The Pewter Plates Are Finally Displayed

My decorating tastes have changed over the years - from “cutesy” Country - to a more Traditional Country - to Primitive.  I have loved Primitive antiques for many years, but cost and availability in our area have made decorating our home with Prim decor a slow process.  Thanks to makeovers, reproductions and my husband’s willingness to make things for me the transition is becoming a reality.

What does this have to do with the pewter plates?

Well, I have been wanting to change the display on our entertainment cabinet (made several years ago by my DH) to a more Prim look and the pewter plates just seemed to make the display come together.

Here is a before photo – not a very good picture, but you get the idea.


I’ve asked my DH to make doors for the TV area – we’ll see if that becomes a reality.

The new look.

What do you think?  Is it looking more Prim?  I will continue to change things out as I am able to find more Prim goodies, but for now I am happy with the look.

I hope y’all are having a restful Sunday afternoon,
Sue
