Peek In my Shabby Cabinet

A while back I had somebody ask me for a peek inside my Shabby Hoosier Cabinet...
It holds my Family Christmas Dinner Dishes...
 During Christmas, I host the family dinner, so, I found a simple set of white dishes with gold trim at The Pink Door for $8 (Whole Set)!
I have never found them too exciting to show until I played around with the arrangement and added some shabby white goodies...
This dinner is large 25-30 people in my tiny home so, I try to keep the table simple... 
here is a peek of what I put together last year...
This cabinet is just so much fun to fluff around with!
Check back for more Shabby Goodness!

    Dear Olivia ~ the peek at your Christmas table is such a tease! I'm sure you put on such a special dinner and I do hope you share more photos. I have been looking at purchasing a Hoosier for several years now but still have not. Did yours come that lovely colour or did you paint it?

    Hi Olivia! Oh, I've enjoyed peeking inside your cabinet! First of all I love the color of your cabinet. Your stacked your dishes ever so neatly in there and I like all the pretties that sit on the shelf.
    Be a sweetie,

    Simple white dishes can be paired with so much. You made me want to bring in from the shed my own hoosier to fill. Maybe next year....

    Hello Olivia,
    I love your hoosier!! I have one also and want to paint it white and shabby it. It still scares me to paint it as I don't want to mess up!!!
    Thank you for sharing!!!

    Hello Olivia! Love Hoosier Cabinets! I was just minutes too late at a garage sale where a couple was selling all the remains from a previous owner! They gave away a marvelous Hoosier Cabinet for $20! Someone was blessed! Your dishes are wonderful! I am hosting a Christmas Party on December 6 - would love for you to join in!
    God Bless,
    Kathy
