Tree Star Plate Holder….I don’t heart you anymore….
I have owned this gaudy gold tree plate holder for years…it came with gold rimmed plates…. It felt so good to get the ORB spray paint out and give it an update….
I added some of my peppermint plates that I bought last year on clearance and added my thrift find Santa I bought this summer.
I just began decorating this weekend and my house is a wreck – I had to add on about 5 new containers for my fall decorations. I found 2 boxes of Halloween that I didn’t even use this year. I also figured out that I don’t have alot of Christmas things…..you know what that means – Drats – I have to do more shopping !

Cute makeover, Kammy. I love those peppermint plates!
At first I was thinking, I cannot believe you are going to toss that...so glad you painted it instead! It's cute. Especially with the red/white plates.
Cute makeover, isn't it wonderful what a can of paint will do? loving the peppermint plates. Good luck in shopping for more holiday decorations..:-))

You know, Kammy, it looks more expensive! Love that oil rubbed bronze paint. I'm gonna have to get some. Linda
I have that same gold tree plate holder! Yours looks great painted, great idea!
Too cute! Love it. Good ole paint to the rescue. Rosie
Wonderful makeover. I was with Atticmag and thinking 'Don't throw it out-paint it!" So glad you listened to us, LOL.
Dear Kammy,
Cute!
It's fun to see what items turn into with paint.
God bless,

Love it painted and with the peppermint plates! I was starting to wonder about you Kammy, glad to see you posted! Hugs, Cindy
What a difference, Kammy! I love it black! Your dishes are adorable and just perfect for this.
I was glad to see a post from you. Missed you, but know you are always busy. Those peppermint plates are perfect with Santa. Take care, Sally
That looks great and I love those peppermint plates and Santa!
Kammy, dahling...you are here. Glad to see you.
The little changes make all the difference. ;-)
What a difference a little paint makes. I love the effect, and the plates and little santa are adorable.
Blessings,

Well that's a really great update, and the Santa goes perfectly with it. Great job!

Now you can do another met. when you filled them with Christmas cookies! :) So cute!
Your plate holder is darling, especially with your pretty plates.
Oh so cute, Kammy! How did people manage before spray paint? I scrolled down and read your Zorro story...funny! My granddog Paco, a chihuahua, was brought up with cats and thinks he is one...bathes himself by licking his paws even! lol Happy week!...Debbie
So cute !! Cant wait to see more :)
Ok I love it with a coat of paint! And that Santa is ADORABLE!
Yes, ORB covers a multitude of sins :o) Love those plates...I'm hoping to find something similar this week as I brave the crowds of holiday shoppers.
Feel free to link up to my 'Make it for Monday' party if you'd like.
peace.
The tree plate holder is so cute with the red and white plates and Santa, Kammy. Go shopping and maybe I'll see you there! LOL!...Christine
Way to revive that plate stand. I love the red and white plates, it made it adorble (plus the black paint job, you can never go wrong with black).
I love the plates you used! They would go great with my candy themed christmas!
I was getting worried about you! Long time no post!
Spray paint..did I hear spray paint?? LOL
Very cute!
It looks so much better now. Great job.
Gee..I didn't think it was so bad before :) but I love it black with your plates. Isn't it awful what a wreck decorating makes the house? Hope you will join Deck the Halls on Tuesday!
What a difference. I love the peppermint plates.

Love the new color and the bright and happy peppermint candy plates!
Wow...from trash to treasure with just a little spray paint and a clever imagination! I really love how it turned out!
That is the cutes plate holder...now. I would have passed it up as gold too, but now it is perfect with your little Santa. I would love to know where you got the peppermint plates. I do a lot of decorating in Candy Canes.
It's amazing how a little paint can transform something from gaudy to gorgeous!

Hey Kammy. There's so many things with good bones but the finish is dated. This was an excellent example. I love seeing up-cycled items. Those plate and the paint color are perfect.
Hugs...Tracy
I love the peppermint plates, so bright and cheery for the season! And the black plate holder just sets the plates off perfectly!
I love the makeover ,looks very festive. I wish you a joyous start to this Christmas Season !

It's amazing what a small change can do for an item! Looks like the plates where made just for the piece! How wonderful... deedee
The magic of paint!!! It looks great, I love the plates. Thanks for sharing.
Sandy
Great makeover!!!! I love the peppermint plates!!!!
I must be very behind the times as I love the "gaudy gold" look & have lots of it, but I have to admit I've been trying to find ORB spray paint lately. None at Michaels or Home Depot here. :(
I'm going to try Wal-Mart later this week.
I have enjoyed seeing all your recent makeovers.
fondly,
Rettabug
Love the new look of the plate holder!
Cute and simple! Your plates look great on your "new" holder. :o)
Great makeover! You really gave new life to that plate holder. Good job!
Enjoy decorating!
All the best,
Eileen
I had that same plate holder and unfortunately I think I gave it away...I should have thought about painting it! It looks great paired with the candy cane plates.

Hi Kammy!
I have missed your posts... but then I haven't posted in a long timne either. I just love your blog. Hope you had a fantastic Thanksgiving. Your plate holder is just precious. Lovin' that spray paint!
Your plate holder looks great and up to date now. Love you plates. I have a plane plate holder that holds three plates but I need some christmas pates. I'll have to keep and eye out for some.
Kammy, I like the updated look of your plate rack, and the plates are super cute. . .You always manage to do magic with paint, clever girl!
Much better! Nice touch with the different dishes too! I've got my crystal and pearl tree up and decorated. Stop by and take a look!
