Thrifty Christmas

The past week has been full of lovely vintage Christmas decorations.  So lovely in fact that I have decided I'm going to keep it all for my house!  That's right, I'm hoarding the goods!  At least for now... :)

 
These items were so squished into one little bag that I didn't really know at first what I was getting.  All I saw was one little elf face, so imagine my little freak out when I saw all of this as I attempted to pull apart the clump.  All this awesomeness in one little bag!  Shut up!



I've seen these Walking Santa's before, but they were generally yucky.  This one looks like it wasn't even used.  Are they supposed to sing songs?  Maybe that's why this one is in good shape, it doesn't sing, just rings his bell.  He is sitting on a beautiful vintage table cloth.  I love the colors!

This little angel is practically untouched.  She looks great on my tree.  I think I will use it this year, then sell it for next year so that our tree looks a little different from year to year.  I love how I can change things around now and not feel bad about wasting money!

He has shifty eyes and may be a little drunk! ; )













The Little Dude comes home in a few days, and I'm so excited!  It has been a productive week around the house and at the booth, but I would take cuddling with him over productivity any day.  I'm joining the parties at Apron Thrift GirlSir Thrift A Lot, and A Living Space.  Have a great week everyone!!!

  2. I would have a very hard time selling any of those items too! Santa looks like he may have been enjoying the same Pomegranate Champagne Cocktails that Sister & I had this weekend!

  4. I love that Santa! We have an old one in our family that we refer to (with love, of course...) as "Evil Santa." Kind of reminds me of yours... ;)
