After putting away all the Christmas decor, it was time for a new look for the baker's rack in our breakfast area. The inspiration for January was a set of salad plates I found on clearance at Williams-Sonoma in San Antonio, when we were in town for the Alamo Bowl. I had admired these plates when they first appeared in the stores, but I resisted paying full price. They are hand-painted, so each design is a bit different.
After shopping the house, I found a few other green and gold items to coordinate with the plates. On the shelf with the plates, I added a gold bottle and a leaf-shaped bowl (that still holds Christmas candy!) On the bottom shelf, I arranged an old urn holding a small pot of ivy, a green pitcher, and a vintage covered casserole dish that was my in-laws' on a galvanized tray. The tray was found on the San Antonio trip at the Williams-Sonoma/Pottery Barn outlet in San Marcos.
On the top shelf, I placed my favorite preserved boxwood topiaries and a gold planter.
Here's the new look for the baker's rack for January.

Very cheerful! That tray is wonderful -- you are going to enjoy that a lot.
ReplyDeleteThe citrus-y colors are so yummy and warm. Perfect for this time of year, as well as summer. I like your sconces/corbels on either side, too.
