For me, one of the most magical events of the holiday season is the annual window unveiling at Carriage House Designs– a spectacular shop in downtown Howell, Michigan. This year’s circus-themed event featured carnival funhouse lights, sweet treats, mini clowns, party hats, painted ladies and, of course, an entire store stocked with delightful gifts. Owner, and all-around lovely spirit, Kim Wilson (above left, with staffer Kim Kole-Smith) fills her place with fairy goods, sparkly jewels, unique treasures, and other “fun stuff” all whipped into a fanciful confection that is worth making it a destination stop at any time of the year.
