This year I have a freshly cut tree. And a new buffet in my downstairs kitchen. I'm excited about both.
The buffet is a chippy white painted dresser that I discovered was the same height as my kitchen counter top. So I filled it up with some freshly baked gingerbread men.
And a fresh cut spruce that I added as a table top tree inside my crackle painted urn.
Everything smells so fa-la-la- lovely! The scents of Christmas time gathered all together on my new buffet.
My glittered pine cones have a wonderful cinnamon scent as well.
I even have some paper whites growing in a Terra cotta pot.
My table top spruce is decorated with a few mercury glass ornaments.
I added some vintage and very distressed silver ornaments under a glass cloche atop a silver plated pedestal dish. If you look closely, you'll see a starfish and white sea shell tucked in along side them.
Truth be told, the gingerbread men you see in this picture are the first batch I baked. Today I made another batch and then I moved the contents of the buffet around twice. Just playing and having fun.
The day sure does go quickly this time of year. It gets dark here at 4:00 pm.
Thanks for stopping by and taking a look at what I have been up too. I hope your day was just as enjoyable as mine was!
