Christmas Kitchen

I thought I'd just share a few photos of my kitchen all decked out for Christmas--at least part of it's done, but there's a little more to do on the other side of the room.

To lighten up the hutch a little bit, I used red with white polka dot wrapping paper taped to the back of one of the sections of the hutch.

Instead of a tabletop Christmas tree, this year I made a gumdrop tree.  I'd seen the idea in either Women's Day or Family Circle magazine.  I want to add a bow to the box the branches are sitting in, but I haven't tracked down the Christmas ribbon yet.

The Santa quilt is a simple panel I quilted a few years ago.

Here's a close up of one of my craft show purchases--the wooden gingerbread man plate.

I wish I'd gotten more done this weekend, but at least I have what's always one of the most time consuming parts done!
