Today, I’m sharing my favorite must have Christmas decor items so you can deck your halls in style.
For those of you who believe Christmas should wait until after Thanksgiving, I hear you.
Magazines plan seasonal issues 6 months ahead of time and as a blogger, I have to be a bit ahead of the seasons too. You know I love decking my halls every year and you can see more of my ideas from Christmas past here.
I’m changing things up once again and I’ve been scouring my favorite stores to find the best vintage (mostly) Christmas inspired decor plus some other fun finds and I want to share them with you.

This year, everything old is new again and I couldn’t be happier! The classic Shiny Brite ornaments have been reimagined and you’ll see both old and new in my house this year. I love this set of new Shiny Brites above that look amazingly like the vintage ones. Feather trees are perfect for showing off ornaments and every kitchen needs a set of vintage looking Santa mugs for their hot chocolate.
I’ve also thrown in some non-vintage inspired must haves including my favorite remote control fairy lights with eight different light settings. They are truly magical. I am loving little houses this year and you’ll see that theme all around my house so stay tuned. If you’ve got a Harry Potter fan in your house (everyone in my house!), they will love their very own Harry, Ron or Hermione ornament!
So while you can scour thrift shops, estate sales, Etsy and eBay for the real thing, if you can’t find what you’re looking for at affordable prices, these are a nice stand in.
Hover over each photo to see prices or click each pic to learn more and you can decide if there is anything on my must have list that is also on yours.
These prices are very reasonable. And there was one item I ran into and they were the cups of SANTA. I had when I was a child . That was a long time agao. He he he Anyway thank you for giving me some ideas for this year for my sisters.
I love those Santa mugs! I have one vintage mug.
it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! thanks
Now that song is stuck in my head!
These ideas are great! I love the vintage deer. Deer are one of my favorite things to collect.
Isn’t he cute! I can’t wait to show you what I did with my deer this year!
Thanks Kelly for finding all these decorations. I haven’t started looking yet but, this will certainly help when i do, love the beads and shiny brights.
I love Shiny Brites! It’s fun to see them make a comeback
Happy to see Shiny Bright’s vintage ornament styles. My true vintage ones are slowly depleting and looking rather ratty.
That’s too bad Lesley – consider it patina!
Target had some really cute bottlebrush trees and white light up houses in their dollar spot yesterday. I love my vintage shiny brites and ornaments and my vintage ceramic white Christmas tree with all blue lights.
You will see some of those white houses in my Christmas tour this year! I put a little twist on them! Your vintage tree sounds gorgeous!
OHHH! cant wait to see your house tour this year. Those shiny brites are everything!
They are making a comeback Hope!
