Christmas Decorating - SPODE

I have a bit of a Spode obsession.  I love its nostalgic feel and classic color scheme.  It just reminds me of all things old-fashioned, I guess.  This Christmas I decided to turn my kitchen window sill (scroll to the bottom of the post to see what it normally looks like) into a little Spode spot.  I packed away just about everything, used an antique pottery planter to put the miniature tree (the burlap covered type from Michaels) in and got to work.  I have a collection of Spode ornaments - mostly kitchen themed so they're a perfect fit for the kitchen window sill.  I also put my Spode tea set in the window sill too.  Anyone else have a Christmas china obsession?  If you don 't have one yet, may I recommend Spode?  Don't ever pay full price - HomeGoods, TJMaxx, and Marshalls have Spode at great prices.  I found this tea set for about $40 a couple years ago online - it's regularly priced at $325!

  1. This will definitely make washing all of those holiday dishes more enjoyable! So pretty, and a great way to use those items that might not otherwise have a place.
