Update: Congratulation to Richard, the happy winner of this wreath giveaway. His number came up in the random. Thanks, everyone,for playing, and super thanks to Suzy for helping with this giveaway this year! ENTRIES NOW CLOSED.
Howdy, hudee — it’s time for our most awaited yearly giveaway on the blog: One lucky winner will win this gorgeous vintage ornament wreath, handcrafted by the Queen o’ Ornament Wreaths, the original trendsetter, the talented Suzy a.k.a. GeorgiaPeachez herself! These wreaths sell out fast in GeorgiaPeachez’s shop, so this is your chance to get one of these coveted creations for yourself. Note: What with Pam’s trip to Pittsburgh and Thanksgiving upon us, we will be taking next week off. Happy happy, everyone — see you on the 30th.
As far as we know, Georgia Peachez was the pioneer of the vintage ornament wreath, and has honed her craft to perfection. There’s nothing quite like an original GeorgiaPeachez creation!
In the last few years, she’s even started creating non-wreath vintage goodies, such as arrangements made in vintage vessels like head vases, retro toys and Christmas ceramics, as well as dioramas made using the vintage ornament boxes. You can see a lot of her adorable creations on GeorgiaPeachez’s Facebook page. Bottom line, we just luv this lady!

This year it will be putting up the aluminum tree. Every other
year we switch between a live tree and the aluminum one. There are so many things I look forward to – my Gurley characters choir, my “girls” which is a whole sidebar top of retro ceramic girls and angels. Then I have my nutcrackers and my old Santas, my gingerbread room and my Christmas tree room – a mixed lot of old and new and my snowmen in the entry hall. I love the old corsages like grandma would wear on her coat and I have some pretty funky old stockings. Wow. Reading this makes me sound like the Christmas crazy lady (closely related to the crazy cat lady)

This will be our first Christmas in our new to us home that was built in 1957. I enjoy watching my kids open their gifts. I have a toddler and a teen, and this year my 2 year old will really enjoy the lights and tree. Honestly, I love everything about Christmas!
Leslie says

Regina Ortenzi says
Seeing all the beautiful lights outside homes and communities. Especially lights on my own tree!

I love the trip down memory lane at the holiday season revisiting decorations that my dad and I made in the fifties.

I love that it is a season of light and sparkly things just when the days get their shortest and some times the chaos of life just pauses for a moment.
Tom says
Best part of the holidays is being with family and friends and celebrating our time together.
Shelly Drys says
My favorite thing about the Christmas season, besides spending it with my family, is decorating! I try to find vintage decorations and cover my home with them.
Blondie7 says
My favorite part of the holiday season is spending time with my enormous Beautiful family!!!!!!! Watching The Nativity Story, the Jesus of Nazareth film, A Charlie Brown Christmas, all Christmas classic films, all Hallmark Christmas films, listening to classic Christmas music, and reminiscing about my extraordinary 1970s childhood Christmases.
