Paper Mache Christmas Decorations

When I'm out thrifting and looking for vintage Christmas decorations, I keep a lookout for paper mache decorations like the trio above. These decorations are from the 60's and/or 70's and mostly made in Japan.

I've noticed that these type of paper mache decorations are becoming more collectible. All the more reason to thrift!

There's something special about the patina ornaments take on over the years.  They are lovely visual links to Christmases past, stirring memories of happy times.

Even the boxes of shiny brite ornaments make me feel sentimental. I like their simple but festive color palette that lets the ornaments shine.

You can make these sweet Christmas trees from catalogs like Avon and L.L. Bean while you're watching Rudolph or The Christmas Carol. The best part? Being able to toss them in the recycle after the season!
