
a 100-year-old home not far from
their old place in Baltimore, MD,
that had been flipped by a builder.
Saudah started personalizing every
room, her creativity fueled by new
blank spaces to decorate. “When
my kids were younger, I leaned into
more playful colors and choices.
These days, things look a little more
sophisticated, but we still have fun!”

LIVING ROOM
Saudah decorated this space with blues and
greens, including a performance velvet sofa from
Anthropologie, which she chose for its shape.
“I like the coziness that the curve creates,” she
says. The swivel chairs are from Kirkland’s Home,
and the stools are from Burke Decor. They come
in handy as extra seating but easily tuck away
when the kids aren’t home.

had a huge impact.
Since the move, the family has started cooking I used large floor tiles, so
more. “It’s nice to be together in the kitchen without
feeling like we’re on top of one another,” says
I didn’t need many.
—Saudah
Saudah. She replaced builder-grade lights with
new pendants from Pottery Barn and added a gray
marble backsplash and gold cabinet pulls.

DINING ROOM
Saudah scored this burlwood table secondhand for
just $300 and paired it with acrylic chairs that she
has had for years. “Those chairs are my tried-and-
true because they are so easy to clean, and I love
how you can see the table through them,” she says.
71 HGTV Magazine
house tours

BATHROOM
The kids share this bathroom, so Saudah gave
everyone a say on the wallpaper. They agreed on
this zebra pattern from The Inside. “I love that it’s
peel-and-stick, so I can remove it if we ever want to
switch it up,” says Saudah. She replaced the existing
cherrywood vanity with a navy one from Lowe’s to
make the space feel more custom.
 MAIN BEDROOM
After making sure everyone else was comfortable
with their rooms, Saudah got to work on her own.
“I was going for an elegant hotel retreat,” she says.
She chose sculptural sconces from Alora Lighting,
a bed with a tall tufted headboard from Saatva,
and wide nightstands from an estate sale.

Framing the sconces

SAMORI AND
ZARIA’S BEDROOM
The two youngest kids share a room, and making
it look gender-neutral was the goal, says Saudah.
She paired terra-cotta walls with a sleek white
bunk from The Home Depot and blue and black
accents. “This color scheme makes the room feel OFFICE
like something they can grow into,” she says. This bonus space in the basement quickly took
shape as a homework area. Saudah spruced it up
with wallpaper from Spoonflower, blue desks from
Wayfair, and faux-leather chairs from Poly & Bark.
“Samori and Zaria are at the desks all the time!”

L ouisville is known for a lot of things: world-renowned bourbon distilleries,

the Kentucky Derby, iconic baseball bats—and now the 2023 HGTV
Urban Oasis. This year’s house, which will be given away in an epic
sweepstakes, is a fully rebuilt and restored 1925 Craftsman, just a four-
minute drive from the city’s trendy NuLu neighborhood. “It’s the hippest area
of downtown, so we added some youthful flair,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn.
For the exterior, he chose James Hardie shingles in a smoky blue and painted
the door Midday by Sherwin-Williams, then he filled the inside with vintage finds
and cheeky prints. Turn the page to see more!

kitchen Instead of tiling just the backsplash,

Brian covered all the walls in glossy ceramic squares.
“Everyone thinks it’s wallpaper!” he says. “We used
basic tile, but the two colors and checkered pattern
make it look high-end.” He painted the cabinets to
match the exterior of the house. The stools are from
Wayfair, and the pendant lights are by Hunter.

loft This upstairs space serves as a

casual sitting area. “It’s a great place to
watch the Derby from home,” says Brian,
who created a gallery wall to camouflage
the TV. He scored the vintage chairs
at a flea market and covered them in
plaid wool from Wayfair. The custom
wallpaper, by Ashley Bothwell, features
the architectural plans for a distillery.

chairs from Wayfair in colors that echo the
ones he used inside. “I wanted this space to
feel like a true extension of the interior.” The
long dining table is just three lightweight
tables pushed together. “The weather here
is pretty awesome year-round, so a place to
eat outside was a must,” Brian says.

The family couldn’t decide on
flooring, so designer Diana
Weinstein suggested painting
a tile-inspired design on
wood. If Pam and Alex tire of
the look, they can sand it off—
but for now, they adore it. “As
soon as you step in, you think,
Oh this is fun! ” says Pam.

As a nod to the home’s age—it
was built in 1892—the family
chose ceramic tiles in a custom
metallic glaze that reminds
them of tin. “They connect the
kitchen, which is new, to the rest
of our older home,” says Pam.

two-tone cabinets
“When we met Diana, she told us she doesn’t
do white kitchens, and we loved that about
her,” says Pam. The designer suggested pale
gray for the upper cabinets (Modern Gray by
Sherwin-Williams) and green for the lowers
(Rosemary by Sherwin-Williams), a color they
repeated on the floor.

POINTERS FROM A PRO

David Visentin of Love It or List It gives us the scoop on buying a ski house.

MAKE STORAGE A MUST BUDGET FOR SNOW CONSIDER OFF-SEASON

“Skiing involves a lot of gear, so a
dedicated area like a mudroom is
essential,” says David. He also suggests
creating multipurpose rooms with
pullout beds for hosting guests.
Fresh powder is why people want
to live in ski towns, but it also means
you may need specialized insurance
coverage plus a seasonal contract
for snow removal.
Imagine how you’ll use your house
beyond the winter months. “If you
won’t live there full-time, consider
renting it out, and enlist cleaning
and management help,” he says.

By choosing paper products, you’re taking a
sustainable path forward that also gives back.
When you use paper products, you’re doing your part to help the planet. Because the paper, packaging and
boxes you rely on every day can be recycled up to 7 times. In fact, paper is one of the most recycled materials
in the U.S., and it comes from a natural and renewable resource—trees. Choosing paper products encourages
America’s private forest landowners to grow and maintain healthy forests at a rate nearly double the volume
needed to make the products you rely on every day. And that’s something we can all feel good about.

CHOOSE PAPER AND PAPER PACKAGING AND BE A FORCE FOR NATURE
