TWINSLOVECHRISTMAS offers a wide range of Vintage items mostly Christmas related and likely from the 1940s to 1960s. We loosely describe our items as Vintage, Kitsch, Retro or Mid Century representing the things that we fondly became familiar with growing up in the Midwest.
We love to be surrounded by the Christmas spirt all year through decorating, staging or wearing our collectibles.
Sue uses them with her crafting focused on making wearables-headbands, rings and corsages and house decor. Where she can, she does try to revive some of the items that have not been stored well. and update them to their originality.
We have both retired and ready to skinny down the storage bins and unit.
The listings are primarily from our collecting and heirlooms over many decades and it is time for them to be adopted by someone else.
Our passions for Christmas started with our childhood including family traditions of Frasier Fir Real Christmas trees decorated with vintage ornaments and real lead tinsel. My dad would put the tinsel on the tree strand by strand and after the season take each strand of the tree for the next year. My mom would bake many different cookie types and other treats from our favorite cookbook-1963 Betty Crocker Cooky Book.
