Simple Christmas Tree

I have a little corner in the kitchen beside the refrigerator that I wanted to give a simple touch of Christmas.      This little  corner  isn't flooded with light like the rest of the kitchen is,    so I wanted  my touch of Christmas to have a light element in it too.

You might wonder why even bother to decorate this corner.   
 Well,   it  is  at the four corners in our home that needs a traffic light.     I can't count how many times I am at this intersection every day......going to the kitchen......down the hall to the bedrooms,  bath,  or utility room.......to the entry to answer the front door......and back again tot the family room or sun
room.

I have my simple tree planted in a mail box......isn't  that the biggest mail box you're ever seen or what!!!!

I didn't put any ornaments on my tree to keep it  simple.

I have a rag star as the tree topper.     I made this star a couple of years ago using what was left of a favorite blanket and the lone ear ring that belonged to my mother back in the 50's.     The mate to it was lost many years ago.

I have a sweet Christmas pig peeking out from behind the mailbox.

My Christmas tree is surrounded by the wall decor that has been in the kitchen for several years now.

I used a string of fairy lights on my tree.    I like the fact that the cords are almost invisible.

You've seen the white enamel Farm letters before,    they are a staple in my kitchen decor.

I "planted"   3 tree's in cute containers out in front of the greenhouse in the backyard on a gorgeous day in late October.     I still have two more to share with you later. 

Til next time.......
