Very Vintage Christmas Home Photo & Video Tour!

November 29, 2021  Christmas | Christmas House Tours | Uncategorized

I’ve been decking and trimming and stringing and hanging and I’m excited to share my 11th Christmas home tour with you! It’s a little bit vintage a little bit modern and I had so much fun using vintage and thrifted finds in unique ways. I’m not one of those gals who give you a room or two … I’m giving you a whole house tour with tons of pics and a video tour of my home. Welcome to my Very Vintage Christmas Home Tour!

I’m kicking off the first day of the Jennifer Rizzo’s Holiday Housewalk which means that all week long, you can hop from blog to blog to see some amazing homes decked out for Christmas. The tour begins at Jen’s house here so don’t miss it.

Jennifer Rizzo Holiday Housewalk

If you’re visiting from my friend Jenny at Dear Lillie … welcome! Make sure to check out her always stunning home!

I added a source list at the end of this post in case you see something that you have to have.

I am so excited to include a video tour of my home all decked out for Christmas so make sure to watch it (after the short ad) below!

Love this whimsical and colorful Christmas mantel with cute ice skater art and feather trees dripping in vintage Shiny Brite ornaments kellyelko.com

For those of you new to my blog, I live in New Jersey in a circa 1913 house that we did a complete gut renovation on 12 years ago. We now have the old bones of an old house with the modern conveniences and updates of a new one! Just like my house, I love mixing old and new for a one of a kind look … especially at Christmas!

The mantel is the first thing I decorate and when I have that figured out, everything else seems to flow from there. I’ve said this before over the years, but I really think this may be my favorite mantel yet!

Can you believe this ice skating scene is a page out of this calendar that I had enlarged at Staples?! I love the whimsical ice skaters and the colorful skyscrapers and knew it would make the perfect focal point for my mantel.

How cute is this little Boston Terrier in a Christmas sweater - and I love the Christmas mantel with sparse trees and whimsical ice skating art kellyelko.com

Sushi’s favorite time of the year is when she dons her favorite Christmas sweater! Although she asked me if the horizontal stripes make her look chubby (I assured her they do not)!

Love the feather trees with vintage Shiny Brite ornaments on this colorful Christmas mantel kellyelko.com

While these may not be antique feather trees (those are made with real goose feathers), I’ve had these reproductions for years and knew they would be perfect on the mantel dripping with vintage Shiny Brite ornaments.

I found similar looking trees here.

Whimsical Christmas decor - love the feather trees with vintage ornaments and the retro deer kellyelko.com

Whimsical Christmas mantel with ice skaters in NYC art and pom pom stockings kellyelko.com

A trio of pom pom stockings hung on the left side of the mantel visually balances out the bowl and shovel on the right side of the hearth.

Gorgeous colorful Christmas mantel with ice skaters in NYC art, feather trees, vintage ornaments and whimsical pom pom stockings kellyelko.com

I carried the ice skating theme down to the hearth and filled a big bowl with faux snowballs then nestled a pair of my daughters old ice skates among them.

My hubby’s childhood snow shovel completes the look!

Love this big bowl of faux snowballs and the vintage snow shovel kellyelko.com

A forest of vintage bottle brush trees continues down onto my coffee table with my collection of loving cups acting as tree stands.

Love these vintage bottle brush trees displayed in vintage trophies kellyelko.com

Love this vintage landscape gallery wall with little elves for Christmas kellyelko.com

I’m trying to work with what I have as opposed to changing out my entire house for Christmas and a few elves peeking from the shelves of my vintage gallery wall adds a touch of Christmas whimsy.

A roaring fire makes this the coziest spot in the house.

It doesn’t get much easier than putting string lights into glass jars.

An old Christmas tree stand becomes a cute vase to display clippings.

Love this vintage Christmas tree stand with Santa graphics used as a vase for branches kellyelko.com

I’ve been going simpler and simpler on my bannister and no longer feel the need to wrestle garland into place. Instead, I love hanging a big wreath for a festive pop of color.

Love the whimsical vintage Christmas tray gallery wall in this stunning home tour kellyelko.com

I love a good gallery wall and had fun finding these vintage Christmas trays while thrifting.

Love this vintage Christmas tray gallery wall in this farmhouse kitchen kellyelko.com

Love this farmhouse kitchen for Christmas and the huge vintage numbers against the marble backsplash kellyelko.com

I’m a big believer in displaying little things together to make a big impact like this bowl of velvet Santas!

Love this vintage Putz house display and the vintage ceramic light up Christmas trees kellyelko.com

These vintage Putz houses were a recent find and I love they way they look grouped together to form a little village on my kitchen shelves.

Vintage Putz house display - love the mini houses and the little wood trees kellyelko.com

Love this collection of vintage and new ceramic light up Christmas trees kellyelko.com

I am most excited about my new collection of ceramic light up Christmas trees! All of them are vintage except for the white tree with colorful lights.

Love this collection of vintage ceramic light up Christmas trees - especially the mice tree! kellyelko.com

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse and my mouse tree is a rare find.

Love this collection of Santa mugs under glass kellyelko.com

Vintage Santa mugs mix with new to create a fun display under glass.

Add an ornament to an everyday object for a touch of Christmas - love this vintage Bambi deer ornament kellyelko.com

I’ve been putting a pair of sparse Christmas trees in my dining room for years and don’t see myself stopping this tradition any time soon.

Beautiful Christmas dining room with a pair of sparse Christmas trees filled with vintage Shiny Brite ornaments kellyelko.com

Because I’ve been on a vintage Shiny Brite ornament finding roll lately, I decided to pile up my latest finds in a zinc trough for the world’s prettiest centerpiece.

Huge trough filled with vintage Shiny Brite glass ornaments! kellyelko.com

My favorite tip for setting a table is to use dishcloths as napkins! These $3 All is Bright dishcloths are perfect for any vintage ornament lover!

Love this huge centerpiece of vintage Shiny Brite ornaments! kellyelko.com

Beautiful pair of sparse Christmas trees filled with vintage glass ornaments kellyelko.com

Because I like things that do double duty, I’m a big fan of using throw blankets as tree skirts. The tassels on these are so much fun!

Christmas dining room decked out with two Christmas trees filled with tons of vintage Shiny Brites kellyelko.com

Gorgeous Shiny Brite ornaments! kellyelko.com

My dining room is the perfect blend of old (vintage Danish modern chairs that I recovered in new Otomi fabric) and new (dining table).

Love this festive Christmas dining room with two Christmas trees filled with vintage ornaments kellyelko.com

One of the best things I’ve ever done was hire an artist to paint this mural onto my dining room walls. I got the look of wallpaper for a fraction of the cost!

Festive Christmas bar cart with Be Merry Garland and huge wreath kellyelko.com

My bar cart is a vintage bamboo chest of drawers that got jazzed up for the holidays with this cute Be Merry banner.

Fill a bowl with one color vintage glass ornaments then add a vintage tree topper! kellyelko.com

I stumbled across a huge amount of vintage red ornaments at the thrift store and knew they would look amazing piled high on an old ironstone platter. I added the vintage tree topper and tiny little knee hugger elf for fun!

No bar cart is complete without a set of vintage drinking glasses and a vintage champagne bucket.

See more of my vintage drinking glass collection here

Love these vintage Santa and reindeer drinking glasses and Piper champagne bucket kellyelko.com

Let’s get cozy in the family room where our judgmental blow mold elf with his giant candy cane resides.

Cozy Christmas family room - love the elf blow mold, berry wreath and cozy throws and pillows kellyelko.com

Blow molds are the life size version of elf on the shelf and it’s fun to move this big elf to unexpected places around the house (he insists on holding not only his candy cane … but the remote control too)!

Love this festive home tour - the antique glass jars filled with string lights and the festive vintage elf blow mold kellyelko.com

More string lights draped in and around my collection of vintage demijohns (wine jugs) creates a warm glow at night.

Vintage elf blow molds stands watch with his candy cane! kellyelko.com

I love this colorful row of houses in the snow pillow and can leave it out all winter long.

Cozy family room with vintage elf blow mold and ice bucket planter kellyelko.com

Using vintage ice buckets as planters is one of my favorite things to do and this snowy scene is so fun for winter.

Christmas came very early when my friend gave me this HUGE grapefruit tree for my sunroom!

Beautiful sunroom decked out for Christmas - love the tree filled with vintage glass ornaments kellyelko.com

I love a disco ball any time of the year because they catch the light and create magical patterns on the walls and ceiling.

Love this festive sunroom for Christmas - the rattan daybed with red throw and reindeer pillow kellyelko.com

This is where I surround myself with all the plants!

Cute Boston Terrier Rudolph pillow! kellyelko.com

The pillow is actually my dog Sushi! I added a big red Rudolph nose to her cute little face and turned her into a pillow that you can get here.

Festive Christmas sunroom - love the tree with vintage Shiny Brite ornaments and the rattan daybed kellyelko.com

Who says Christmas trees have to be evergreen? My grapefruit tree got a Christmas glow up with the addition of all of my striped Shiny Brites.

Vintage striped Shiny Brite ornaments kellyelko.com

Scattering bowls of ornaments (or in this case vintage figural milk glass light bulbs) around the house is a quick and easy way to add a little bit of Christmas to every room.

Remember, the Clauses (and Sushi!) know when you’ve been naughty so try to be on your best behavior (at least until you get your gifts)!

Wishing you and your family the merriest of Christmases.

I’ll be sharing more Christmas inspiration so stay tuned.

      I have followed you for a couple of years, I really enjoy your new vintage finds. It is truly the hunt also. The mixture of old and new is done so cleanly and how great are all the vintage finds look. I am jealous of your ability to get more vintage items in the East. I live in Midwest and some of the nicer items are hard to come by. Thanks for sharing your house at Christmas and all seasons. Fun to watch the changes.

    I so enjoyed this tour. I am old enough that what is now considered vintage is still part of my regular Christmas decorating each year. I chuckle over being so happy to find the ceramic trees. I have three of them and am the original owner. LOL. Your ornament collection is impressive. Mine are part of my childhood, but a much more modest collection. Some of them have the remnants of the old snow that we used to spray on our live trees, and some boxes still contain some of the old tinsel that we would hang, never throw, on our tree.

    Love, love the ways you have displayed all your vintage decor. That print and the decor around it on the mantle is fantastic. Your stone doves took me back, my parents had them, not sure whatever happened since. Thanks for the idea to store the snowballs in a bowl or basket as decor. We have a couple sets for when we feel like indoor snowball fights. Happy holidays!

Join me as I decorate my 100 year old home, scour thrift stores, create pretty things, putter in my peony and hydrangea filled garden, and mix up a mean cocktail all with a touch of sarcasm and a side of bacon - Cheers!
