Working on the *Christmas Entry Vignette*...

Each year I "pull" some items from my personal *Christmas S*T*A*S*H*, and replace them with "more recent" ViNtaGe Finds I have acquired during the past selling season...

  Here are **THREE** Over-The-Top FaB ViNtaGe FiNdS

 I'll be incorporating into this year's

 HoLiDay Entry Vignette In-Our-Home...

 Sooooo Creative!*!*!

One-Of-A-Kind... 

A mix of old & new Christmas Ornaments shaped into a Tree -

surrounded by a time~worn Frame 

on an industrial wire grill of sort...

Just AwEsoMe Find from *When Pigs Fly*

 - Whitewater, Wisconsin...

 

ViNtaGe Wooden *Merry Christmas* Sign

FaB Find!!! ~ So much more character than the picture shows...

AwEsoMe Find on EBAY, from Gloria of SHABBYTOWNUSA!!!

 

*Made-In-Wisconsin*

CARVED-OUT WOODEN *SKI LIFT SIGN*

Not Sure how old this sign is - but the weathered board,

 old screw holes, and marks on the backside,

  - show evidence of some authentic age to the piece...

******

Will make a perfect "Go-With" for a pair of

ViNtaGe SNOW SHOES I have ~ In Old-White-Paint

Perhaps I'll save this sign till January??? - If I can't fit it in!!!
