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

So much great stuff to show you! As always, click on the photos and links.

First up, courtesy of Voltant, a circa 1920's, 1930's Christmas tree, complete with putz village!

That's followed by A REPEAT REQUEST for a close-up of these amazing Christmas house-shaped candy tins that were a gift from Lady J; these are new but the lithography and embossing are outstanding with different scenes on the front, sides and back.  

And finally--from the days when electricity was still new and exciting--1915 "Electric" Christmas gifts.  Click on the photos and enjoy.

And to a reader looking to restore some Santa candy bags she was given, we believe this product is what you're looking for.  It's from Blumchen:

In the late 1990's, at the famous Nuremberg Toy Fair in Germany, we showed a piece of vintage mesh tubing to the owner of a family-owned 'Leonische draht' trimmings firm. He was kind enough to entertain our request to once again manufacture this wire mesh, and even purchased an original antique machine to produce it especially for us! 

Made in the same style and quality as Victorian-era knit wire net tubing, we are pleased to offer this authentic metallic "Trikotine Hohlschlauch". Read on! http://bit.ly/1s1IxcY
