I'm Dreaming of a Vintage Christmas...............
Just like the ones I used to know.....
Ah, look at this angel I bought Friday. She was in a local "junk" shoppe. I have looked at her every time I've been in that store for months. Friday, I decided to buy her, and what a nice surprise when the gentleman at the counter said "she's half-off today."
I also couldn't resist these old white reindeer -- so shabby sweet! And the vintage silver tinsel! You can also see the little elves on the left, and legs to a Santa "pick" I bought too!
These lights aren't exactly intact on the inside, but I loved the faded image on the front of the box!
These old mica houses are so charming, especially the ones in pink!
And a pink bottle brush tree to go with it.....
One can never have too many shabby ornaments, can they?
Some blue Christmas picks, and this sweet little angel bell -- on the back it says "In Swedish We Say Merry Christmas." So I assume the words on front mean Merry Christmas!! Too cute!!
Are you having a nice weekend? I AM!! :)

Im so jelous of all your vintage christmas decorations, they are so pretty! I had a fairy just like that on the top of my christmas tree when I was a little girl. Jennifer.
What gorgeous Vintage Christmas decorations you have there. It was your lucky day to get the angel for half price. All so sweet and shabby.

all gorgeous, I remember the reindeer, my Granny had them! The angel was obviously waiting for you:)
What great finds! (And half-off on that sweet angel!-congratulations is in order!!)

What a special angel!! Obviously your patience paid off. I have some of those ornaments from auctions we have gone to, . I have noticed the things we could get for a dollar a lot are starting go a lttle higher now that Christmas is getting into people's minds.
You find the nicest pretties!
Take care.

Great finds Becca! All I've been seeing is literally junkie Christmas items! Guess that's kinda good cause where will i put anymore! Going to do the family room for the holidays tody and start the kitchen on Tuesday! Boy do I have my work cut out for me!!! later, Lori
Beautiful finds! I think the white reindeer are my favorite of all.
These sure do bring back memories! I used to have some little white reindeer similar to these you have. I adore your little angel and am thrilled she was half off for you. :o) Everything is lovely. I'm so happy that some of the stores are selling reproduction vintage ornaments. I was at Michael's craft store recently and there were a lot of replicas in there. I hope to purchase some soon. Blessings!
Love all the beautiful vintage ornaments. I especially like your pink bottle brush tree, and the angel is too sweet. Linda
Super finds! I fell absolutely crazy in love with the reindeer! Not only are they gorgeous, but really trendy too (animal décor is IN this Christmas, they tell me :-)
Wow such pretty vitage Decorations. Mary
It all looks so very nice...I remember many a Christmas with these types of ornaments...wish I had some of them!
Have a great day!
I actually put an old box lid in my cart at Salvation Army last week because it has this cute little retro picture and says "Cinderella of Boston". I got it free - YAY. Though I haven't found nearly as many pretty old ornaments as you have. Blessings... Polly
Wow! What a wonderful lot of vintage Christmas items! You hit the jackpot!
Penny
Just love vintage ornaments. Their colors are perfect!
Becca...where do you find this stuff! Not here in So. Calif that's for sure...
Priscilla
Hi Becca; thanks for showing us all your pretty decorations...
Pl/come by "My house in the roses"
Love,
Cielo
Goodness! What a haul! I love OLD Christmas stuff especially :)
I love all of it! I actually have most of it myself! I don't have the angel you just purchased or the angel bell, but I have the other things. It is so nice to meet someone who loves the same things! Sometimes people just don't get it when I lunge for one of the old vintage items....but man, they talk to me and I just have to get them! I am really cheap though, and only buy at great prices. Do you have any strands of glass beads? I love them, they are sooooo pretty!
Hugs! Sharon
Pretty Christmas stuff, the fairy is especially gorgeous. Love it all.
I love all your vintage pretties, and I was surprised to see that we both have the same Noma light box...except there were no lights in the box I found!!
You have such a great eye!!
Linda
Old mica houses are my favorites! I love your sweet Thanksgiving cards and mussies too.
Everything is great! My favorites are the little mica houses and the reindeer! Cute!

All beautiful keepsakes. My grandsons and I found some vintage reindeer four years ago. The boys loved them and one day they will be theirs. Thank you for sharing all these beautiful decorations.
