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

As always, some wonderful finds, oldies but goodies and more. Click on the photos and links.

First up, a little St. Patrick's decorating, "stone" cottage by Howard Lamey...

It's followed by another Howard creation---one of our favorites---his "repro" of an outstanding vintage made in Japan Christmas putz house; click on the link to see it from start to finish--http://bit.ly/1iJgNEX

That's followed by a charming Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs set from 1957, courtesy of Croton's own SeriousToyz.com - and by special request---it turns out that one of our readers found the dwarfs at an estate sale but not the doll...

And finally, one of those back-page pulp magazine ads that probably promised more than it actually delivered; yes you too can have your own U-CONTROL 7 FOOT MONSTER GHOST!

Again, click on the photos and links.

Yes folks, it's always "honeycomb" season for many of us---and while the vintage pieces always have a certain allure, newer items can be just as much fun.  Honeycomb also offers the perfect touch--in our opinion---to vintage (or new!)  putz house displays.  Here are some that won't break the bank--click on the link for offerings from PARTY CHEAP http://bit.ly/1iVH6rH 

To the reader looking who believes she has found a box of "1920's, 1930's Christmas lighting", lucky you!

To learn more about 1920 to 1930 holiday Christmas lighting, we've got just the place for you at THE OLD CHRISTMAS TREE LIGHTS FORUM; CLICK HERE

And if you're looking for old fashioned tin reflectors for your MIDGET lights, Blumchem has them -- made in Canada -- a little pricey -- star shapes only -- but the only ones we've found so far for the tiny Christmas lights--NOT CHEAP--but very effective especially on feather trees http://www.blumchen.com/christmas_shop_tin01.html
