little bit of Christmas kitchen decorating

I don't do much in my kitchen as far as Christmas decorating.

Just little touches here and there.

I would love to set a beautiful holiday table, but two of my cats

seem to think that tablecloths are made for their napping space.

Cat hair on a table isn't exactly appetizing.

I seem to have a "thing" for red and white this season.

Hubby asked me what the pomegranates in the fruit bowl were for.

I told him they were for decoration. I thought they looked so pretty

with the green apples.

He said, "You're kidding, right?" 

Silly man.

Went with the red and white theme in my china cabinet, too.

Couple of little shelves on one of the kitchen walls...

I pinned the vintage Christmas cards to this birdcage that hangs 

in front of the kitchen window. 

Would probably look prettier and more festive with bittersweet

or some kind of garland wrapped around the top of the cage...

Might get to that later. Or never. ;-)

My snowmen shelf...

Just 8 more days...are you ready?!
