Your Christmas Decorations Aren't Dated. 10 Old Favorites Are Back in Style

Stores are full of brand-new "vintage" Christmas decorations right now: tinsel, big colored bulbs, ceramic trees, faded glass ornaments, velvet bows. If you've been decorating for a few decades, you probably have the real ones in a box in the basement. I dressed model homes for thirty-seven years, and every December we decorated them for Christmas.

Free fixes first, and nothing goes to the curb. 0:00 Brand-new "old" decorations 1:34 10. Tinsel 3:06 9. Big colored bulbs 4:24 8. Red and green 5:55 7. The ceramic Christmas tree 7:11 6.
