The 2008 Winter Dreams Home Tour was held on Sunday, December 7, 2008.

On Sunday, December 7th, the Junior League of NWA hosted its 10th Annual Winter Dreams Home Tour. This year's tour was better than ever. 12 beautiful area homes were included on the tour - 4 homes in Benton County and 8 homes in Washington County. Of particular note, the home of renowned architect, Marlon Blackwell, was one of the fabulous homes featured.

Guests admired the holiday décor and the work of area designers. Many took away fantastic decorating ideas, and purchased copies of the Junior League critically-acclaimed cookbook "Add Another Place Setting" that were available for purchase in a select number of homes. The cookbook continues to make a great gift for a friend or family member. For more information and to order online, simply click here.

Back by popular demand, Walmart decorated one of the featured homes AND there was a silent auction in that home for its holiday décor.
