Morning! I had wanted to post this a couple of weeks ago but with Megs room being such a big job it got pushed aside. I had been showing John all the lovely plate racks in my J.D.Arc magazines .....saying how much I loved them(hint,hint) and doesn't he come home from the shop one day with one in hand for me.....do I love my husband...oh yeah!!! He made it from antique lumber & stained it to match the island,he says he won't make anymore cause it took more time to make than a harvest table!!! Anyway, my next post will be Meg's room....it looks amazing,but don't forget..its her taste not mine :) Till then enjoy your day and as always thanks for coming by! ~Chrissy~

It is so beautiful, you have styled it just right!
My husband made one for me and I just love it...it changes all the time, depending on what treasures come through the door ;)

I love your husband...he does such amazing work!
This might be the best thing yet - I LOVE how you have everything displayed. But that's your specialty! :)
Think of all the possibilities how you can change it with new things you find or with the seasons....
GORGEOUS.
Wow, what an awesome job he did. I've been wanting a plate rack for some time now and been hunting high and low for one, but still haven't found one. I used to see them all the time, but now they are becoming as scarce as mannequins?
Oh what a treasure. I love it and you have it displayed so beautifully. Hugs, Marty
Chrissy

Hello sweet lady...
Ohhh...I am in love with your new plate rack...and your sweet honey! Hehe! Okay, just kidding but seriously, your honey is such a talented man and wasn't that just the sweetest? To surprise you with a new plate rack!!! I'm so happy for you, my friend! It's gorgeous and of course, you have accessorized it...as only you could do!!! I think your beautiful plate rack and pretties should be in the Joan d'arc magazine!!! Thank you for sharing it with us today, Darlin'!!!
Warmest wishes,
Chari @Happy To Design
everything you do has a little magic tied to it!
sweet and inspiring ...
I have old church hymnal racks that i love for plates ...
How beautiful. I have a plate rack almost the same and I have not liked the way it looked with just plates, thank you for the inspiration to do more.
Love the plate rack, and the paper behind the rack. I have used this paper in my home and just love, my last attempt was in my Library ceiling......it turned out wonderful. Have a great week. HUGS MARY
STUNNNG! What a sweet sweet husband! Don't we just love a talented and handy husband? Mine is too and can do most things I ask of him....he is fixing to cover my deck and I am SO excited!
Beautiful post and can't wait to see the bedroom you just finished!
Lou Cinda :)
Beautiful piece and I love how you have your treasures displayed on it!!
I have one of "those" hubbys too and I am thrilled when he makes me something. He can make absolutely anything and I am so blessed!!
Hugs~
Ooh, I love it and I also like the vingettes. He did a wonderful job.

Hey Chrissy! I'm always shocked at how long it takes for the JDL mag to reach you, but I'm glad it finally arrived. They obviously give you some great inspiration if you can get your hubby to make you something so fabulous based on what you saw in the mags!!! I LOVE it! The whole display looks so lovely...you've outdone yourself!!!
Have a great week ~

What a beauty and all your goodies look right at home inside it. I always admire these racks in the magazine also.

It is beautiful and so special because he made it for you. You are a lucky lady!
I hope all is well with you.
your husband did a splendid job on the rack. and it's so special, because of wanting to surprise you. i love it. Bestest,Denise
That is beautiful! I wish my hubby was even half that talented. I love the way that you decorated it, incorporating the old books and tags with numbers. Perfect!
Wow!! Your hubby is a keeper for sure. It is gorgeous!! I love the way you've mixed things up instead of just using plates.. Congrats to Jess!!! Keeping fingers crossed..hugs ~lynne~
Absolutely gorgeous - I can't believe that your husband made it - want to do a husband swap? xxx
You're a lucky girl to have such a talented husband. I was shocked mine said he was going to read my magazine but then fell asleep. How could he have fallen asleep reading it??? I tell ya, but at least it was a step in the right direction!
maybe a shelf is in my future too!

ps..thanks for letting me know you sent my lovely gift!
Hi, how are you? :) Your shelf looks GREAT!! How sweet of your husband to think of what makes you smile! I have an old vintage one I am painting & putting up later this week.. I'm excited, but nervous to work on it. I like how you added the faded vintage book~ sweet idea! Take care & have a great weekend!!
xo, Lara
Ahhh...how sweet is he...it looks amazing!
