Vintage Christmas Monday


Vintage Christmas Monday over at "Anything goes here".
Please find all other participants
here.
Thank you Joan for organizing!




In summer time my husband and I try to visit as many "marchés aux puces" as possible, mostly on the other side of the border in France and Belgium. On one of these trips we found two old floor lamps and this is one of them. My husband repaired and pimped it and I bought a new lamp shade. We paid 10 euro for the two! That really was a bargain. I decorated it with a wreath and a hundred Christmas lights.



And at last this beautiful vintage inspired acorn.



Hope to see you back next Monday.

    Nederland is a nice country to see, the
