That retro aluminum Christmas tree really put me in the decorating mode.
Even though I have yet to do any real shopping, bake any actual cookies or breads, start my custom Christmas cards (an annual insane tradition which entails designing, printing, trimming, glittering, and addressing 100+ cards), plan the holiday meal, prepare the home for the holiday meal, wrap any presents, or play any holiday music.
So I'm ready! Not. But I was inspired enough to put out a few more vintage touches.
Christmas-themed kitty postcards, tinsel, pink mercury glass bead garland, rhinestone brooches, buttons and jingle bell cards were in my stash and waiting to be displayed.
I only have a few of those bell cards, but have you seen Magpie Ethel's collection? Woo-ee!
One gal around here is ready, at least.
Here she is in all her vintage holiday glory.
how cute to display them on the dress form! Such cute finds!
