My Thrift Store Addiction : vintage Christmas decor

Happy Monday, Friends! Today I'm participating in the Bloggers' Best Holiday Home Tours hosted by sweet Kelly from The Tattered Pew. Every day this week, different bloggers will be opening their homes to share their holiday decor and inspiration, so come on in...

If you hopped over after visiting Kim from Cottage in the Mitten, I know you enjoyed her charming old fashioned Christmas tour! I want to welcome you to my Texas home decked out for the holidays with my vintage favorites. This year, I showcased my vintage ornament collection by crafting this Christmas tree wall display.

Remember the lacy basket I hung over my mantel earlier this fall? For the holidays, I filled it with greenery and mercury glass trees and candle holders. I'm loving the added sparkle!

My Christmas tree decorations are inspired by one of my favorite books, The Secret Garden.

Stay tuned--I'll be featuring it in more detail soon!

Here's a view of the living room.

I dressed up my vintage book Christmas tree with velvet ribbon and lights this holiday season.

This little chickadee flew over to the sofa table to frolic under a trio of snowy trees!

My nativity set is a cherished heirloom. When my mother was a little girl, she gave my grandmother a piece each year for Christmas. My grandmother handed it down to my mother, who in turn passed it on to me.

I proudly display it every year. I'm featuring it on my mantel this season and will be sharing a more detailed post about it next month.

Here's a sneak peek at the Enchanted Forest themed tablescape I'll be featuring next week!

On the opposite side of the table, I created a festive patch of assorted handmade and clearance mushrooms. See my tutorial for crafting velvet mushrooms, here!

That brings us to a readers' favorite--my thrifted vintage transferware collection plate wall.

My ugly duckling vintage dresser-turned-buffet is one of my favorite thrift store transformations.

Last year during the holiday clearance sales, I bought several of the light-up houses at Hobby Lobby.

I added to my bargain collection after the Easter and fall seasonal sales creating an entire magical village for a fraction of the cost!

During the early Black Friday sales, I found a great deal on this blush pink velvet bedding from the Better Homes & Gardens line at Walmart. It is gorgeous and so soft!
