I Have Vintage Love !

No, it's not the holidays !

I have a large Shabby Chic cabinet in my entry way
filled
with vintage 40's and 50's holiday collectibles
that
I display all year.

I love to search for them
at
the antique show in Round Top, Texas.

I am excited because the show is in two weeks !




Wish me luck !
I have not found any in the last two years.

    I have some of the very things that you have that were my mothers. I always feel funny when I see them in shop displays because I see mine every year. If you are ever in Galveston there is a shop about a block off the Strand that has a display case with quite a collection of Christmas antiques.

    It is so much more fun to shop there than to sell there. I'm glad I live too far away as it would tempt me too much.

    Your collection is right up my alley! I love this era of Christmas collectibles. So nice that you can have them on display year round - good luck at Round Top. (That's a show I dream of going to some day.)

    Thanks so much for joining in this week, Dottie.

    As a lover of all things Christmas, I could spend a heavenly weekend with my nose pressed against the windows of your Christmas cabinet. :) Lovely.

    What a wonderful cabinet of Christmas nostalgia, Dottie. (Not to date myself but a lot of those look like they date from my childhood...) Best of luck finding more treasures!
