Kitchen cubby redo

I love constantly redecorating my PB cubby in the kitchen.  I usually decorate it for each holiday. Today though, I've decided to decorate it with some vintage kitchen items, including some old recipe cards that I found at an estate sale.
This cubby is my best excuse for all those little pieces of junk that I have to have when we are out antique shopping or hitting the garage sales!  Hope you have a great weekend, my friends!  xoxo

    Love your cubby and all the wonderful treasures. Each one looks so important when it has its own space for showing off. I need one of these!!

    I love cubbies too! I have an old metal one that I'm trying to find just the right place for in my house...so far it's looking pretty good on the screened in porch. Love the recipe cards in yours.

    Mmm lovely vingette.
    I have trouble keeping the dishes done in my kitchen most days LOL {is a tidy sink area considered a decorating skill?...} Wish I had a fraction of your wonderful style sense.
    Thanks for sharing Keep smiling and creating

    How fun to re-decorate your cubby cabinet for whatever fancies you at the time. This vignette is wonderful. Blissful weekend...

    This is beautiful! I love the fact that it gives you an excuse for grabbing those 'small' items at sales -- I have a few small drawers I decorate for the seasons and they serve that purpose for me! LOVE the idea of the old recipes . . . something else to scout out now!

    Hi there Vicki! I just love your little cubbies ,what a great idea.I have a kitchen cupboard that I do the same thing with. In the shelves below I have boxes marked, pink dishes,yellow dishes or white dishes. I usually change them 2 or 3 times a year but this year, for some reason, I have changed them 3 times since Christmas.Yesterday I put all my yellow ones out with my cobalt blue glass collection cause it reminds me of spring.
    Some might say "get a life" but I say "why not".
    Love your blog.

    Hello Dear Vicki
    I just love the way you have decorated your cubby!
    Would you believe I have one almost identical and have it in my studio full of laces, buttons, braids, threads etc. etc. and it is so handy to just go and grab from there what you need without hunting!
    Love your camera collection too!
    Have a wonderfully creative week!
    Hugs from Suzy
