This is the scene at the back door this holiday season.
A vintage wooden sled, some vintage metal snowshoes
I found on Ebay last month, an old lard tin
turned Christmas tree pot, and some vintage skis.
They are all sitting with a new but vintage-inspired
destination bus blind that I bought last year
from a dealer on Etsy. He customized some of the
destinations for me. Lots of Christmas references there!

Alison, your back door area looks great! Love all your choices, what great finds. I did get a pair of skates from eBay, this week, a little late for this year. But I have them for next or maybe I'll stick them somewhere.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas,
Debbie

I want to come to your house for Christmas. I chuckled when I saw your vintage snowshoes because when my blog partner/daughter and her new husband bought their home last year in Syracuse, they promptly got five feet of snow. They bought snow shoes and used them!!! It was a big adjustment for my southern girl.
ReplyDeleteAlison,
ReplyDeleteEverything you touch is magic. This vignette is magazine worthy! Love everything you've done down to the lard bucket! Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Alison,
ReplyDeletelove everything, the red snowshoes are wonderful! I have my vintage child's skis on the front porch but they spend the rest of the year in my familly room with my snowshoes and oars, love them to much to put them away! That sign is fabulous, perfectly Christmassy!
Merry Christmas
Rebecca
