Thrifting Diaries – November (Christmas Edition!)

November 18, 2019  I Scored at the Thrift Store | Thrifting | Uncategorized

Welcome to Kelly’s Thrifting Diaries November – Christmas Edition! I’m on a thrifting roll and Facebook Marketplace has rewarded me once again with a great find, or should I say 103 great finds! The thrift shop gods also smiled on me and I found even more vintage Christmas stuff including something that made a complete mess in my car!

Huge vintage collection of Shiny Brite Christmas ornaments kellyelko.com #shinybrite #vintageornaments #vintagechristmas #vintagecollection #christmasornaments #christmasdecor

Forget the old saying, “you can never be too rich or too thin” because I’m officially changing it to “you can never have too many vintage ornaments.” The seller had priced each ornament individually but I made her an offer for the whole shebang. After some tense negotiations, she accepted my offer and I enlisted my sister to pick up my score because she lives close to the seller.

Just like Bubba Gump can name an infinite number of ways to cook shrimp, there are just as many ways to display these beautiful old ornaments which is why I think you can never have too many. You can hang them from a tree, create a one of a kind wreath, display them in bowls, jars or just about any other vessel you can think of, tie them to napkins for a beautiful place setting, fry them … oh wait, that’s for shrimp not ornaments.

If all those vintage ornaments weren’t enough, I also scored some great vintage Christmas finds at the thrift store …

I screamed, “what the flock” (I apologize to the mother of the baby I startled) when I spotted a flocked Christmas tree as soon as I walked into the thrift store. Now, every time I get into my Jeep, I’ll be covered in little bits of white flocking but that’s the price one pays for being a thrifting diva. I made a little video of the tree in my Instagram stories here.

Why oh why do thrift store workers insist on putting price stickers on the front of boxes! Luckily I was able to peel it off of this vintage Shiny Brite box and I guess I should count my blessings that they didn’t commit the ultimate sin … write the price with a Sharpie! Of course these ornaments can’t compare to the others I found but I love that they came in the original box. Can you spot the thing that doesn’t belong? A random red ornament snuck into the box.

If you’re looking for a particular color or design, you can also find a beautiful assortment of vintage Shiny Brite ornaments here.

These vintage bottle brush trees were stuffed into a little box. After I spend 12 hours picking off all the fuzz balls and tinsel, they’ll be good as new.

I can’t believe the color selection of these old bottle brush trees here.

Don’t miss my October Thrifting Diaries here because I scored some doozies!

Meanwhile, I’m on the hunt for vintage Santa mugs that are as elusive as Sasquatch, to add to my collection (of one)! Fingers crossed I’ll find some on my next thrifting outing. In the meantime, I have these Santa mugs which I love and I just bought these adorable Santa measuring cups.

    I love vintage Shiny Brite ornaments. I have three special wine glasses: one from my parents, and two from a long-ago wonderful date at Disney World, when the husband I were magically able to slip away for a magical evening alone. I would put one ornament in each, and display them on a windowsill.

    Kelly you are such an inspiration! I wish I had ($$$$) half the energy you have to get things done. Right now I use all my vintage ornaments to decorate 2 small trees, but as we all have learned this becomes an addiction and there is never enough of them or can we pass them by. I am particularly fond of the style of ornaments that decorated my parents trees when I was young. I think everyone has their favorite kind and I want another tree in my bedroom with only pastel colors and another with only blue ornaments to make a Dutch tree to commemorate that part of my heritage. Thank you for all that you give to us and thanks for this opportunity.

    I would add the ornaments to my collection from my grandparents and my husband’s as well. Switch it up every year with what I would do with them-hanging on a tree in my family room or likely in a centerpiece on my dining room table. Usually, lit up with little battery lights. The ornaments are one of my favorite-so unique. I love the “hunt” to find them.

    Love shiny brites! I would display in trifle dish and apothecary jars with a layer of snow on the bottom.

    I would love to put some on a dough bowl as a center piece! They’re beautiful

    So lovely! Growing up we always decorated the tree with ornaments from my dads childhood. Every year my sister and I would pick out an ornament to add to our tree, but my favorites were always my dads old mercury glass ones. I’m always on the look out for a good set of vintage ornaments and these would absolutely end up on my tree for my little family to hopefully enjoy as much as I enjoyed the ones on my family tree as a kid.

    I’d place them in a cloche to be on display in my family room. We have vintage decor and they’d join us!

    I would display them in a press glass bowl with my other Shiny Brites. Some are from my childhood.

    I would hang these on my tree. I have placed them in a vintage bowl from my Grandmother in the past.
    Love vintage. I have a collection from my Grandparents.
    A nice and thoughtful giveaway.

    Besides on the tree, I love displaying them right in the original boxes, they just don’t make them like they used to.

    I would displaythem on my family Christmas tree with all the ornaments I have collected over the years. My girls and I have purchased several vintage Christmas ornaments over the years and some of them are are most cherished.

    […] about abundant! In my Thrifting Diaries, I shared how I scored over 100 vintage ornaments on Facebook Marketplace and while I lost count of how many I now own, there are well over 300 vintage Shiny Brites crammed […]
