To the top of the porch! And down the hall! They decorated it all! The well-dressed estate all made possible by many hands behind the scenes and the generosity of homeowners, Mr. and Mrs. Levin, who with a nod, generously opened their 20,000-sf private residence.
From out on the three-acre estate there arose such a clatter with an array of refreshments from coffee barista, sparkling wines, and signature cocktails from ROXX Vodka! To the fabulous Dickens Quartet of carolers and little old driver, so lively and quick, known as jolly St. Nick, guests were amazed!
But designers we are and designers we’ll be, Beth Donlan, Quite Lovely Design, with buttons and bows, Karin Crawford, God’s Garden Treasures, with flowers and leaves. Design away! Design away! Design away all!
But it couldn’t have happened without jolly and generous sponsors galore! Alyshaan Fine Rugs, Modern Luxury Scottsdale, and Launch Real Estate | Luxe Client Group, AZ Appliances | Sub Zero Wolf Cove, AZ Printing Company, AZ Special Deliveries, and Contessa Stone, Facings of America, Image Craft, Italian Design Concepts, and LuxePros Plush Fine Deliveries, SoSocial, and Villagio Tile
And then in a twinkling, when you thought it done, the bus arrived for more fun! As a VIP party of fifty came with a bound. Dressed in their finery from head to foot, they clinked, noshed, and chatted to late in the night, on tables bedecked by Gretchen Palmer , Allied ASID and Past President, PHG Consulting & Design, Dana Reynolds Skogen , Interior Spaces, and Shawna Reed , Chapter Administrator, Your Event Florist. To their delight, Heidi Dwigun , Senior Manager, Marketing & Outreach, and Robin Pearson , Executive Director, Voices for CASA Children, with twinkling eyes gladly shared the mission of Voices along with auctioneer, Kelee Lee Walton !
You can only imagine the dimples how merry when we learned the tally raised approximately $13,000 for the
Arizona North chapter and over $20,000 for Voices for CASA Children. Our mouths drawn up like a bow, hoping that 2022 committees can form to bring this event back once more.
It took holiday spirit, tenacity, and arduous work of members and friends continued on page 10 continued from page 9 behind the scenes to make this event happen. In the end, the goodwill and recognition in the community stretched farther than we hoped and higher than imagined.
It takes more than the Dickens village to create something fabulous and that village extends to all our membership. We invite you to join incoming President Kelly Dunlop , Allied ASID in expanding on this event in 2022. And with that, to all a good night.
