Now and Then

Here's my little cupboard now. I didn't decorate it much for Christmas this year. It's a bit of a catch-all for things that don't have a home right now. The little things in the brandy snifter were found in the flower beds, tortoiseshell comb, chandelier crystal, an old marble, things from the history of the house. The little squirrel dish catches loose change from Leonard's pockets which then goes to me! The little machine is the intercom between our house and his shop.
This is the way I decorated my little cupboard/cabinet last year. Every year is different. Even I don't know what it's going to look like next. Diane

The little cabinet looks charming no matter how you decorate it.

Love the way you decorated your little cabinet ---both years. What caught my attention was the old clock. Does it work???? I LOVE old clocks and have 3 in my home... All of mine are working now....

Merry Christmas.
Hugs,
Betsy

That's me too Diane. I never plan it either. It just happens (and some years I hardly decorate a thing) This year I went kind of nuts. Sometime the spirit of the season comes and sometimes it doesn't.
I want to wish you a merry Christmas friend. We are supposed to get about 10" tonight. How 'bout you?

Variety it is the spice of life....Keeps others on their toes what you will do next.. that is my philosophy! Love the look girl and thanks for the wonderful Christmas Card.

I wish I were a "decorative" person, but alas, I am not. I do good to throw up my tree and hang some stockings...lol! So pretty Diane!
