In this video I create eight charming and nostalgic vintage Christmas decor DIY’s using inexpensive supplies. These projects include a vintage clock/radio turned Christmas diorama, a chenille stem tree in a vintage spool, free printable vintage Shiny Brite boxes-one turned into a diorama, a small birdcage from a jar lid and wire, a doorknob hanger from a Dollar Tree snowflake and things from my yard, a vintage Christmas card wreath (free printables), vintage milk cap ornaments (more free printables), and greenery decor with angel wings made from Dollar Tree faux tin tiles.

Oh, thank you, Angela! At first I thought you meant that your grandfather would be upset that I ruined that old radio. Whew! So glad you liked it. It was extra work trying not to damage the clock, so I was relieved at the end to plug it in and see that it still worked! 😀

My mother was very crafty when it came to repurposing stuff from around the farm for indoor and outdoor decor about 50 years before it became trendy. We never threw anything away and I still pick up stuff around the farm and out of my Dad’s tobacco barn to repurpose. I ran across a box full of Christmas cards collected over the years..not sure what the plan is but I drug them home.
