They’re back — the cute little ceramic reindeer ornaments great for your vintage ornament wreaths! Get the pair for $10 at Target. Thanks, Laura Jean, for this great tip!
UPDATE 10/16: Looks like we gave ’em the Retro Renovation bump and they’re sold out already online. My tip: Head to the store. That’s where I found mine last year!

Oh no, not more Christmas ornaments! I have several of those deer, I got them for my daughter’s pink small tree for her bedroom. Now she’s 10 and not into pink anymore, so I have to buy aqua ornaments for her now. But she LOVES those little deer. I have a collection of vintage flocked plastic deer, of all different sizes. It’s fun to mix the weirdly huge one with the smaller ones.

Thanks for letting us know the reindeer were available this year. My BFF got me 2 last year, I just ordered 4 more. They are the cutest little deer I’ve ever seen!

You’re welcome. Ive been a reader of your blog for a few years (never commented) and remembered the frenzy last year over the reindeer (that I missed out on) so I just randomly checked Target the other day and there they were and I knew I just had to pass the tip onto this website and all your fabulous readers. 🙂

OH! I spy 6″ spike-y starburst glitter ornaments in several colors too. And some 4″ blue glass ornaments wrapped in jute, like fishing floats… for that tiki look. Thanks for the tip!
Pam Kueber says
Hmmm, I might need to acquire a few of those 4″ blueish mercury glass balls for the Mahalo Lounge — thank you for the tip! https://www.target.com/p/2ct-glass-ball-with-jute-christmas-ornament-blue-wondershop-153/-/A-53653593

Maybe it’s just Target’s photo….but that orb looks just like a peering alien that has evolved to be just The Eye, with a jute exoskeleton.

You are a doll! I missed last year, too. Just put in my order. Crazy prices on ebay.

Thank you!

Target also has small replica reindeer ornaments like the sawdust decorations from the 60’s. Search reindeer ornaments a tourquoise and red set is the first one on the list. Also helps that they have little polka dots.
Barbara says
Last year I missed out. NOT THIS YEAR!
I just ordered my reindeers.
THANKS SO MUCH PAMELA!!
p.s. I’m giving them away as gifts.

When I look at vintage “Made in Japan/Taiwan”, it brings a smile to my face when I see the Asian-tilted eyes on the faces. But THE funniest thing I’ve EVER seen was a dinnerware set from probably late ’90’s of “The 12 Days of Christmas” – 4 COLLIE birds.
