Yes. This one broke too. Long story. New link posted above! All entries so far count.
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!

Thanks again for the inspiration! I’m going to branch out with my Shiny Brites & try center pieces this year!

My favorite part of the holidays is seeing the joy in my daughters face when the house is all done up with twinkle lights and shiny brights.

What’s not to love about the holidays? I guess, though, I would say that I’m really looking forward this holiday season to getting out last year’s gift…an authentic 1960s aluminum tree with color wheel!

One of my favorite parts of the holidays is unpacking my vintage ornaments and hanging them. Each one is special.

Hello,
Fingers crossed! I love preparing for the holidays, decorating, cooking and baking…practicing carols with the neighbors, we sing carol one evening for the neighborhood.

Christmas is memories. Christmas Eve at my grandma’s house was the very best night of every year growing up. Making new memories with my nieces when they were little, like the year my sister and I stayed up until 3 in the morning playing with their new Barbies. I now have a grand niece who will be celebrating her first Christmas. More memories in the making. Her great aunt bought her a red and green tutu for the occasion! We should all wear tutus on Christmas!

I love to decorate and “more is more” is my motto…especially vintage decorations…now that I have 3 grandchildren it is more fun than ever…I have at least two trees and hoards of ornaments vintage and new…Vermont Country catalogue has reproduction ornaments we remember from the 50s and 60s…if any body wants to check them out. Love these wreaths, they are beautiful and witty. I would be very proud to win one. thanks for posting them.

I love this wreath. It embodies what I feel about the holidays- remembering old fashioned/retro ornaments and decorations that family and family friends used to decorate with from when I was a child.
I get a warm, cozy feeling when I think of the holidays and spending time with my family watching “A White Christmas” and driving through the neighborhood to see the lights.

I love getting together with family on Christmas Eve to share stories of past Christmas memories and open presents from each other – then get together again on Christmas morning for breakfast and a visit from Santa. I love that he still visits after all these years… 🙂
