I got two boxes of Christmas goodies at the auction. Most of the items have a vintage flair. Wanna see?
I think this Santa was made by one of the kids in school. The red fabric reminds me of the old red long-johns.
These three pins probably aren't too old, but the colors are great!
I've never seen Christmas combs before. Funny, the girl in the ad picture doesn't have one in her hair!
And this guy makes me think of one of the 7 Dwarfs instead of an elf. Not sure I would put fire over his head...especially with my track record!

If I was sure it wasn't dry-rotted, I would so wear this one!
Where can I find this kind of pipe cleaner?
All you need is some greenery and poinsettias to poke in the back.
This cute tin plate must have come with a fruitcake on top.
And once you eat all the fruitcake, you have the recipe to make your own next year!

My favorite Christmas purchase are these beautiful Christmas cards. I'll be surprised if I can make myself send them out next year!

LOVE the cards!! Too cute!
you can get those pipecleaners on ebay...they are 'chenille bumps'. love all the vintage christmas goodies!
If that headband is still in the package, I'm sure it's ok--and it is sooooo cute. I also like that deer. No Xmas stuff at the auction I went to, but lots of stuff that had been stored in a Florida basement (I didn't even know there WERE basements in Florida!) since 1932. Can you say M-O-L-D-Y? Thankfully nothing I bought was tainted (cough cough cough).
So much vintage goodness. Love those Christmas Cards.
Wow what a box of treats. I have never been to an auction I don't think I even seen any advertised in my area. I may have to venture in to the city.
