ARTIST & BLOGGER Darryl Moland began his design career at Southern Living magazine. He then applied his creativity to art direction at several magazines, including Cooking Light and Atlanta. Darryl—an avid collector of ornaments and props—put his life experiences and imagination to work by creating a blog. The popularity of the blog led to The Decorated Tree, a fantasy-laden book infused with soulful memories of the people who taught him that holiday magic can be a part of every season.
