Christmas Dinner Table Scape

Hi Friends,

The table is set for dinner

 The tablecloth was a yard sale find and is actually for a round table, I had seven years ago.

 I love the tablecloth so much I just made a few tucks, so it fits this rectangle table.

The  cute place mats were a thrift find from my local thrift store a couple of years ago,

the super cute green holly leaf napkins, my Mother made for me one Christmas past. 

Because the table cloth is so busy, I don't always do a center piece, for Christmas. 

 I'm using a Little Red Truck, S/P shaker I'm not sure where I found this cute pair.  

The Santa S/P set I found at The Dollar Tree Store a few years ago, I mainly use the S/P cuties as décor.

The Santa napkin rings was a thrifted yard sale find, I believe last summer, there were six in the box.

I do like eating by candle light on Special Occasions, (the grandkids like it too)

My table scape is very simple (remember, I have grandkids at my home for Christmas)

Thank you so much for stopping by......

May God Bless You this Christmas Season.

Vintage Farmhouse Home Décor Haul

 

Hi friends,

Today I was finishing up my Christmas shopping and thought I would hit up a vintage/antique thrift store. They were having all Christmas items half off, I just couldn't find any vintage looking Christmas items that caught my eye.

I did find a few things vintage home décor piece though. 

The hen and rooster s/p were cute they both had a chip at base but, I'm keeping them for décor, so it's not a big deal to me.

I really don't need another cookie cutter, but I don't have any with the wooden green handles, so I bought them will probably use them in my spring décor. 

I bought the grater because I saw a you-tuber, I follow use graters to hold dish towel or dollies, so I'm adding this grater to my kitchen décor.

Thank you for checking in to see what project I'm working on.

My God Bless you and your family.

A Vintage Christmas Thrift Store Haul

I've been watching a lot of home decorators on you tube, lately and all the

awesome DYI's, these very crafty people have come up with using thrifted items.

This weekend I shopped my 3 local thrift stores.  Here is what I found and how I display some of the items.

I found this bag of miscellaneous Christmas balls for $1.50

I added the bag of vintage Christmas balls to

my Formosas cigar box. 

This cute little Santa I paid $3.00 

 I  combined a thrifted  wicker sleigh I painted, white using chalk paint add a little bag to hold presents, a little white foo-velveteen deer ornament to make this vignette.

                                                                                         

I was so surprised to find these Christmas tree tart cups for $.25

I will use them in my trier tray I think.

I found these nicely painted bells with snowmen on them, I kind of feel sad to rust these out.  I've been collecting larger bells the past couple of years to add the rustic feel throughout my Christmas décor.  I follow a you-tube that has a tutorial to rust them so I'm trying the formula out to see if I can rust them up.  This will be a later post.

Thrifting is one of my favorite things to do, it is so much fun to find such treasure.

Thank you for checking in to see what I'm working on

My God Bless you and your family.

Christmas Tradition - #4 Vintage Christmas Cards

 Hi friends,

Today's project is getting my Christmas card list out 

As you know I like to thrift, so many of my Christmas card are either end of season sale or thrifted through out the year. 

Cards I have already received so far this season

I need to get the 'Red Sparkle Ribbon' with the cute 'Ginger Breadmen clips' hung up.

Over the years I've slowly misplaced these cute 'Ginger Breadmen Clips' and this year I found this cute felt 'Christmas Tree Clips', I believe at 'The Dollar Tree Store'

This is where I placed the Christmas Card - 'Red Sparkly Ribbon' on a wall that separates the kitchen and entry room.

 

Now I can place the Christmas cards I have been receiving this Christmas Season on this festive 'Red Christmas Sparkly Ribbon'.

I'm loving the new felt Christmas tree clips I have added to the 'Red Sparkle Ribbon' 

To display my Christmas Cards that I have received from my family and friends, this season.

Thank you so much for stopping by to check out.....

Until the next post....  Christmas Tradition - #5

May God Bless You and Your Family, during this
