My cousin Karen shared some of her decorating pictures with me and said I could share them with you on my blog. In the top photo I just love the little tree in the red basket-Longaberger I bet! The ornaments are darling on the feather tree.
Karen commented on my old cake pan and came up with her own for decorating. Yours looks great! I bought one at the BB that I use for baking and there was another that was a little rusty so I left it. Well, it sat there for almost two months and finally I bought it for $1, I might come up with other uses for it too, who knows.
Can you see Jenna's crown near the top of the tree? Isn't that fun and a special memory too!?
There are a lot of things I really like in this photo, those twig reindeer are really fun and the vintage ornaments in the jar are so pretty. But the main thing I noticed is that Karen has a twin to my hutch! I got mine at a Brandon antique store and it turns out that Karen almost bought it before I did! We both must have got a matching decorating gene as we like very similar items. Where did this one come from, Karen? Did you have it when you were considering the one I purchased?
In this photo, my favorite thing is the trophy! I'll take that if you ever get tired of it, Karen!! Oh and that metal laundry basket too. :) I know, fat chance....

I bought that at the antique store in Madison a long time ago. I don't even remember how long ago it was. I going to guess I have had it 10-12 years, maybe more.
That trophy was a "find" at Yesterday's in Alex. I had a few minutes to kill before a hair appointment so I wondered through the store. At the last moment I spotted about 6 trophies. I noticed that most were from the St. Cloud area and then....I spotted this one. It is dated 1934 and sponsored by the Evansville Creamery for a Turkey show. I could not leave without it. Jeffrey was thrilled with it also.
I bought the feather tree at the Brandon antique store also. I kept convincing myself I did not need it but "want" finally won!
