I know: According to authentic retro etiquette, it’s way too early to talk Christmas decorations. But if you are thinking about doing fabulous things with vintage Shiny Brite ornaments, you only have so many days left to ornie-hoard and hot-glue. Or… if you know you are never gonna get this crafty yourself — here’s your chance to win our super famous annual giveaway: A vintage Shiny Brite ornament wreath made by the the queen of Shiny Brite crafting, the talented and generous Georgia Peachez. WOOT!

Every year, as a gift to readers, I buy a wreath from Suzy aka Georgia Peachez for this giveaway. Thank you, readers, for being THE BEST. I luv you! Suzy always jumps to help out. She gave me a great price (her wreaths now sell for $250! each!) — and quick as I asked, she made this special wreath just for us. She said:

Pam, I made a wreath with my two favorite elements, a knee hugger elf and a reindeer.

Heck to the yeah, knee hugger elf and reindeer! Thank you, Suzy!

    I do not see any of the comments from November 1 – all comments here are from today only. Is this supposed to happen?

    This wreath is GREAT! It would look perfect on the door with my aluminium Christmas tree shining through the window! Hope to win it.

    My favorite part is remembering the reason for the season. But then it’s the food, fun and festivities!!

    Oh how I love vintage shiny brite ornaments! Snuggling up with my family, flocked tree covered in twinkling lights and candy colored vintage ornaments, crackling fire, and old Christmas movies…*sigh*…I can hardly wait!

    Love this wreath! I am going to look up her website. Starting December 1 (NEVER earlier!!!) I load the CD player with Christmas music and start the whole decorating/wrapping process, trying not to stress out but enjoy it like I did when I was a kid. I love getting together with family since we live far away from them.

    My childhood memories of Christmas will always be in my mind and heart. I hope the traditions we are giving to our three children from both sides of the family will carry on and help them to create some of their own.
