This is the decoration on the back of my front door. Mercury picks, reflectors, glittered pinecones- all original!
My Christmas blow molds. For some reason I have not been able to find a snowman- yet- but check back next year! The pair of angels I actually bought deadstock from Sines.
I have a pair of these vintage stockings- aren't they cute?
I decorate our live tree with only vintage ornaments.
I love looking at them- I could look at these all day....
These are really huge- that blue one in the lower right is regular size!
I love bubble lights with vintage ornaments!
My aluminum tree- it's only 2 feet tall. I decorate around the bottom with vintage aluminum corsages. The tree topper I just found this year. (See my Pyrex trying to sneak into the picture?)
Some of the ornaments on the aluminum tree. I love these homemade eggshell dioramas. All of these ornaments are vintage miniature size ones.
Some of these balls are really tiny- the one in the center and the one at lower right are only about
an inch in diameter!
I actually have vintage window candles too- these have red and green bakelite bases with red cardboard tops.
Hope you had a very vintage Merry Christmas!
Love your kitchen cabinets, you have all glass, lucky!!!! I want cabinets like that!
ReplyDeleteMy babysitter when I was very little used to have a light-up snowman (I didn't know they were called blow molds...good to know!) that I just LOVED. There was also a house in our neighborhood with one that we would drive by specially just to look at it. I bet they're hard to find because no one wants to give theirs up.
ReplyDeleteI love all your decorations, but I especially enjoyed seeing the bells. My grandmother had red ones like them.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks great, as usual! I could look at all my vintage ornaments all day too. They just remind me so much of when I was little and my Grandma's tree! I am having a blomold giveaway over at Zootsuitmama...sign up!!
ReplyDeleteSweet vintage Xmas!
ReplyDeleteThis is just the way I like it. Bright and shiny!
Thank you for keeping it vintage and a very Happy New Year to you and your family; may the thrifting gods smile upon you in 2013!

Hello Susie QT! Just 'found' you over at Micks (Casablanca). I love vintage too so it will be fun to follow you along your path to vintagedom!! My cupboards are like yours and show off all the not-so-hidden Pyrex.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year and good to meet you.
You have really lovely vintage ornaments. I think they are getting more precious as time goes on and they get rarer and rarer. And glued into all those vintage ornament wreaths!
ReplyDeleteI have 2 boxes of vintage decorations that I aquired.I really enjoy those old decorations.
