I wanted to share some of my holiday decorations from this year with all of you.
Here is an "up close" view of a section of our Santa's Best Christmas Tree....Our Christmas Tree is always packed with ornaments ....and each and every one is special and tells a part of our story together over the years!
Our fireplace mantle is "just" big enough to hang all of our stockings, including the ones we had specially made for our dogs, cats, birds and bunnies!
A sampling of our Byers Carolers collection, with our Irish ornaments on the small tree behind them!
These are some of the vintage reproductions that Mr. Christmas did for us this year, based on my originals from the 1950's and '60's. Many of you who purchased these have said you really like them too!
My original vintage Three Kings figurines. I found these and gave them as a gift to my late brother, Matt. He adored them. They now reside with us and are proudly displayed every Christmas season.
On this section of our fireplace mantel, I've displayed the Mr.Christmas reproduction Choir Boys (they can be ornaments or standing figurines), and they are grouped in front of my mother's Antony and Cleopatra statues from the 1950's. The little girl in the red Christmas hat is also vintage.
This is a rare "lady head" holiday candy dish from the 1960's. (Usually filled with peppermints or chocolate kisses!). I love finding vintage pieces that are still intact. They are even more beautiful now than they were when they were new!
Thanks for letting me share some of my holiday decorating treasures with you! I know you have special pieces that are a wonderful part of your family's holiday traditions as well. It's fun to share what we love with our special friends! Wishing you and yours all the peace and blessings of the season!
Love,
Carolyn
