Window Dressing

Window dressing is the act of thoughtfully improving the appearance of something to make it more appealing or presentable—especially when first impressions matter. In a clothing store, for example, you want to display your best apparel in the window. For my buddies from my hometown of East Helena, Montana, hanging an electrified beer sign in the window would qualify.

If you're a Filipina, placing plants in the window is the requisite form of window dressing. I’ve posted two photographs from my house to illustrate this method.
