PORT TOWNSEND — Dozens of businesses in Port Townsend recently dressed up their display windows to celebrate the holiday spirit in imaginative and colorful ways.
The theme for the Port Townsend Main Street Program’s Holiday Window Contest was “Ring in the Holidays.”
The contest encouraged the use of sleigh bells, wreaths and lights in the displays.
■ Abracadabra, 936 Water St., won first place with “a charming winter scene starring sledding animals and stuffed toys tumbling in deep snow,” according to the Main Street Program.
It was designed by staff member Justin Lesser.
■ Tickled Pink, 825 Water St., came in second with its “dazzling curtains of silver sleigh bells and a forest of illuminated evergreen trees.”
■ April Fool & Penny Too, 725 Water St., earned an honorable mention for its “luminous display of crimson glass dishes.”
■ PT Shirt Co., 940 Water St., also won an honorable mention for a “whimsical holiday window featuring a dancing Santa wearing a Port Townsend T-shirt, a skating pond, gifts under the tree and twinkling lights.”
Each store received an award sign and a holiday poinsettia.
