More vintage Christmas loveliness has found it’s way into our house!I don’t need many more vintage decorations but fortunately my excuse is that I’ve been looking for something for my swap partner in a seasonal swap. Luckily I came across a bag of goodies when I was shopping whilst Edward had his first nursery session last week. The bag contained two vintage wise men (do you think my swap partner would notice no. 3 was missing?).
There were some vintage bells (sent off to another swap partner!) and these:
I’m not sure how you would describe them. They are plastic prickly balls and one has the head of a reindeer! I think they are rather fun and I really hope my swap partner will like them.
Linking up with magpie monday
