This adorable mini wreath is playful and lovely, displayed above a mesh-lined cabinet. The pink ribbon adds an unexpected and playful touch. Look closely and you'll notice holiday cards tied to garland and hung in the window. Now, if your guests insist on helping out in the kitchen, they'll know how happy you are that they didn't have to throw the cards in the bin.

Rachel Barrett incorporated plenty of lush greenery into her vibrant kitchen update, but rather than sticking to the classic red and green to keep the look consistent, she opted for ribbon to match her existing color scheme, as she does in every room of the house.
Add decoration

That's not it just For wood: Braid the branches around the platter and scatter a few ornaments that match the ribbon in the wreath. We also love how Rachel Barrett stacked the cake stands in this dessert nook to vary the height of the cakes, which adds visual interest and ensures that all the cakes get an equal share of the spotlight.
