Update China Cabinet with Zazzle Craft Paper

  

Every year I decorate my China Cabinet for the holiday season and even when I used fairy lights, I thought it looked dark.  This year I updated the China cabinet with craft paper from Zazzle.com

 


Zazzle sells craft paper that can also be used to wrap your gifts.  Unlike the gift wrap paper that is sold at card stores, I found that the weight of Zazzle’s paper is perfect for crafts and for background décor displays.

 

I really like the premium weight of this paper, It's easy to work with and I found the presentation to be beautiful.

 

Here are some photographs of the winter season paper with snow and forest that I used in my China cabinet.  View this craft/gift wrapping paper here.

Woodsy Winter Season Decor Ideas

 Woodsy tree branches added fragrance and ambiance to the décor of my home. The greenery and pine cones made us feel like we were at a cabin in the woods. Instead of buying winter centerpieces, you can make your own, here are some ideas. 


Instead of buying centerpieces and wall swags for the winter season, I created unique decorations with cuttings from evergreen cypress and balsam trees. I used a combination of branches along with pine cones to create wall-hanging displays and centerpieces.


I had fun putting the decorations together and really liked the way everything turned out. Fresh greenery was so much better than artificial. Know that the pine cones that I used were scented with cinnamon and a few were dipped in silver glitter.


Note After the winter holidays I removed anything that pertain to the holiday and left the greenery and pine cones up throughout the winter season.


Here are a few photographs of the winter season decorations that I created from evergreen tree cuttings.






Here are a few of my pine cone and winter greenery decorations that you may like.  View all at my online Zazzle store.

Elegant Vintage Christmas Tree Home Decorations


If you are like me and love vintage Christmas tree home decorations then you will like my new holiday products.



The design features a vintage candlelit Christmas tree with a faux embossed white snowflake background. Then I added an element in dark green with a gold border to highlight the metallic gold text “Merry Christmas”. I really like how this design turned out and think that it will compliment Christmas tree-designed china like the one by Spode or Lennox.

Here is the vintage Christmas tree table runner.  I used it on my buffet.



Here is a photo of my table setting from last year. You can see that the Christmas tree design on the plate will look beautiful with the Christmas tree table runner (in the image above).




Know that many of the vintage Christmas tree product designs are templates so you can edit to personalize or to add your own graphics or photographs. You can also transfer the design to another product.
