Vintage Kitchen Utensil Christmas Tree

My mom loved old things and crafts.  She would have been a great blogger if she were still with us.  She passed away 12 years ago next month.  I have a crock full of vintage utensils she collected and decided to decorate a small Christmas tree with them.  My husband isn’t so sure about it, but I love it.

I feel like this will be a game of find the hidden objects. 

Here is the list:  measuring spoons, wooden spoons, cheese slicer, ice pick, potato masher, strainer,  3 different whisks, scrub brush, ice cream scoop and some weird metal thing that I am not sure is even a utensil.

Weird metal thing.

I added some faux apples for color and placed the tree in an apple basket that was already out from my fall table décor.

My husband and son are fans of colored lights.  I am not.  I had a strand of battery operated colored lights I added to this tree just for them.

I think my mom would love it too.
