A Vintage Christmas

As we are now in the second half of November I thought it was safe to redecorate my blog!

I have also woken up the lazy Christmas Elves & have had them hard at work restocking the shelves of my Christmas Shop. I spend all year sear
ching out lovely vintage Christmas decorations to offer you at this time of year.

Of course I will be taking some to the Vintage & Handmade Fair next weekend & this Saturday I will be having a stall at the Rangeworthy Village Hall's "Winter Fair" too - this is on from 2pm - 4pm so if you are close by why not pop in & say hello?

For those of you further afield I have added some lovely Christma
ssy goodies to my online shop - Homes & Antiques magazine borrowed quite a few for a decorating feature which will appear in their next issue at the beginning of December!

There are angels....





Reproduction "feather" trees....





Baubles....


Santas....



Kitsch bunny bells....




Reindeer (of course!)




China for your festive cuppa & much more!

So why not pop along for a browse & a virtual mince pie?
Country Cottage Chic



I also want to introduce you to a very festive girl - my new mini "Ruby"
She is a cracker!

  6. Jealous of the pretty car! I adore vintage decorations, we had an angel just like the 2nd one that my mum bought when I was little.... she went bald a couple of years ago & looked a bit scary so we stopped using her! x

  11. Oh such treasures. My Grandad had two little trees like that he used to put on his mantlepiece. They were unofficially mine. You have brought a tear to my eye to be honest!

  14. Well the weather is certainly Christmassy today and maybe it's time to start thinking about digging out the decorations from the attic. I just hope the white stuff doesn't descend before Sunday.. On Monday it can snow all it likes.
    Has Ruby got snow chains?
