My kitchen window...


Red...red...red...this year I decorated my kitchen window using vintage and antique ornaments.


The more "loved" an ornament is the better I like it. 


The old Santa heads are German.


The old flocked Shiny Brites take me back to my childhood. I'm really enjoying this little bit of nostalgia as I do my daily kitchen routine!


Angela Hillstrom's cardinal...he can look out the window and see the real cardinals at the feeder.


My view...


No matter what the season, this photo is always in my window. Taken years ago, on a visit to Williamsburg, in front of a white house with a black roof...just like our little house.



Hope you enjoyed the view as much as I do every day.

Enjoy the day,
Robyn

    Morning Robyn,
    Oh my...RED...my favorite color! You did it up just perfect - lots of space on the window to display your beautiful treasures. I love your vintage ornaments. My one tree has ONLY vintage on it...and all Mercury. Taken me a few years to collect them but so fun.
    Thanks for sharing your special treasures with us again. I love coming here.

    Absolutely terrific! I love how you designed your window. The color of the ornaments is so radiant and charming. It’s perfect for the season! With a big window pane like that, I’m sure that it will provide a great view and ventilation.

    That’s a lovely way to design that window. It can really liven up the atmosphere inside your kitchen! With those decorative ornaments and fixtures, I’m really sure that you’ll be motivated to both cook and bake.
