Accessorizing Kitchen Counters


I spent some time decorating a counter in my kitchen  today.  It's an area
where I don't do any prep work, so I just had fun with it.




This miniature armoire is something I found in a thrift shop. 
I painted it and then I found little miniature fruits and veggies to
tuck inside and on top.






I often use a bit of sherry in cooking so I tucked a bottle in a wine basket
and set it along side a couple of demi johns.








That tiny tea pot was a gift from a friend.  It is shaped like a little radish
and has always been a favorite of mine.

Bentley is on high alert ~ the squirrels have been crazy
busy lately.

    It looks like you had fun and also accomplished a sweet vignette. I especially appreciate the miniature display.

    Susan, we have such limited counter space, that I don't have room for a kitchen vignette. Wish I did. ;-)
    Enjoyed seeing what you did. ~ Sarah

    Like your kitchen vignette and I also like the little tea pot. Poor Bentley is going to be exhausted chasing those squirrels . They must be getting ready for winter gathering their food.
