Spiffing the Jelly Cupboard

I was thumbing through the latest copy of This Old House  magazine and saw the picture of a cabinet with the shelves decorated with yellow and green dishware, so I decided the jelly cupboard needed to be tweaked a little.  I used yellow and green, but left some red too since the back of the cupboard is red.  Here is how it looks now. All the items in the cupboard were bought at thrift shops except the red candy dish and the floral pot.  They both came with the hubby, but I think they were thrifted as well. I love the chicken wire in the doors.  That was not planned, but one of the glasses got broken, so I removed the other, and added chicken wire.  Rooster plate (consignment) Floral plate (thrift shop) Green casserole (antique shop) Green oval leaf dishes (consignment shop) Yellow Bee Containers (charity thrift shop) Sharing with: The Scoop Tweak It Tuesday Inspire Me Nifty Thrifty Tuesday Trash...

Traditional Christmas Colors in the Sun Room ~ 2012

My MIL's little jelly cupboard is all ready for Christmas.  I removed everything, and brought in a few holiday items.  I love decorating this cupboard.  The red painted back is so conducive to Chistmas decor. A snow family is perched on top.  These have been around for a while.  Especially the one in the center.   I love the red candy dish on the upper shelf. My husband had it before we married.  I found a holly green one at Habitat that I really wanted, but the price was way too much!   After a mishap that broke out the glass in one of the doors, I removed the other one and replaced both with chicken wire.  Like that even better.  Nothing inside is new.  I've had the Old World Santas for years.  It's one piece, and folds up.  The 3 little angels were a gift from my daughter. The red box was bought at a consignment shopas wer the Ball jars. I made a Christmas arrangement for the table wit...
