Thrifted Christmas Treasures - Decorate with Me

 Hi Friends,

Today, I'm getting out my Thrifted Christmas Treasure I've found this year and incorporate them into my vintage decorating for the Holiday season!

All year I have been picking-up jiggle bells when I see them


A year or two ago I bought a white tree for a $1.00 at 'Dollar Tree' and today I'll be incorporating the thrifted bells to adorn this white tree.


also, a couple of weeks ago I thrifted a grab bag of very small bottle brush wreaths so I'll be using them also.


cute little plastic Angel


this little wreath had two tiny brass bells and gold twine wrapped around it


Because the white tree is on the high boy in the guest room I dug out these super cute cake or muffin picks I thrifted I think 2020?


a couple more cupcake picks a plastic Santa and a paper angel. In the ironstone dish I have a frosted bell with a glass ball/dinger made in Japan




Cute little tree I think.


Thank you so much for stopping by  'My Little Colorado Cottage', I'm slowly getting out my seasonal décor, so please check back to see how my Christmas home decorations are evolving this season.

May God Bless You and Your Family this Holiday season,

Friday - Thrift Haul - on the Hunt for Vintage

Hi Friends,

I did visit my local thrift store hoping to find more Thanksgiving treasures or maybe a couple more unique pumpkins, I didn't come home with pumpkins or unique Thanksgiving pieces .....

but, I found a few more things for Christmas and I did find a few bucket list items.


I have a collection of moss rose china that was handed down to me.
Any time I find a piece I pick it up. the little covered dish/tureen had a sticker price of $10.00 - I got it for $6.00. YIPPIE!

The Peter Rabbit plate made by Wedgewood in England, I do already have a plate, saucer, cup set. I just couldn't pass it up for $3.00

The vintage salad plate had no marking, but think it might be a Homer & Laughlin piece, $.50

Cute Christmas hand towel for $.50





A very cute violin shape clear glass bottle made by Maryland Glass Company in the 50's possibly,
 I used in my November Fall décor.


*****

Craft supplies are on my list of things to look for because as you know the prices are very reasonable bag of bells $.75 each, sequins $.15 each.
red beads $.30

*****
For $1.00 I found a bag of tinsel


A box of Christmas tree coasters $1.75

     
               
a super cute velvet potpourri cone ornament $.50

 
*****
I spotted the glass handle door knobs that were in a glass case, I asked to look at the knobs and for $6.00 I thought, WOW!

after getting them home I'm not sure if there vintage not much wear-tear, but $6.00 isn't bad for a new set I don't think.

*****
Super cute bird house for $3.00, I'll be using this birdhouse outside next spring





Lastly, Who can resist a grab bag or two? 


$0.75


$1.50



Not a super big haul but found a few special pieces. 

I would like to know what item did you like? 

What are some treasures on your list to hunt for?

Thank you so much for taking a little time out of your day to check out what I have been doing here at 'My Little Colorado Cottage' 

Please check back soon, I'm hoping to start decorating for the month of December next week.

Until the next post .....

May God Bless You and Your Family,
