Growing up in Michigan in a small town during the 1950s and 1960s I had my share of amazing Christmases.
I remember going to my brother’s in-laws house where they had a huge Christmas tree decked out in bubbling icicle lights, tinsel and a huge variety of Christmas ornaments all covered by white angel hair fake snow.
At our house we always decorated a blue spruce tree with its tiny acorns where my mom would hide small gifts in its branches for the grandkids to find.
The entire town was decorated with plastic Santa Clauses, reindeer and nativity scenes, lights of all colors that twinkled and other over-the-top Christmas decorations. It was a good time to be a kid.
Visions Of A Vintage Christmas, by Bob Richter and publisher Globe Pequot, brings back Christmas memories from years gone past in a delightful hardbound book spotlighting nostalgic decorating all throughout the house.
The author presents a heartfelt tribute to his own Christmas past and provides a trip down Christmas Memory Lane both with text and photos.
Everything imaginable associated with past Christmas decor is included such as decorations, trees, family photographs, table decorations, candles, garland, Santas, tinsel, crafts and any and everything that decorated each room in the house.
What a wonderful holiday tribute!
Romans 15:13Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
