My Kitchen tree is up. It doesn't change much from year to year. It has a different topper this year and a couple of new ornaments. I know some of you wanted to see some closeup photos that is why I'm posting it because most of you have seen my kitchen tree last year.

My favorites, the little pot pouring the hot chocolate & the cookie sheet with the gingerbread cookies on it.

I used to make a craft birdhouse on a stand & used kitchen ornies on some of them with red & white checked ribbon accents. It sold really well.

I love that tree. Very cute and creative. I don't think that I could even pick a favorite because I go back to look and see something else. Great job!

Tam,
Thats such a gorgeous tree!! Love all the cute ornaments and the chefs. Could I ask you where you got that topper? I am looking for a nice topper for my tiny candy tree - I wanted to get a candy fairy kind of thing like you have. TIA.

I have done a larger kitchen tree also - not completely pleased with the look so need to do some more tweaking. Mine is white and my main colors are green and red. I am trying for a candy look.

Yours is as cute as a button - I love it - I am going to look for some neat childs kitchen set to use as ornaments. I just love your little chefs and elves - thanks for sharing....

Tam, I've always loved your Kitchen Tree and the Santa Chef, but I've got to say that topper this year is really wonderful.

TFS and hugs,
Karen

Thank you everyone. I'm glad you all enjoy it. My kitchen is a small galley type kitchen and this is the main decoration in that room that helps make it feel like Christmas.
The topper I found last year after Christmas at Marshalls. It was in one of those tables loaded with elves and santas and it was actually priced at only a couple of dollars because the wings were ripped off. I found the detached wings in the bin and ended up glueing them back on. The elf is almost like new...:)

Tam, I love your kitchen tree. The chef Santa and little elves climbing the ladder are a beautiful addition. And the new little elf on top the crowing glory. I just love it.

Tam, I just want to say one more time that your kitchen tree is one of my very favs of all.

And when anyone has a "winner" why change it? ;~)

Just love this tree, it is so darling. Love the one on the rolling pin and the teacup & teapot ones. They are all just so cute and perfect on that tree. I think the Santa chef and the elves climbing the ladder just make it extra special. You are so good at finding just the right things and knowing how to use them. Luvs

Do you decorate for a living? I was just wondering because you have an incredible talent for it. It's great seeing your decorations for whatever season or holiday. Your latest kitchen tree is fantastic! Thanks for sharing it with us.
