Well my friend Marcia is doing this that she got from another blog, Anything Goes Here. It's a really cute idea, so I thought I'd give it go! It's called Vintage Christmas Monday and you post some pics with stories of Christmas's past.
Here I go...
These are a collection of ornaments I have that were my great grandmothers "gramma O". I remember her tree so vividly from when I was little. It was so bright and had tinsel and these kinds of ornaments all over it! I'm so glad to still have these around they bring back such great Christmas memories for me!
Here's an ornament I must have gotten when I was little, it says "Heather '82'" on it. I'm not too sure of the details but it's vintage none the less!
This one I remember being at my house growing up. I want to say my mom made it, but one of my grandma's could have made as well. It's handmade and so vintage looking, I loved it as a kid! It says "Bongiorno's" on top, my maiden name.
This is a christmas tree ornament I made as a kid in school. There's no date on it, but has to be 25 years old at least!
This my mom gave me. Just looking at it tells me it's probably from when she was little! I just love it!
This is another that was around my house as kid. Its Mrs. Claus. Again not sure if my mom or my great grandma made it, we were all very close. There's a Santa to match, but I'll save that one for next monday maybe....
Have a wonderful Monday everyone!
Blessings,
Heather
