Kitchen Christmas Tree

 I picked up this little tree this year at either a yard sale or thrift store, I can't remember which. But I thought it was kind of neat looking and you couldn't beat the price. It is sitting on my little table in my retro kitchen that used to be our small laundry room. The tree usually sits in the middle of our big table in the kitchen. But it's currently being used for eating supper, so I placed it out here to take the picture.

You can go here to see how to make the gumdrop ornaments. According to my stat counter, it is one of my most visited pages. They are easy to make and so pretty! Give them a try.

You can go here to see how to make the cinnamon dough ornaments.

I think they are very fitting ornaments for a kitchen Christmas tree. Don't you?
I put a star cookie cutter on top.
Do you have a Christmas tree in your kitchen?

By the way, go over to Country Whispers for her Christmas Giveaway and Granny Sue is having a give a way too.

Oh Christmas Tree

I put my trees up this past week!

A little one in front of the window in the living room is decorated with candy canes, lollipops, cinnamon cut out ornaments and gum drop ornaments. I posted here last year on how to make the gum drop ornaments. And I posted here on how I made the cinnamon dough ornaments.


And our large one is in front of the sliding glass doors in the family room. First I put all vintage glass ornaments on it and then I just had to add some of my hand made ones.



A happy note. . . two of my sons had birthdays over the weekend.

A sad note. . . my father in law passed away Saturday. He was a wonderful man and will be missed. But he is out of pain now and has gone to a better place. Remember his family in your prayers.
