My Sister's Decor

Well, I was right. I told you my sister liked to put cookbooks in baskets just like I do. We are so much alike. It was one of those things I started doing and she started doing and then one day we were exchanging pics and realized we both were doing that. This happens to us all the time. Thank you Sis for sending me some pics of your decor to share today. 

I do love the little vintage rolling pin in this basket of books. I need to look for one of those.


A bread cloth in the basket is another good idea.


These sit very well in this cute wire basket.


A few more in a wicker basket. That is another thing we share...our love of baskets of any kind.


She has a gorgeous collection of Fiesta Ware so I asked her to share some of those with us today. I want you to take note of the roosters and chicken scattered throughout her displays. That is another thing we share. We get our love of roosters and chickens because Mom decorated with them and still does. I don't know if Rachel remembers this or not, but Mamaw Eden used chickens and roosters at one time in her kitchen. As a matter of fact, I have 3 of  Mamaw's roosters in my house. They are very old and fragile. There is a set of a rooster and hen and then one individual rooster. I think I will bribe her that the next time she comes down she can have the smaller rooster if she wants it.

This is my favorite cabinet of her. I just love the red on it.


This is just a cute apothecary style jar she has that I like.


This is a very pretty display.


Love the little angel. And oh, look, she has a grandma's kitchen sign exactly like one I have. Told you we are SO much alike.


Love the blue chip and dip bowl.


I think she said she got this at Hobby Lobby, but not positive.


This is a very pretty display.


Check out the little cats on a rug under the table. I would never have thought of doing a display like that. She is so talented.


Love the ladder back chair under a shelf idea.


Our cousin Jeannie made Rachel this dishtowel for all her Fiesta ware. Isn't it adorable.


I love this chicken. She thinks she got it down here some where. And look at the chicken wire table. Again, we both started decorating with chicken wire and didn't have a clue we were both doing that. Just cracks me up how much we have in common. We are only 13 months apart in age so I guess it is only natural that we share so many common bonds.


I love all her displays and am adoring all her roosters and chicks. But she sent me a picture of the cutest chick she has. Her granddaughter Makenzie. Isn't she a doll baby. Her mom Amy puts her on the phone with me sometimes and she is definitely going to take after the rest of us because she loves to chit chat. 


Hope you enjoyed a tour through the decor in my sisters house today. Again, thanks Rachel for sharing these beautiful displays with us.

Next time I come down I would love to have one of mamaw's roosters. I had forgot she had chickens in her kitchen.
