Oriental Rug store Christian-Lorraine is one of the few stores in downtown Richmond that maintains the holiday tradition of seasonal window displays. It's one of the few bits of grassroots holiday spirit remaining. If there was an award I would give it to them. It's these small creative displays that really add to the Christmas spirit. There is still a lot of small business left downtown. Wouldn't it be great if the vast majority went all out and dressed up for the holidays. That's the kind of spirit festive that could turn around people's attitude about downtown and bring people back to the kind of strolling and people watching that used to be part of the Christmas tradition.
