These cloth peppers were a purchase at a mission gift shop near Tuscon two years ago. They were the first purchase that started the kitchen collection.

Chili Peppers
My AZ kitchen is decorated with chili peppers; several of which I have bought while we have traveled throughout the southwest. The collection got some new additions last week.
The collection started with the 'zipper sand' project on the left, a craft project I made two winters ago. While in Santa Fe I found the unique metal pepper wall hanging in the middle. Last Friday I saw the glass peppers at a very reasonable price at the Mesa Market, so they joined the collection.
The wreath of chili peppers (fake) shouted my name at the grocery store last week. It, too, found a place on the wall.
This plaster pepper wall hanging was a purchase at an apple stand while driving through the mountains in New Mexico last spring. We were so thankful to find toilets at the stand, I was most happy to look through the gift shop where I heard my name whispered and the chant: "Buy me, buy me!"

ReplyDeleteGreat blog!!!!
Love the glass chili peppers - I've just started growing real ones (I had a kit as a gift) and so far they are good. I love to cook with chili and always have some in nice bottles which look great and get used too. Great idea about retirement blog.
