As much as I love filling my home with Christmas cheer, a lot of the decorations I come across tend to be a bit on the…well…tacky side. I prefer using elements of nature and artisan goods to give a holiday touch – no tinfoil and plastic for me, thanks. It’s a good thing that green artists like Margaret Dorfman aim to make this festive season more stylish and sustainable. Crafted from edibles, this skilled sculptor’s Star Fruit and Daikon Veggie bowl is a holiday hit. It’s also perfect for double-duty at the 4th of July.
