Getting Fresh with Vintage Ornaments

 

We hauled out the boxes,

lights and such gear.

Fresh from the attic,

 not touched since last year.

 

And each time with pride, 

I am quite tickled

 with what's inside!

 

 

 

 

My old tree from my youth

Not too tall.

Not too small.

 

But covered in vintage

and really, that's all!

 

Each year I find more

and I think "did I buy this before?" 

 

So you see, my talk

about vintage is tried and true.

I really do walk the walk...

And my favorite color is pink

and not blue!

Linking to Pink Saturday!

We do not have our porch

ready yet so this is it this weekend...

 

Pink Saturday BLOG SHOP

Be sure to check out my last post

to see my latest "eye candy" listings like
the shabby ornaments
in the above picture.

There's also a Victorian feather fan,
a French phone,
and Victorian shave mug,
 like the one shown above.

I think they are some of the prettiest

vintage goodies I've listed 
on Bella Rosa Antiques this year!

 

Enjoy the day,

Jillian

Vintage Things Make Great Gifts! Check Out My Just Listed Finds

Some people are harder

to buy for than others.

Sometimes the answer

lies in finding

what makes their

heart go pitter patter.

 

I for one, love vintage postcards.

The kitty cats are purrrrrfect!

No one has ever bought

some for me as a gift.

I wish they had!

 What a neat stocking stuffer!

 A beautiful Paragon teacup

and saucer for the tea

partier! I know of

a couple of them already!

Aurora Borealis

cyrstal drop earrings...

Beautifully "flowing" cobalt trimmed

cup and saucer. Nice early set!

 A collection of Thomas Pacconi glass

Christmas ornaments in the

Nutcracker theme.

 

Have a little ballerina in your life?

This will steal her heart!

 

There are six all together

in this listing.

This set of four

vintage "Violets" themed

postcards are two RAPHAEL

TUCK'S cards. In great condition,

great for the collector!

A beautiful, holiday inspired
brooch made in
Czechoslovakia.
I'm sure it was made
using the lovely
crystals from the
Czech region.
 

There were several more things I listed

but they sold before I could post this.

 

Check them out with the

rest of my listings, here.

 

Enjoy your Friday!

While I'm thinking

sugar plums and

eye candy!

 

I usually drag out the

decorations from the attic

a week after Thanksgiving.

 

This year I may have

to break my rule.

Too many ideas

on Pinterest.

(That's where I found

these great displays!)

 

How about you?

When do you start

decorating?

 

Building Memories

This week I decided to do something

special with my sweet girl.

 

We went to Build A Bear Workshop.

 

What color bear did she pick out?

A PINK one!

First up, putting the squishy

and soft insides in.

Bebe helped by pressing the

foot pedal.

 

Then, a soft satin heart

kissed with lots of love,

to place inside!

Then it was time to give

her new bear a bath.

So cute!

 An outfit was chosen.

Frilly and pink,

what else?

 

What a happy little girl

Bebe was!

So excited to bring her new bear home.

 

She was given a birth certificate

with her new name:

 

"Pretty Pink Bear"

 

My little one is quite literal, I see!

 

Calls things as she sees 'em!

 

A great afternoon

and a new lovable, huggable,

snuggly friend.

 

In PINK.

 

Of course I'm sharing her

with Pink Saturday this week!

A big, huge, Teddy Bear 
hug for Beverly...
Thank you for
featuring my blog today!

 

Enjoy the day...
