VINTAGE CHRISTMAS DECOR

Here are some favourite vintage Christmas decor items I found on Etsy.


Letterpress blocks from Monki Vintage


Bottlebrush Christmas trees from Haven Vintage


Rocking horse from Recycle Buy Vintage


Sock stretchers from Little Byrd Vintage


Needlepoint stocking from Sugarpush Vintage (my own shop)

When decorating our home, I try to incorporate as much vintage stuff as I can because nothing adds more character and style like vintage does. And Christmas is an excellent time to mix in some vintage-y goodness with your contemporary decorations. I don't go nuts and deck out the entire place as if Santa and his reindeer came in and exploded. There's usually an Advent wreath, an ornament tree, and this year I added the Christmas felt garland I sell in the LAX TO YVR shop. A vintage item or two are, of course, thrown in to the whole shebang like these.

Typography is still very hot in home decor. Letterpress types are a fantastic way to add some holiday flair. I have a set of Scrabble tiles that I might use to say something appropriate for the season.

Happy decorating!
