In A White House Christmas, she gives us a glimpse behind the scenes of this complex annual event, which is meticulously prepared throughout the year. We see how some of the themes are developed, how the most imaginative displays are created and how the handmade items are installed in the historic rooms by a team of volunteers. In addition to recounting her experiences in the White House – from the selection and festive entry of the (main) Christmas tree to the storage of the decorations – this book also includes 15 DIY projects, for those who want to bring the grandeur of Christmas in the White House to their own living rooms.
