A Few More Thrifted Vintage Christmas Treasures to Share

 


Hi Friends,

This week, I'm slowly getting my Christmas tubs out of the crawl space, to pack the Christmas table linens, wrapping paper, plate and glasses, items like that.

I generally wait a week after New Years to pack up all of the rest of Christmas décor and transition into January-Winter décor.

*****

 Today, I realized I have a few vignettes in my Family- room/Den, that I notice I have not shown you all.

*****

This vignette is in a corner of the Den near a window a little bit of a angel hair fern hangs. 

As you can see, I just added some greenery red berries, one of my Santa's a few Christmas tree pewter molds, mercury glass bead picks to the vintage bottle grouping and I love adding strips of fabric to the bottles, lastly a very cute ceramic candle from Step-son, back in the 80's. 

(to the décor that live here most of the time-so-to-speak.) 


 Same corner of the Den see the fern and my Fall blooming Christmas Cactus

- a thrifted wooden seed box from a couple of years ago I added greenery, red berries, Santa tin, a few more mercury glass bead picks sticking out of the thrifted oil can, and two of the vintage bottle brush trees I thrifted in July.


Over on the Red Shelves

A few more mercury glass bead picks (I only have about 15-16 picks so I spread them out this season), added another vintage Santa, greenery, red berries, the caroler was a thrift find last year 2021.

Vintage Wooden Ornaments Collection - Setting up the White Tree

 Hi Friends,

Today, I felt the need to set up the white tree I thrifted back in the early 80's, that I normally decorate with my tiny vintage wooden ornaments.

Remember on Fridays haul, I found so many wooden ornaments I just had to get the tree set-up.


*****
all the wooden ornaments I thrifted on Friday look great in this vignette.


These added wooden ornament are quite a bit larger that (I thrifted in a grab bag on Friday) than the ornaments I have collected over the years. I think they look great at the base of the white tree though.

Next year, I may add the larger ornament to my Island of 'Misfit Toy Vignette I display every year.

*****

A few 'Singing Angels' are also from a thrifted grab bag last Friday.


I hope I gave you some inspiration and a few ideas of how to use wooden ornaments you find thrifting at a reasonable price.
Grab bags are a great way to purchase small Christmas items to add to your vintage Christmas décor.

Hey! I'm on a roll so please check back for a few more Christmas vignettes.

May God Bless You and Your Family, I'm Vicki a Colorado-Junkett
