A Corner of my kitchen that has a bit of Christmas cheer. It is spreading through out the house. Most pieces were found at garage sales or second-hand stores. I collect the holly berry motif that Target had a few years back. The funny part is the only pieces I got from Target are the plates you see stacked. The other pieces were found here and there. If you think that I bought that candle because of the polka dot ribbon...YOU would be right. I am a sucker for polka dots...the candle ain't half bad either. I also wanted to share a plate project with you. I have had these plain white restaurant plates for awhile. I wanted more Christmas plates to display so I took some reproduction postcards..with scenes of Winter and decoupaged them onto the plates. After that I used glitter glue and drew a line around them. VERY easy. I think they will stand in the OTHER corner of my kitchen. That is about it for me. I have had a lot of fun venturing out into all your homes decked out for this season....I am patiently waiting to see more...tap, tap. Night, night, cherry

I love those platters with the glitter edges around the pics. LOVE them!
So charming! I love those colors together.
Just dropping in to say hello...
Every time I see your pictures I feel like I'm looking at a magazine.I love those holly plates and your whole kitchen corner!
Merry Christmas!
I think the plates turned out great! I love them! And the Christmas plates you say are from Target are so cute! I found some I like there, but yours are definitely cuter! They didn't have those there. That is so neat that you were able to find the plates at places other than Target! :) Everything you did in your little kitchen corner is beautiful! :)
I hope you have a fantastic weekend! :)
I love all your holiday decor!! You always have such wonderful things!
Have a cozy weekend

I too am a lover of all things polka dot! I love the idea of mod podging the old place cards on the white platters! They would be super cute above my cupboards! Great ideas! Can't wait to see what else you have done.
