~ Santa Postcards With The American Flag ~

Happy Christmas everyone!!!! Tallulah and us would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas with your family and friends. Hope your all enjoying the delicious food and the laughter of friends and family.

We also wanted to share a little collection of patriotic Santa's with the American Flags that were made into the design of them. They are postmarked with dates between 1907-1914.



I also wanted to share a couple gifts I received from Ray this early Christmas morning.

The first one is this Victorian stocking with metal tinsel trimming and this German scrap die cut with father Christmas. The stocking is a material I'm not familiar with and looks like it was hand cut into a shape of a stocking. On the back side of it there are some age stains or spots that gives it a little more character.

And at the bottom tip of it is a scrap tree with candles and little glass balls on it for decoration. I was so surprised to get this to add to our collection.

And the second gift was this tinsel scrap ornament with father Christmas and some more tinsel trimming. This might date from 1900's to about the early 1920's.




Well it looks like it is getting time to jump into bed and head off to dreamland. And get some rest for the big day at church and then some really good eating and fun with family and good friends.............Tallulah Today I will be linking up to ~Costal Charm~
