I can’t seem to sync myself with the holidays this year! It feels like Halloween should have just passed and everyone should put their Christmas decorations away for a few weeks. I’m no…
Readers submitted 375 photos of their vintage Christmas decorations via last weekend’s uploader. There was so much deliciousness! It was a crazy difficult task, but I set out to choose 10 12 photos to spotlight TGIF today. AND, I put the uploader is ON again (now closed), so there are 200+ more photos to ogle. My…

The Christmas season brings joy to so many families. No house decorations would be complete with the family Christmas tree. While many new styles of trees are on the market today, nothing compares with the aluminum trees of the late 1950s. The vintage 'Aluminum Pom-Pom Tree' made by Evergleam dates back to 1959. The tree's
Well, I’m just having a party analyzing all the retro Christmas decorations that readers have uploaded. How about this one: A special slide show of all 62 73 aluminum Christmas trees. Mini, small, medium, large… Found at the Goodwill, in Aunt Bertha’s attic, or on ebay… Decorated with vintage ornaments, elves, Barbies — even pickles. Above: Steve…
The beginnings of my collection of vintage Christmas tree decorations. A great Christmas time hobby!
Wow - last Sunday I was lucky to be invited along to a special Christmas house tour. Jill invited me through her friend, Mary Ann - Thank you so much ladies! This was not open to the public, but to members of The Golden Glow, a national club of vintage Christmas collectors. People who know me or have come to my house know I love all things Christmas. This group, however, is on a whole new level! We toured 3 out of the 5 homes in NJ. Most houses had 10 tress or so and other displays - it was Christmas Heaven. Pretty, pretty pointesettia quilt. I'd love to have one of these. Look who is attending this event, it's Christopher Radko. That was a nice surprise. All of the following photos were taken at one home. I can not give you his name or location, except to say rural NJ, on 3 beautiful acres. He is also master gardener and collects vintage Easter and Halloween decorations and items. He is a serious collector, with the means to indulge. In this custom built addition he has thousands of items on display. They are all in like new condition. Ebay, anyone? On the shelf are salt and peppers, and the bottom portion is filled with vinatage boxed Christmas cards. Me (well my ponytail) and Christopher, I'm a sucker for a celebrity sighting. In the dining a lovely PINK feather tree. A collection of painted turkeys are flocked on the lower shelves. This is a real white feather tree and is covered with plastic icicles. I have some of these thanks to my friend Susan McD. Many me of them glow in the dark. A tree in the sun room - Spinning silver tree with 40's and 50's ornaments and the spinning color wheel - of course :) I hope you enjoyed this Christmas tour, I loved it!

Vintage Christmas Tree Brooch/Pin Colors: Gold, Green, Silver Size: Approx. 2 inches in length, and 1 1/2 inches in width This large vintage pin is in excellent used condition. The tree has a pretty crystal star at the top, and an engraved tree stand at the bottom. It looks even better than the photos. This lovely brooch was likely made in the 1980's or 1990's. This vintage pin can be used for your DIY project or as decoration. It will enhance any outfit or scarf without being too heavy. Great for holiday season, events and parties. Nice gift idea for a friend, daughter, aunt, mother, sister, grandparent or coworker. It will be a gift to be enjoyed for many years.
