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.

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 love preparing and sending our annual Christmas card. Since we bought our mid-century rambler five years ago, my partner and I have staged period-appropriate holiday photo cards that highlight different MCM elements from our home. Many friends and family say it’s their favorite card of the season, and some say they keep it up all year long! This fabulous wreath would sure look swell in an upcoming Christmas card!

    My favorite part of the holidays is making wonderful decorations, like my new (last year) Mid-Mod Putz Village! I got the patterns off Ret-Ren and we went CRAZY!!!! Love my new little village, and the gorgeous wreath would complete the look! Thanks for your great site! (I love the Time capsule houses, and “Love the house you’re in” collages, too!) You have expanded my world! XXXOOO

    What a gorgeous wreath! I Christmas but especially love pulling out the sentimental ornaments each year and the memories they invoke (of loved ones no longer with us and our children when they were young).
