Not feeling fully equipped to take on the festive month ahead? These local Dallas designers and shops are here to lend a helping hand.
Craft the Perfect Holiday Card
Can’t find a family photo where dad isn’t blinking? You can still send out thoughtful holiday cards thanks to PaperSource’s helpful workshop. Sign up to reserve your spot in the Thursday class ($28) at their NorthPark location. (That’s tonight!)
Create a Picture Perfect Tree
Local designer Billy Milner trims Christmas trees for a regular stable of clients around the country. If you’re looking to up your decorating game this year, Billy is offering tree-trimming classes at his Deep Ellum shop, Life of Riley. Stop by the shop or email Billy at [email protected] to check for class availability.
No time for a lesson? Milner was kind enough to share some expert tips in our holiday issue, on newsstands now.
