Vintage Christmas Wrapping Paper and Cards



Last weekend one of my favorite antique shops was having
a holiday open house.  I spotted this vintage wrapping paper
from the 1950's and fell in love with the graphics.

I have been saving vintage Christmas cards on my Very Vintage Christmas
board on Pinterest.

Just can't help but to love these vintage scotties.




And I love this scene by the fireplace.  Too charming!

If you would like to see more of the vintage Christmas cards 
I  have been saving, go to Very Vintage Christmas.  I have lots of
other Pinterest boards too, so enjoy my pins and follow along
if you like.

I am happily joining



Bentley ~ I am all finished with my Christmas shopping except for 
one very special loved one ~ YOU!  I need a list from you Bentley.
I know you can't write (yet) but you could give me some hints.

Hugs,
Susan and Bentley

  6. Hi Susan!
    Your collection of cards is adorable. How I love the sentimental scenes with little children and puppies. Those were the Norman Rockwell kind of cards!
    Blessings and I wish you a Merry Christmas!

  7. You and Bentley did good on these vintage finds. I love all cards, but find the older ones are more interesting.

  8. Isn't vintage Christmas paper the cutest? I was so thrilled the other day, I happened upon a vintage Christmas pattern printed on my favorite thing ever....FABRIC. Yes, I grabbed a yard of it & have it sitting prominently on my "to do" fabric pile. Brings a smile to my face every time I look at it. I'm sure all Bentley wants for Christmas is hugs & pat-pats from his loving mom.
    Wags,

  14. Loving all the vintage graphics! I wish that they would reproduce vintage wrapping paper so that I could actually use it. I have a few packages and would never think to actually wrap a present with it!

    Happy Holidays,

    Erica
