CHRISTMAS GIRLS!!!~~Rednesday

Ever since I started blogging, I've tried to decorate a little differently each year for the holidays, just so that you won't get bored seeing all of my junk!
This old wooden box is about 42" long, and this year I decided to cram all of the Christmas girls/angels in it.
Unfortunately some girls got left out of the fun because there just wasn't enough room for everyone. Notice how I didn't say that I have too many figurines? No, instead I blamed it on the size of the box!
Love that little angel shh-shing everyone!
Does that girl on the left look familiar? She should, because she's my profile icon!
I would SO carry a big poinsettia purse like that, wouldn't you?!
What's red, white and blue and vintage all over? This Christmas decoration, made by Renee at My Vintage Mending. If you've never been there, please do visit. It's like a little piece of vintage heaven in every single post!~~~~~~~~~~I got sidetracked by all of the nice weather we've been having, which makes me want to play outside all day and not do a single thing inside. It's only going to be 40 tomorrow, so I guess I'll stay in and finish decorating!~~~~~~~ If you would like to see more reds, head over to It's A Very Cherry World, where Sue is our hostess every week!

I have to decorate differently every year?! I never even thought of that. Oh well, I have a whole year to figure that out. I love the creative way that you displayed all your girls. I think I may have to try that out next year.

Happy Holidays!

Thank you, thank you for the cute idea for displaying the little girls and angels!! I have so many little porcelains and I never realized how cute they could look all crammed in a box like that!

I wouldn't want to be one of the gals left out of the box...I would raise such a fuss! Super cute. I try and mix it up each year too..keeping it vintage fresh!

Carol! Your box with your holiday girlies is the cutest thing ever, so darling. And of course it's the box's fault, do not entertain any other scenario. You just need more real estate for your girls, that's all. ;)

Happy week to you! xo

A purse the size of a poinsettia would drag me down, I'm afraid!

Yes, you MUST get a bigger box! :) I love the shushing angel!

Andy's Attic said...

Of course the box wasn't big enough. Anyone could see that!!
Love how you put all the litle figurines in the too small box. it looks great.

Carol, I am in love with wooden box full of Christmas girls-it's fabulous. Great idea. I think if you change out your decor it's more fun, plus you get to have more stuff-if you rotate each year. Love the ornie from Renee.

Hi Carol!
Just look at all your darling little Christmas figurines. I like seeing them snugged together in that well weathered box. I love your little icon girl. She popped right out at me.
Your home is so welcoming, so warm and cozy.
Thank you for your kind comments on my blog. I love it when you visit, my sweet friend.
Your blog design is wonderful...It is so creative and so perfect for this time of year.
I hope you have the best kind of day!
Blessings and Merry Christmas!

Carol, that's so funny that we both grouped our "girls" together this year! I like yours better than mine though! Just love the circle ornaments with figures inside - so cute!

I have several Napco figurines, including the girl with the candy cane. Just found some nun and monk figurines. Love them all.
