My favourite Christmas decorations are old battered Santas from the 1970s - not retro, just genuinely old! They have been part of our Christmas for decades now so I love them even though they are on their last legs.
ReplyDeleteI love the old chinesey paper lanterns that Mum and Dad had on their tree and I need to find for my tree now! The little tiger is just lovely!
ReplyDeleteLittle Tiger looks adorable and a beautiful bright thing to stitch in winter!
ReplyDeletemy favorite ornaments are the ones from the 60s that have pinwheels inside and spin with the heat of the lights .. only the lights don't put off enough heat anymore. Love the tiger.
ReplyDeleteThat's a tough one! So many sentimental favorites. I'd have to choose a little wooden one that has a group of sledders, connected in a line. It's so old fashioned and sweet.

Hmmm...probably the plastic canvas ornaments that mom and I made back when I was in high school. Thanks for the giveaway! I've always loved that tiger.

My all-time favourite tree ornament is one which was my gran's, and then she gave it to my mum when she stopped bothering putting up a Christmas tree. It was a transparent red plastic ring and suspended inside was a shiny glass silver and red beetle! Just done a search and OH MY GOD THAT'S IT!! Here's the link: http://www.christmas4ever.com/item/1384.html I loved it because it was just so ODD!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite ornament that I own is one that I bought from a charity shop a couple of years ago which came in a bag of assorted baubles. It's a glass one, shaped like a classic fly agaric toadstool. I like old glass baubles best I think, because they remind me of Christmases when I was little in the 70s. Here's a picture of it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/joey7/4193191538/

I have three- each is a picture of my husband and I, one for each year since we got married. Which reminds me, I need to get this year's ornament frame and picture soon!
ReplyDeleteI have some really wonderful glass ornaments that were my parents ~ I think they are from the 40's. Very bright colors in red, blue and green. I love having them.
ReplyDeleteThe tiger is adorable! I have many favourites, all one's that were hand made by various artists and purchased at craft fairs. I think if I had to pick just one, it would be a flannel embroidered cat (this one: http://www.flickr.com/photos/beachedlibrarian/6470015555/)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite ornament is one my Mother gave me before she passed away. It is a opossum hanging upside down and reading a book. I love the whimsy. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteHe's wonderful! I have several favourite ornaments and am struggling to narrow it down but I think I'll choose my glass angel that my brother/sister-in-law bought me a few years ago. I always ensure I hang her on a branch that's just above a light so the facets on the glass make little rainbows...
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is a white felt dove I made in first grade for my mom. I put a roosters comb on it lol My family tries to hide it from me but I find it and put it front and center every year! Thank you for the giveaway!
ReplyDelete90% of our ornaments are handmade. Each year my girls and I make new ones, but my favorite is the one I made in 2nd grade, a hand sewn felt Christmas tree.
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrific little tiger.I love the whole pattern,eventhe grass he's walking on.As for fave ornaments, my granddaughter and I get together every year and try a new hobby to make ornaments to give and to hang.So far her painted efforts from when she was 4 are my favorites.Thanks for the chance to win the tiger pdf, and for writing such a good blog.
