Update: Entries now closed. Congratulations to our winner — Leslie! Thanks, everyone, for sharing all your heartwarming memories and howdy-do’s!
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’ Vintage Christmas 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 wreaths for yourself.
As far as I 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 and all she does!
How to enter to win a vintage ornament wreath made by GeorgiaPeachez:

- To enter, use the Comment field on this post below and tell us what is your favorite part of the holiday season. Or whatever, we’re easy.

- Pam will choose the winners via the Random Number Generator at random.org. I will email the winner. [Tip: Be sure you enter your email address correctly in the email field of the Comment form.] The winner will have five business days to respond. If I do not hear from them, I will choose the next person after who commented. Lather, rinse, repeat. I will post the winner’s first name as soon as all is confirmed.

Many thanks to the fabulous GeorgiaPeachez!
And congratulations to Richard, winner of last year’s Georgia Peachez wreath giveaway.

We don’t typically do giveaways to make any money —
but to delight readers and to grow our newsletter list.

Can’t wait? Make a wreath of your own! We tell you how, starting with Georgia Peachez’ gracious tips in our famous tutorials:
Myra Horn says
The old Christmas classics by Johnny Mathis, Andy Williams, Nat King Cole, Perry Como, etc.
Sarah Rea says
I love finding new Christmas cookie recipes, baking large batches of them, then giving some to my neighbors and all the service people in my life (dog groomers, postal workers, etc)!!
Sandra L Sells says
I enjoyed the smell of pine in the air, the smells of special foods being cooked (except for my father’s LukeFisk which was STINKY), Hot Cocoa before church, my little red flannel pjs, the time my hamster got into the packages and shredded the paper for a nest, my favorite ever Ginny Doll (which I still have), my big sister being nice to me, my father just being home was a present in itself…lots of fond memories for this old girl. Plus you know? I remember shopping for these ornaments with my Mother when I was a little girl…ours were the real retro!!
Melanie Plum says
I’m pretty much disillusioned with Christmas lately….which is why i like to skip it and head to a tropical destination! 🙂
Deanna says
Christmas is definitely the best-smelling holiday of the year! And I love riding around with my dad (I’m 42, but kind of a kid!), looking at Christmas lights and counting Moravian stars hanging from porches.
Paula Smith says
Love it!!!
Marguerite D. says
I love vintage Christmas decorations.
Meg Diskin says
I love opening the first, and last, doors on the Advent calendar best.
Marilyn Nelson says
I love sitting by the fireplace, warming each side of my body until I can feel the heat seeping into my bones!
Stacie Birchett says
Family, friends, decorations, lights, goodwill – I love Christmas!
