{Christmas} in the Kitchen!

Sorry I have been kinda lax about posting the past two weeks. I have so many projects in my head for the holidays that I kind of have an attention disorder this time of year! I get so giddy every time I complete a holiday project.

That being said....I am a little giddy today because I finally completed my little kitchen vignette. I spend so much time in the kitchen, that I decided I owe myself a little holiday decor to make me smile while doing the dishes!


Isn't it pretty?

My mother-in law bought me these little rosemary trees. I think they are perfect for the kitchen decor, especially because I use a lot of rosemary in my cooking. They will be very handy next to the sink instead of outside in my garden!

I found these little metal buckets at JoAnn's as well as the green ribbon.
(Didn't know the ribbon was crooked till I posted this pic! sorry!)


I took my valence down and used the rod to hang the green ribbon. I used alternating shades of green. Then I tied these mercury glass beauties to the ribbon.



The ornaments are so pretty and only $2 at Target!



I found these already painted letters at Michaels for $2.99 plus 40% coupon! I was pumped! (I really wanted to spell out JOY, but all the J's were gone! Ah Well!)

I added a little fresh garland from outside and there you have it!
My Christmas Kitchen Vignette!

Now I am going to want to be in the kitchen during the holiday season!

What holiday fun do you have going on?

  4. I love this beautiful Christmas vignette! Those mercury glass ornaments are AMAZING and they kinda want to live at my house, I think. :)
