Are you wondering what to do with all the Shiny Brites you inherited from your mom or grandma?
Or Aunt Martha's light-up ceramic Christmas tree?
Or all the vintage Christmas decor you accumulate from the thrift stores?
I don't know about you, but I never walked by a vintage piece of Christmas decor at the thrift store that didn't jump into my cart! And I also have a boatload of vintage Christmas decor from my mom's house.
In my home, the dining room is the place that I like to display the majority of the vintage Christmas decor. It seems to make more of an impact when grouped together.
But you could designate any room in your home as THE place for vintage Christmas. Or all the rooms.
I'm going to warn you up front, this is a photo rich post, so not a lot of compelling commentary.
But plenty of Christmas eye candy.
OK, just breaking in here to say this is the ceramic tree that I got at the thrift store in October. I told you I'd put it to good use.
And here's where I put my Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer vintage sheet music that I had made into a free printable for you.
OK, I'm back to shutting up now. Carry on.

What a beautiful dining room! It looks so pretty and festive! I love the ceramic tree with all the lights, it's beautiful! I think my husband's grandmother has one like that too. Merry Christmas!

So much good stuff! Love a glimpse of your Christmas home.

Ooooh, I used to have a ceramic tree like this, only it was white with red lights. I love this green one with the colored lights. I eventually gave mine away with all the moving, and now I wish I had it. Your lantern is perfect for the Christmas season.

Love all of the vintage ornaments. I happen to have one of those ceramic trees too. From my mother-in-law. It was her mothers.

Pam I love your dining room, it's filled with so many little touches that make it cozy. I especially like your ceramic Christmas tree with the tiny lights. Also, I wish I could have a big tree in our dining room!

I'm wishing I could get my ceramic tree back from my daughter. At least I'd have a lighted tree up this year!
Your tinselling skills are top notch. Not too much to take away from the beauty of your fabulous China cabinet! I have many of the same vintage ornaments. Love it!

I might just need to find an excuse to find a platter to set my ceramic tree onto. I love the height that it gives your tree. Great displays, Pam.
