Let's go into the kitchen. I had fun pulling out my Christmas dishes and adding them in the open shelving this year since the cabinet doors were still on last year.
Lots of traditional red and green dishes collected over the past few years.
All these stay stored away in my dish closet.
I placed my vintage looking figurines on a silver tray and a blanket of snow.
Fruit that was gifted to us sits in this vintage bowl on the chopping block.
These hang here all year.
I added a wreath with a red plaid bow to the vintage bread board.
More fruit placed on my vintage scale from France.
Oh, and Miss Bessie got all dressed up, too. I draped faux mailbox greenery over her and added a big red bell tied up with red twine. I was looking for a real cow bell for her and came across this big red bell for only two dollars at the flea market.
Oh, my gosh less than one week away from Christmas!
I have a few more gifts to wrap and one more to buy. Are you ready?
Have a super weekend!

Your kitchen is decorated so charming for Christmas! I love all the warm colors and the Christmas dishes on display. Miss Bessie has never looked better!
ReplyDeleteReady here other than grocery shopping and cooking for the Big Day! Just taking time off and enjoying the season. Doing some of our fun holiday traditions.
ReplyDeleteNow I see why it takes you so long to decorate for Christmas! I cannot imagine changing out kitchen cabinets, etc. You must have a ton of stuff to put up after the holidays. Bessie is looking good!
tina, my decorating was done in a couple days except for tweaking. Really not near as much as I used to do.
DeleteKim your kitchen is fabulous ..love that open shelving!
ReplyDeleteYour kitchen looks so fun dressed up for Christmas, Kim!

ReplyDeleteSo Christmassy Kim :) Bessie's big red bell .... so cute!!. Never seen one so big.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe we are only a week away from the big day. I am ready... but yikes!
Your kitchen is so lovely and festive. But I must say Bessie is my favorite!
ReplyDeleteForgot to mention, the vintage looking children are my favorite thing and to have them right there at the sink would make me smile all the time!
ReplyDeleteEvery time I scrolled to the next picture, I thought, "ooh, that's my favorite." The bread board with the wreath and the aprons are my top two :) All of it taken together is so festive!

I love the wreath on the bread board.
ReplyDeleteLove your open cupboard. Especially those cows. So cute. I keep mine on a lazy susan and dress him up for every holiday :-) Your kitchen is so warm and inviting. I'd love to share a cup of tea.
ReplyDeleteFun and festive, Kim! One day, I just might *have* to borrow your idea of hanging pots on the side of your cabinet. :)
ReplyDeleteOK, I'm back. I had to run to find my red striped straws and put them in a cup. I just love that whole open cabinet setup. Very festive! Oh, and Bessie's looking mighty fancy these days :)
ReplyDeleteI love it all, Kim but I especially love that wreath on the vintage bread board and the big bell on Bessie! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteMiss Bessie is the cutest for Christmas!
