dream..What an AMAZING Kitchen display!! I love it all. I would love to sit down at your table there and enjoy it with a cup of tea. I love all the candy decos and the large ceramic cupcake is so pretty..where did you get that? Your cabinet with the lace doilies and the pink ornaments w/your china is beautiful Also, I love the Gingerbread house nestled in with the gingerbread boys and glass jars. I don't want to foget about your fantastic tree w/all the candy ornaments...a kid's dream.. Also, you have a great nutcracker collection and I like how they are displayed w/the lights. Great..Great display. Thank you.
By the way, my kitchen is the only place I haven't decorated..now after seeing yours, it's looks real blah!! lol..

I love it! What a magical kitchen..candy land. I love your gumdrop tree. Where did you find that? My grandkids would love your room. Beautiful!!

Oh my goodness! You sure found some wonderful items to use in your candyland theme. Love the closeups you gave us, but now tell us more about which items you bought and which ones you created yourself if you would. The garland along the top with that sugared fruit, the sweet little house, the peppermint trees on the pedestal/glass stand, the big gumdrop looking tree, the santa cookie with lucious looking icing, and that wonderful cupcake cookie jar--all just luscious looking! Wonderful! I'd be hungry all the time in a kitchen like that! LOL

What a delightful deliciously yummy kitchen display - I won't even comment on individual things because I JUST LOVE IT ALL - thanks for sharing :) ....

OMG I LOVE that Cupcake cookie jar too!

BTW, I LOVE the rest of your decorations too, you did a great job!

PLEASE, PLEASE, let me come live in your stunning home!!!! You have such a talent for decorating and photographing your home. I'm totally blown away!! It's a childhood wonderland!! So many things to look at it would take hours to look at each thing. And is that a Hoosier Cabinet?!!! Love them. Right out of a magazine again!
Thanks for all the photos. It's all beautiful.

Slinkey, tea will be served promptly tomorrow at 5:00. Christmas attire required. LOL! I bought the cupcake cookie jar at Hobby Lobby about a month ago. They also had cookie trays, mugs with spoons, and little candy dishes in the cupcake design. I really wish I had bought some of the mugs too while I was down there. I even went online to see if I could find some, but no luck.

Livvyandbella, I found the gumdrop tree online last year from a company called Christmas Central. They have some really pretty goodies and the prices aren't too bad. They also sell on ebay under the name Merchant Overstock. Next to my Wizard of Oz tree, this one is my childrens' favorite tree. I think I have little elves living in my house though...the levels of candy in all my jars keeps dropping. All my children swear it isn't them that's swiping pieces of candy. Yeah, right.

Luvs, I bought everything that you see. Most of it I bought last year, well except for the candy. I've had the sugared fruits and candy pics on the garland for several years...I think I bought them at Michaels.

Lynne, yummy is exactly what I was going for! When I saw Judith's candyland tree a couple of years ago, I just had to do one for my children and grandchildren. I can't seem to make my grandchildren understand though that it isn't real candy on the tree.

Catiecupcake, with your name, you definitely need one of the cupcake cookie jars! I was so tickled to find it especially since it's pink. It's so hard sometimes to find pink Christmas stuff.

Bright, just come right on over! I can always squeeze in one more. LOL! Yes, that's a Hoosier cabinet. When I bought it years ago, my kitchen was green. It fit right in then, but now it kinda sticks out. I've debated painting it and getting new knobs for it, but just have never taken the time to do it.

Oh, now I'm really really upset that we don't have a Hobby Lobby out here! You gals always find the neatest stuff at such great prices there and at that Christmas Tree shop that we don't have here either! I'm going off to pout now. Luvs

Dream, I almost felt 5-years-old again! I agree with everyone, you do a fantastic job. But, while I'm sitting here drooling and dreaming, I also think you must be a genius....decorate every surface in the kitchen = CAN'T COOK!

I might have to try that next year, but then again, the 17-year-old might go into a state of delirium and start trying to eat the decorations.... Oh well, nice thought while it lasted!

Alex

Fantastic job!! Love it all, thanks for sharing.

Luvs, have you ever been to a Hobby Lobby? If not, you would love it!! Talk about enabling...that place will absolutely break the bank. Christmas Central is online...I'm adding the link below.

Bourbonlady, there is a method to my madness! LOL!! I've got a 17 year old too, and he could eat you out of house and home. I wonder how well that would go over with DH...hmm, honey I can't cook cause I've decorated the stove. You know I don't wanna get grease all over my garland and ornies! LOL!!

Here is a link that might be useful: Christmas Central

Beautiful Dream,,like a fairy land!

(Alex, I like the way you think! LOL)

Dream....your kitchen decor IS a sweet dream! You did such a wonderful job, and so much to look at that I keep going back to the photos. I think that cupcake cookie jar is really cute. Everything is.
And more photos for our album too. LOL.
Its really growing this month!

hugs, Karen

Dream, thats beautiful. Ditto on what everybody else said. And you have this consistent pink theme going through out your house which is great. I love the gingerbread houses and the candy garland on your tree. Lovely!

Mo

Dream, I have been to a Hobby Lobby, first place I always want to go when we go to the Midwest to visit family! LOL

Thanks for the link on the other one, I'll take a look.

DreamGoddess- Thanks for posting your pictures! I do a candyland tree (inspired by Katnapp) Anyway, I've been in such a rutt or just not interested in decorating this year and I haven't done mine or finished the regular tree for that matter. Your pictures are so beautiful and inspiring, you've got me wanting to do up my candy tree (won't be nearly as great as yours)!! Once you get going on the candy theme I'm always on the look out for more candy ornaments. Thank you for posting and getting me in the mood!

Did you make that fabulous gingerbread house? I am amazed!

It's lovely! I love your kitchen! Makes me think to the candy store in Harry Potter! It's more than lovely, it's like a fairy tale!
