Vintage Decor I Adore At Christmas

A rainy day here on the East Coast... so what better way to while away the hours? Decorate with vintage christmas stuff.

Today I tackled my mantle. The one from the 70's with the ugly faux barn beam. Someone, somewhere probably likes this but I know I am okay without it!

So, I cover it up with evergreen and pinecone garland...

And sparkly lights.
Then I pulled out a couple of ivory colored pottery pieces and used them for LED lighted branches... and vintage silver glass ornaments.






These old books all have to do with Christmas. I wait all year to display them!






I'm having so much fun decorating I forgot I usually list things on my site on Tuesdays...





Maybe it is okay to take a break once in awile...sharing fun Mommy time with Bebe...
(Look how serious my face is while hanging those ornaments!)


and enjoying the simple things in life! I'll be back soon with more vintage goodies!

We hung glass ornaments for the first time this year. The girls love having them all around, especially the vintage ones! So far, they haven't played with the tree! Hurrah!
