My apologies to those readers who are not fans of the vintage Christmas. Because yes, I found more, and of course, I'm going to show you what I got!
On our way out of Bouckville at the end of the week, we ran across several barn sales in the surrounding small towns. The yard sale prices made it that much more fun!
For example, I found all of these items while rummaging around in a big old dusty barn. The entire bag's worth cost me three dollars!
Here's what I found -- vintage foil candleholders --
A box of green mercury glass ball picks --
Gold mercury glass ball grape cluster picks --
Elves. Enough said.
Sequined red felt bird ornament.
Spun head ornament.
And, best of all, 2 strands of mercury glass bead garlands.
Next time I'll be looking for more barn sales!
Makes me wanna start decorating for Christmas!

I love vintage Christmas. Wonderful finds for such a wonderful price. I have a collection of those elves and treasure them. Will you use them yourself or put them on etsy?

JEALOUS! Finding vintage anything here for that price is near impossible. Have fun with it - and it's NEVER too early for Christmas!

I love seeing vintage Christmas stuff, no matter what time of year! Great finds, especially those elves. I know some people hate them, but I think they're beyond cute!

Not a fan of vintage Christmas?! Is there such a thing? That aqua glass garland is a find -- those fly out of my etsy shop. Great scores!!

Great haul! How can you tell that the bird and the beads are mercury glass? My Grandma has a bunch of those things, and I would like to know if that is what they are. The elves have a crazy look in their eyes....

I love love love the elves! My mom had several that sat on our tree, but sadly they are lost :( I keep an eye out for them at each yard sale I hit! Great Christmas treasures!
