Retro Renovation stopped publishing in 2021; these stories remain for historical information, as potential continued resources, and for archival purposes.

Merry Mamie Eisenhower ChristmasHappy happy, merry merry, everyone. I have a punch list about a mile long to get ready for Christmas, so I’m clocking out and will be back with more retro escapades on Dec. 26.

    Ok, Pam!
    I will sit here waiting with bated breath until you pop up again on my little computer dazling us with all things retro.
    Merry Christmas and may all your bubble lights burn brightly.

    I want to add my good wishes as well! Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Everything to all!

    It has been so nice spending cyber-time with so many people who share a love of the old and quirky!

    PS — do any of you get Reminisce magazine? The parent company produced a book — which I bought — full of people’s stories and photos of Christmases past. Some truly hilarious pictures, mainly from the 40s through the 60s. Goofy trees, dorky haircuts, miserable kids with Santa…… super fun!

    Anyway, off to make cookies!

    Enjoy the season!

    Merry Christmas Pam, and to all the Retro Renovators out there! Enjoy, and I hope the Retro Santa is good to all of you, and leaves his retro coal at home!

    Merry Christmas, Pam! You totally changed our life this last year, and I can’t imagine we’re alone!
