Pink Swap Info

I'm involved in a very fun Vintage Pink Christmas Shop hosted by Jennifer at Rosey Little Things.

I hope this helps you Jen to get to know me better!

1.What is your favorite Christmas decoration?
I love the vintage glass ornaments. I just love how they shine and stand out on the tree. I even put them in my hutch in a bowl or on the mantel in something decorative!

2. What colors/themes do you decorate for Christmas?
I like lots of reds and golds, these rich colors look really elegant. I also do a shabby tree with pinks, light blues. Doesn't matter as long as its beautiful

3. What Christmas item would you love to have?
I would love to have a great advent calender (I've posted on it) but haven't had time to make it. With lots of vintage Christmas images from children books or cards.
I love those feathered vintage ornaments (like the angels etc)
I like vintage magazines (So maybe some vintage Christmas magazines)
Vintage cookbooks, children books


4. Favorite goodie & hot drink?
Our family loves Carmel Apple Cider from Starbucks. We also love hot coco

5. Are you a crafter? If so what crafts do you do?
I scrapbook, I make cards, tags. Love vintage wrapping paper, fabric, ephemera, pom poms anything vintage... millinery flowers

6. What is your favorite pink item in your home?
Favorite? That's hard!!! I have an adorable lamb planter that I love in my hutch. I love vintage planters...they are so cute

7. What do you collect?
vintage planters, vintage ephemera, vintage tea sets, just started a small apron collection, anything really that is cute and vintage! I love CLASSIC Christmas music like Bring Cosby! I like vintage coloring books because I can copy the pages and my kids can have fun. Christian always sees me getting packages and hes sad because there is nothing for him. hahah

8. Do you have special family traditions for the holidays?
Christmas eve we open one present and go to Church. Christmas everyone can open the stockings but that's it until everyone is awake and until the grandparents come over. We always have orange glazed rolls for breakfast or something yummy from panera .

anything else: I have 2 sons. Christian is 3 and Carter is 9 months. We are all from Brasil and so my little boys love soccer!

I hope that helps! Let me know if you need anything else!
Christian-3 years old
Carter-9 months
