On
Monday,
November
14,
2011,
the
Lord
&
Taylor
Fifth
Avenue
Flagship
store
in
New
York
unveiled
the
2011
Lord
&
Taylor
Fifth
Avenue
Christmas
Windows.
This
year,
the
windows
were
inspired
by
children’s
drawings
of
“What
is
Christmas
Made
of?”
and
an
illustration
by
Carl
Wilson
from
1941
that
shows
tiny
illustrations
and
asks
“What
is
Christmas
Made
of?”
Lord
&
Taylor
asked
children
from
Women
In
Need
shelters
and
local
schools
to
draw
what
they
believe
Christmas
is
made
of.
The
mechanical
holiday
windows
were
inspired
by
their
art
and
feature
125
of
the
original
drawings.
The
2011
Lord
&
Taylor
Fifth
Avenue
Christmas
Windows
unveiling
was
live
streamed
online
and
a
video
of
highlights
can
be
viewed
atwww.lordandtaylor.com/christmas
The
celebration
began
with
performances
by
the
Young
People’s
Chorus
of
New
York
City™
who
were
joined
by
Kathie
Lee
Gifford,
co-
host
of
the
fourth
hour
of
NBC’s
Today
Show
for
one
number.
