Versatile Vintage

I'm sharing my very versatile vintage tray that is fast becoming
one of my favorite finds.  Every season I am finding new uses for it and today it is making an appearance as my bedroom
"touch of Christmas".

 

I filled it with an olive~ green glittered tree candle, moss,
evergreen cuttings, pink berries, white Christmas bulbs,
and the last half~frozen pink roses left on my bushes.

 

It sits on my vanity coupled with several other treasured items 
and a picture of my daughter.

 



 


I love to walk into a room and find Christmas smiling at
me, even if it is in a very small and simple way.

    Cindy, This display is really, really pretty! Love the way you added a little bling with the roses and white balls. I see what you were talking about with adding in the texture.... Hope you had a fun day with us at the barn and lunch. I hit a little bad weather coming home, but it was ok. I got in about 6p.m. I stopped to see the husband in Springfield for a few minutes. Hope you got your other "chores" done. :-) Sue
