Vintage Thingies Thursday - Vintage Christmas

I'm participating in Vintage Thingies Thursday again, hosted by Colorado Lady. Go visit and see who else is posting their vintage thingies.

I thought I'd show you some of my vintage Christmas decorations that I finally got put out.

I will probably add more decorations later, but so far my tree has all vintage ornaments on it, I'm even thinking about adding icicles. . . remember those! When I was a child, I loved my Aunt Gracie's Christmas tree. She had each icicle placed perfectly. It was beautiful!











Here is my wreath I made a few years ago. I just tied old ornaments on a pine wreath, it was very easy to make.


And I love my vintage Christmas aprons!




Here is my coffee table with my mom's old Santa hat surrounded by a few vintage Christmas pieces. I wrote a short story about my mom's hat and it was published this year in the book Christmas Traditions. The little Santa candle is only around 21 years old, but I'm attached to the battered up candle , because my youngest son used to carry it around everywhere when he was little. Notice how beat up it is.


And here is my Santa cookie jar surrounded by my old set of Christmas glasses.


Hope you enjoyed seeing some of my vintage Christmas items. The cookie jar has cookies in it, but they aren't vintage, they don't last that long around our house :)
