MORE FABULOUS VINTAGE WEBSITES, FINDS, ETC. FROM EVERYTHING CROTON

Step back in time to 1961--courtesy of fellow Christmas collector ScottG--and the Poloron Products Booth at the National Housewares Manufacturers Association Convention. Vintage Christmas Blow-Mold Heaven! Click on the photo; we'll take six of each! Thanks ScottG.

It's followed by an oldie but goodie from the amazing collections (and the 2013 Christmas mantle) of author Antoinette Stockenberg...all her mantles--with accompanying stories--are worth repeat visits.  We love rthe red(pink) windows in this vintage made in Japan putz house.  See her 2013 putz mantle here.

And finally a great 1951 ad for Community Plate silverware. A beautiful piece of illustration. Click on the photos and links.

 
We're considering the endless possibilities with decorative tapes and discovered this very interesting site called http://www.cutetape.com/ - you really should spend some time there---loads of inspiration--and plenty of crafting possibilities for sure.

Check out this model railroad video, 1940's, with putz house and more; click here to read all about--and see it....

Very cool site worth visiting again: The Official 60’s site—good music, Woolworths, soda in glass bottles, Oxydol premiums, etc. http://www.the60sofficialsite.com/

So...a reader wants to re-create a vintage windmill putz--and so.... Howard Lamey's "Windmill Putz"-- http://bit.ly/19TORqI
