Vintage Christmas Happiness

There is no greater pleasure in my life ( material wise ) than Christmas.  Especially vintage Christmas anything.  I live and breath this time of year when I have an excuse to bring all my treasures out like an insane hoarder and get away with the display.   There is something special about each ormament and decoration that I find.  The stories they whisper to me of Christmastimes past fills my heart with utter joy.

Enough of my blather.. onto the picture intense postie..
The outside... darling hubby next to worlds most hideous contraption. ( I am not a fan of blow ups but he likes it so it stays )

    Sarah this is FAB! Girl you are the vintage queen....I am jealousy! I love this and not just the vintage Christmas but all the vintage treasures I am spotting. Like the cats hanging on the wall in picture number 4. The colander garland idea is perfect! And I think your right that Christmas stand belongs in your Christmas mayhem...ok I’ll send it your way if you send me Mishka Clause, Merry Miss Molly and Bebe Kringle. I would have swapped for your hubby's blow up doll...I mean toy...but I'm sure he won't part with that beauty...lol

      I would happily swap it for the blow up globe. I've been trying to sell it the past few weeks with no nibbles at all. LOL

      Now .. I don't know how the furries would take to be mailed off for a tree stand. BeBe would have a wee heart attack I am sure, Mishka would mess the box but Miss Molly would think it was an adventure. :)
