Cherished Christmas Ornaments Through the Decades -
1990's HAND PAINTED
I have a "hodgepodge" style Christmas tree and I love the nostalgia that comes with that style tree. For the next few weeks I will be highlighting a few of my favorite ornaments organized by the decade.
In addition to these ornaments I will feature Christmas songs that I remember listening to in that featured decade. For the 1990's each post will feature a Christmas song from the "Home Alone" movie soundtrack.
A few years ago I showcased my "Christmas Family Tree Ornaments" that I made using photocopies of old photos - they are Scrapbook style ornaments (click HERE to view that series)
One of the first places that my husband & I lived was in an old farmhouse that resembled one of these featured ornaments (see the first picture below). The Landlord of this 130 year old house lived next door and she was very talented. She hand painted these featured porcelain ornaments for our Christmas tree.
Please enjoy "Carol of the Bells" by John Williams (on the Home Alone Soundtrack)
