The Christmas Crate.

I made this Christmas Crate almost 30 years ago and it is still one of my favorite decorations to pull out each year!


I have used it to serve dips at an appetizer buffet, peanuts, chips and pretzels and candy!


Last year I tucked my canisters among the greens with one of my favorite Susan Branch books.


And this year i added my new harlequin silverware and my favorite holiday book, A Cup of Christmas Tea:


Do you that one favorite decoration that you look forward to using every holiday season?

  5. Patti, I've always thought this was an adorable container. Never realized that you have had it for 30 years. Your CC canisters are great! Love the new flatware. Who makes this? Is it MacKenzie-Childs?

  6. Yes, I have a few, but THAT box right there is downright superb, especially with all those goodies inside! Love the flatware and your canisters inside.
