What's new at Mackenzie-Childs....

Here's the new M-C wreath in their black and white ornaments...don't call them to order it because it cost thousands of dollars!
(I painted a bunch of these ornaments for my kitchen Christmas tree)
I visited the main store in Aurora again this past week and saw some new pieces on display in the farmhouse, like this beautiful buffet:
And I am thrilled to say they are covering their furniture in the new courtly checked fabric:
(note to self: buy some white fabric and pull out your fabric paints)
I love this chair:
(note to self: make this pillow)
And how about this outdoor furniture:
I love the stripes on one side and the checks on the other:
This is my new piece, which holds my tea bags:
And it looks pretty good beside the jar covers that I painted last year:
When I win the lottery, I am going to buy it all!
Stay tuned to see my M-C knock-off Christmas tree - it's almost finished!

  2. Your knock-offs, my friend, are absolutely AMAZING. I sit here with my mouth open every time I see something you've done with your trusty Sharpie or fabric paints. Must be fun to see the M-C collection and get your artistic self inspired!

  6. Hello new friends,
    OMG you are the best! Have you seen the Christmas house in courtly check with the glass candy for the roof. I have it almost figured out (involves mini, 1/2", black and white ceramic tile, which I already have) and will advise when done. My husband says I spend an inordinate amount of time plotting and planning.
