  3. I have a fondness for old Christmas ornaments too. I have purchased them off of ebay a few years ago, but the shipping cost more than I paid on the auction I think. Great collection you have!

    Have a great VTT!

  4. If we had a place and really had cared, we all could probably have some wonderful vintage items. It is amazing how valuable some things are that we take for granted. We had some of these old oranments, I sold them in a garage slae years ago. What did I know. Was nice of you to stop by my place today.

  5. I have a few of my Grandmother's ornaments. You couldn't pry them out of my grubby little hands if ya tried. I love them because they were my Grandmother's. But if I picked up some ornaments from a yard sale or auction, you bet I'd sell them. You are right, ebay is not the same anymore.
