Mantel and Santa at the flea

It's Wednesday...
Flea Market day...
asked my hubby to go with me...
the man is NOT a morning person!!!
(Mental note to self...do not invite him again)...lol

The same decor was kept on the
mantel...just added  fun and festive
decor.

Sweet, dear, grumpy in the morning hubby
was able to drill the glass knobs onto
the mantel for our stockings.

Poor Santa...he has been trying to find a good home for
the last month...sadly, he was too pricey for me to
buy at the time.
BUT...
Today was our lucky day!!
The price was right and he
finally gets to come home with me.

The Christmas cups are still in their
original box and
the Inarco lady head vase will
be joining my collection.


I love, love this teapot...
it's robins egg blue, enamel and has
a marking at the bottom.
The only thing it needs is the glass knob
at the top.

The lace table runner was a great find,
sure will look great in my living room!

Today is our first official Christmas day vacation...
so far so good.

Have a Merry Christmas..
stay safe!
Sylvia

Love the Santa and teapot. I just bought myself one of those vintage jewelry Christmas tree pictures. Mine has the crafters name and "1970" on the back. I have tons of old costume jewelry and am thinking about making one of my own design. Thanks for sharing.

LOL! I never shop with Mr. Sissie.
He is a real pain.

I love all your pretty Christmas vingettes and decorations. That little vintage Santa is a sweetie.
