" 'I'm from New Orleans, and once, after a hurricane, my mother gathered the fallen magnolia leaves and preserved them in glycerine until Christmas. We painted them gold. I grew up loving the glitz of Christmas, and this tree, in my house in Los Angeles, reflects it. It holds all the blown-glass ornaments my husband and I collected in the early years of our marriage, glass beads, and the glitter-and-feather concoctions of our daughters.' " Christmas tree and home of interior designer Suzanne Rheinstein.
