Very Vintage Christmas: Part 1

A roundup of vintage Christmas items from Etsy.

Do you love vintage ornaments? I do. They remind me of being at my grandmothers house for Christmas. I can remember being about 5 or so, eating cinnamon ribbon candy and eyeing my grandmothers mercury glass ornaments and just feeling....lost...in a wonderful way....looking into the prisms of glass and round balls and feeling almost hypnotized by the color and light.

I'll be doing a little vintage Etsy roundup over here until the New Year. For part 1, here are some great deals I found on Etsy if you are looking to find a few of your own mercury glass treasures and recapture that moment.

  • Super snazzy collection of 12 glass balls, in a rainbow of colors, sold by Flossy's Treasures only $27.99.
  • Box of 10 shiny gold ball ornaments, so simple and beautiful! Only $10 and free shipping, sold by Katyagray.
  • Set of 12 really gorgeous bronzy pink mercury glass balls for $25 by Dear Macy.
  • Darling miniature glass balls, 30 of them! Sold by Jewels things, $8.07 USD.
