Ornaments

It is a favorite holiday.  The sweetest graphics.  Cutest books.  Sparkly baubles hanging off the tree and anything else I can adorn.  I really cannot think of a reason not to like it...maybe the crowds? Each year I try to create an ornament from my yearly vintage finds.  This year was no exception. 

...but first I have to share why this is Reagan's favorite season.  A house full of warm lit trees draped in fuzzy skirts.  This is his place to be for the next month.

Last year I paired these sweet bells with vintage package toppers.  I didn't realize what a find I had in these toppers.  I haven't come across them since.

With white snowflakes as my base I used reflectors to hold a vintage taper wreath and set of bells.

Two reflectors and loads of feather tree balls.

Last year I found an entire lot of these vintage floral stakes.  The stick is easily removed and sits nicely on the snowflake base.  Some glossy millinery and a reflector flower or two.

Jingle bells and plastic holly.  Little bits of juniper for show.  This one might just be my favorite.  These always go out to family and friends.  I tuck away a few for the kids.  When they have a tree of their own I hope to arrive at their first Christmas away from home with a box full of ornaments.
