Her vision of American design comes alive in her products and more recently, in her new book, Fresh American Spaces. Today Annie shares her “give” and “get” lists for the holidays, along with a favorite memory from her childhood:
My favorite family holiday tradition is… My favorite and most vivid holiday memory was hanging and opening stockings at my grandparent’s house in Bedford, NY. Instead of what most consider traditional holiday stockings, my grandmother used to cut pairs of panty hose in half, one leg to a person and hang them on the wooden fireplace mantel. They were seemingly insignificant when hung, but when we would come down in the morning to see what Santa had brought, each stretchy stocking had taken on its own unique shape, dictated by the presents held within. A dime and a tangerine were at the bottom of each stocking and there was always a stack, usually of books or games, under each stocking that the stocking just couldn’t accommodate. We would need help getting them off their nail as the stockings reached from the top of the mantel down to the floor and the weighed quite a lot! I remember my stocking being taller than I was and just loving opening each individually wrapped present and enjoying the tangerine at the end!
