Vintage Ornaments

Probably my favorite way to decorate is with vintage Christmas ornaments.  They are so easy to find, inexpensive and come in such a great variety of colors and styles.  They are also versatile as they can decorate a tree (post coming later), get piled into a bowl, adorn packages or be scattered on a tabletop.  This photo is my dining room table centerpiece.  I simply took one of my (many) pedestal bowls, filled it with pinecones, then literally dropped ornaments onto it.  I've tried placing them very purposefully before, but just dropping them so they roll into natural spots looks so much better.  The blue ornaments are in my living room, and not one of those on the candlabra has broken yet!
