Part one of two

As tradition, I've collected a bunch of Christmas images that I liked from various blogs and Flickr accounts. All images have the source linked underneath them. The themes I was into this year were "shabby chic", "pastel Xmas", and of course a general vintage/kitsch vibe. I'm really into bottlebrush trees, vintage ornaments, and fake pink or silver trees. One of my favourite Flickr users boopsiedaisy, has some incredible pictures; as well as a new Flickr user I found this year: twinkleshabbystar
