Update: 12/7 — Congratulations to Heather, winner of the wreath. Her number came up! Thanks, all, for playing! ENTRIES NOW CLOSED.
It’s time for our most awaited giveaway of the year — a chance to win one of Georgia Peachez’ gorgeous vintage Christmas ornament wreaths — complete with vintage kneehugger elf made to order just for me — to give away to one of you! 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! Read on for the rules to enter — and note, you can enter here daily now through Monday, Dec. 4.
As far as I know, Georgia Peachez aka Suzy was the first one to make and sell these wreaths starting about 10 years ago. She started a phenom! In the last few years, Suzy has also 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 and in her online shop. Bottom line, we just adore this artist and all she does!
How to enter to win this vintage ornament wreath made by GeorgiaPeachez:
- To win, you must be a subscriber to our newsletter (Yes, this is “what’s in it for the blog” — you can opt out at any time after the contest ends, or continue on for the stories and other, occasional giveaways.)
- 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.
- You can enter once per day now through Monday, Dec. 4, 2017, when entries close. (You only need to subscribe to the newsletter once, though!)
- U.S. lower 48 states only. (These limits are in place because shipping (and customs internationally) gets prohibitively expensive in particular considering the fragility of this product and how carefully it must be wrapped.)
- Repeate: Entries close on Monday, Dec. 4, 2017, around 5 p.m. Eastern — that is, Iwill close the Comments field at that time.
- Prize: There will be one winner. The winner will receive the vintage ornament wreath pictured above, made by the GeorgiaPeachez, mailed to you by Georgia Peachez.
- Pam will choose the winners via the Random Number Generator at random.org. I will check if the ‘winner’ is a newsletter subscriber. 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. Note, I ‘clean up’ all the comments before choosing. That is, if someone A replies to another’s comment within the same day that someone A entered, I take out A’s comment.
- Terms of use apply.
Many thanks to the fabulous GeorgiaPeachez!

Love that wreath!!
Kat says
I’m sort of keen to try making one of these wreaths myself, but I’d sooo much rather win one! Either way, Merry Christmas!
Jenny says
Since I got a ukulele last year, playing and singing holiday tunes has become a big fave. You should hear Christmas Island on this thing!

Field Report #004:
I’d been under cover as a Santa in this department store for the better part of week now. Yeah, yeah, I know it’s still a week before Thanksgiving. And I know it’s wrong to go full D-Day Christmas cheer before T-Day. But the Ruskies are on the move again. And they don’t even have a Thanksgiving to tell them when to start with the merry-merries. And the only thing we know for sure is that our agent is going to try to pass the info off to the Santa in Goldblatt’s sometime between now and sugarplum fairy day.
So here I sit. Or rather, I am where every runny-nosed kid in the tri-state area sits. And they no longer want dollies or footballs. No, it’s Sputniks or ray guns or an official Red Ryder, carbine action, two-hundred shot range model air rifle for these kids. I try to tell them, “You’ll shoot eye out.” But they’re too juiced up on Ovaltine to listen to their elders. Kids today.
End of Field Report #004.

Family and friends, sparkling lights, good food, Christmas movies!
Ann says
I love the lights everywhere
On the tree
On houses
Candlelight
Electric lights
White lights
Colored lights
Big bulbs
Little bulbs
And their reflection on the surfaces around them

Work friend said Christmas didn’t begin for him until he heard Jose’s “Felice Navidad” “Ah-Hah!”

Love it, want it, win it!
