    Hi friends!! Come along as I try to recreate a vintage Christmas in the living room!! I'm using some special dolls my mother made, and I'm making this room a cozy retreat for this season. There's also a blog post in the description box with photos and details, so let me know if you have any questions!

    My grandparents, having lived through the depression, never threw anything away. We always carefully collected the tree tinsel from each Christmas and stored in a brown paper bag to use each year again. It was very fragile and wrinkled, but lovely! I miss that so much.

    As usual I am enchanted with your warm and glowing living room. It takes me back to my beloved grandma's home. And my childhood home too. For I have many ornaments and the Angel tree topper From those ago days. My mom carried on the traditions then myself. We always had grandma's cardboard village houses with the tiny homemade picket fence too. My uncle's dad made the creche that held our nativity set. Each year I can relive those wonderful days as I decorate, just as you do. Our decor and taste for our past is so similar and I anxiously await each of your videos and blog post. May our Lord richly bless you and your family with a warm and snug Christmas!! Love from Lin in Michigan
