No dining happens here in December - the Christmas decorations take precedence. Fortunately, the weather is hot here over Christmas, so we eat outside if we have guests, and usually balance a plate on our knees in front of the telly downstairs if we're eating alone.
This year I have displayed my small collection of Nativities on the dining room table:
and here is a wider view of the table, also showing my L&L Oh Christmas Tree and L&L Santa of the Forest, and the display cabinet that currently houses some of my vintage Christmas collection (mostly Santas and angels). Peeking round the table leg near the window s one of my two large 1950s Santa money boxes.
Here is a clearer pic of the display cabinet.
These are my vintage Santa dolls.
and the final pic for tonight - Vermillion's Nine Santa Sampler guarded by a few much-loved Santas.
All your decorations are just beautiful. So nice to have vintage items. I found some cute little Hudson Bay bells that I remembered as a child and they are now on my tree. Merry Christmas! :)
ReplyDeleteI do love the vintage items. Most of them, however, are not as old as I am - maybe that's why I like them!
