Deck The Halls With ... Preppy Needlepoint Ornaments?

By Kate Betts

It's no secret that ceramic and interior-design whiz kid Jonathan Adler is obsessed with all things preppy, from Ice Storm--style needlepoint pillows to Palm Beach pink and green. Adler is bringing his obsession--and his clean, graphic 1950s-inspired style--to festive fir trees and mantelpieces around America in a new collection of holiday ornaments and decorative accessories designed for Hold Everything, the Williams-Sonoma--owned home-accessories resource. "It's a modern take on Christmas, with lots of groovy geometry and improbable interpretations of traditional holiday colors. Instead of red and forest green, we did pink and lime," says Adler. The Hold Everything line includes needlepoint ornaments, left, stockings, felt gift bags and colorful glass votives. Prices range from $6 to $148, and products are available in the catalog and in stores.
