holiday happiness day 9 ~ 12 days of christmas

as many of you know...i am joining my sister, meems @ hoe and shovel in posting from the garden or outside decor...the 12 days of christmas.

i love vintage...antique....things with a history.
so when it comes to decorating adding those type
things in the christmas decor just comes naturally.

antique apple orchard pickin' ladder adorned with greenery.

an old pair of snow shoes standing on a black antique chair
just inside the backdoor.

a wrought iron gate usually covered with
a vining plant now holds a live wreath from
last year...saved and dried naturally...for a very
rustic feeling it evokes

an old snow sled hung just outside our back door
made more beautiful with a live fraser fur wreath.
and just opposite that are some carefully place antique oars
leaning against an old ceiling tile with the best rusted green patina.

next to my newly planted violas a
completely rusted milk can with just a
portion of a piece of vintage fencing.

happy christmas dressed in vintage.
