Near the end of the Christmas Season "last-year" ~ I made a decision to sell my ViNtaGe Christmas Blue Bottle Brush Collection... I even took pictures of each and every one of the items, found a box for shipping, and planned to list the items for SaLe around this time of year on Ebay... Well let me tell you ... NO WAY!*!*! I just un-boxed these "rare-beauties" ~ THEY ARE JUST STUNNING!!! Definitely KEEPERS!!! Parting with my Vintage Pink Collection was insane enough!!! It takes years to acquire these "more-rare" finds... I've linked-up with Debra of Common Ground for her ViNtaGe InSpiRaTioN Friday... Maybe I can inspire YOU to start up a collection of something that's ViNtaGe Christmas??? - Love to SEE IT!!! Enjoy the "EyE~CaNdY"!*!*! Sorry NOT For SaLe... (click on pics to enlarge details...)
This one is My FaVoRiTe!*!*! Thick Bottle Brush Branches ~ The Old Snow is Still Nice and White... Funky 1950's
AwEsoMe!*!*!
Such Character...
"Glistening"... The branches fold-up for easy storage... Tips have mercury glass beads...
Made-In-Japan... I try and buy my trees with their Original Vintage Labels...
Mixes well with a bit of "SHaBBy-BlinG"...
This tree is more on the Aqua-Blue Color - but mixes in well with other shades of vintage blue trees...
I usually don't like to add-on an embellishment - but this one just called for the vintage rhinestone pin!!!
The wood base is a bit "ShaBBy!"
I stopped dead in my tracks when I found these amazing "vintage ornaments with blue glitter on them"... Such a PeRfeCt Go-With!*!*!
I almost let this one get away... Thank goodness the Lady "changed her mind"!!! I've had 3 blue wreaths over the years - soooo hard to come by- This one is definitely a keeper now... The snow is still nice and bright - Not Dingy...
Wonderfully ViNtaGe

Frog Husband and I are off "antiquing" TODAY!*!*! I'm hoping to Sell MORE Of My SHaBBies in a show THIS DECEMBER ~ I'll keep you posted on my side-bar... I'm on the "wait-list"...
