The Christmas Kitchen Swap Was Fun!

Thank you Erica, for another very fun swap!

The minute I saw this darling gingerbread and gingham red swap invite, I knew I had to join!

I had the pleasure of swapping with Sweet Susie, from Little Susie Homemaker!

Boy, did she ever spoil me!

When hubs brought in this red polka-dotty box, I just knew there would be lots of fun inside!

Look at this flour sifter filled with treats! Susie painted it, I think. it is so cute! I love the wiggly eyed snowman! And, the recipe holder salt shaker is adorable! And of course the cookie cutter with the tiniest tree ever! Love it all!!!

So Cute!

Love the aqua blue color, and looks so cute in my kitchen! There is a sweet towel inside, candy and a cute cutter, too.

Yummy!

Perfectly fits in with my kitchen cuteness!

She also made this pretty white sparkly tree that sits on a Jello mold!

And some candy, and these cuties!

Thank you Susie, for an adorable swap! Everything looks so perfectly cute in my kitchen. It was fun getting to know you better, too! You are so Sweet!


I forgot to take pictures of what I made for Susie. Here are pics that she took and has on her blog.


I had a blast thrift hunting for kitcheny things to embellish.

Thank you again, Erica, for this fun swap!

And, to my new better friend, Susie!

Thank you, and Merry Christmas!

Christmas Kitchen Cuteness

Santa and the Mrs. are happy in the kitchen now that they have their sweet tree up and decorated!

And, I had a wonderful time using some of my vintage kitchen items to make festive decorations.

My Grama's red spatula (hard as a rock) is the base of the tree. Sandy gave me the silver shiny reflector! Perfect to cover up the styrofoam ball.

I found this potato masher at the thrift store. I painted the handle red of course! The little deer and basket were there, too.

This red topped syrup dispenser makes a cute snow globe!

And, as usual, I forgot to take pictures of the cute kitchen inspired things I made for Susie (Homemaker), for the swap. I hope she takes some pictures, because I love the measuring spoon snowman I made her!

Have a wonderful week preparing for Christmastime!

Thank you for visiting me!

Blessings, Patti.
