25th annual holiday house tour

I am excited to once again be apart of the Station Gallery's Holiday House Tour. This charitable event allows you to step inside some of Durham's most beautiful homes, decorated for the holidays by local designers. Michael Penney will be lending his talents to a gorgeous Tudor-style home on Connaught Street in Oshawa. So grab your girlfriends and get ready to be inspired!
