    Vintage ornament wreath by Georgia Peachez for Retro Renovation copyrighted imageUpdate: The contest is over, the Random was spun, winner Sylvia was contacted, and she promptly responded. So the wreath is on its way to her. Congratulations, Sylvia. And thanks to everyone who participated and for all your wonderful greetings. Happy Holidays, everyone, and thank you for a wonderful year. ‘Tis the season for giving, and to celebrate, I engaged Suzy aka Georgia Peachez to make one of her holiday wreaths created from vintage Christmas ornaments that I could give away in a special end-of-year contest on the blog. She pulled out her shiniest Shiny Brites — and I asked for a sparkly elf, which she dug out of her treasure chest just for us. How do you enter? Read on –>

    The rules:

    • Well, as I said, ’tis the season for giving, so with this giveaway/gift, I simply want to celebrate and encourage the many good things that people are doing to help those less fortunate or in need. I don’t think that broadcasting specific good deeds, organizations or activities is necessary. So to enter to win (1) just keep spreading the love and (2) Comment sharing your season greeting.
    • Note: First-time comments are held for moderation; you will not see your comment until I get in there to moderate.
    • Contest closes on Monday morningish, Dec. 19. I will then choose a winner by Random Number Generator.
    • You must reply to my email within 7 days. Make sure your email is correct.
    • U.S. only due to customs issues, which make it difficult to ship cross-border.
    Thank you, Suzy, for the lovely wreath, and thank you all for participating.

      Season’s Greetings to all! Just recently discovered this site and, as a rank beginner at renovation, am very grateful. I’m looking forward to your wonderful resources in helping to guide me in bringing my 1961 ranch up to its more glorious beginnings.

      Your contest wreath is fabulous. Hope whoever wins it enjoys it greatly. Kudos to the creator & blessings on the gifter!

      Thanks to all.

    24. Jana (Berniecat58) says:

      Here’s my Christmas pitch,
      For houses filled with vintage holiday kitch!
      Christmas time is here, a time of joy and cheer
      Especially for those who sell potato chips and beer!
      Joy and expectation shine from all the girls and boys,
      But happier by far are those who manufacture toys!
      The stores are filled with shoppers who buy anything they see
      While shoplifters and pickpockets have their own Christmas spree!
      K-Mart, Sears, Montgomery Ward
      All start back in October,
      To make us wish whole heartedly,
      That Christmas soon is over!

      Seriously, folks… Happy holidays to all and a safe, healthy and happy new year!

      I have many ornaments like these, but would never think to make a wreath. I am not sure my husband would want me to as he loves the vintage ornaments the best.
