Lovely vintage decor. Brings back happy memories of past Christmas times.
What a glorious collection. I'm the same age as your mother, so you know the nostalgia factor is huge! Merry Christmas
Yes agree better days. I'm in UK. 68 now
Loved seeing the ornaments and the boxes.Nice music too.
Love your tree...it's so Shiny Brite...❤
Agree with you Scott that C7s are the best bulbs for a tree.
Love all the vintage ornaments.
Good evening Scott 😊love that star.
A few of those ornaments took me back to my childhood. Thanks for sharing and giving me the warm fuzzy feeling.
Scott, so happy to see all the videos you have been posting! You really bring so much joy, fun & laughter to each video you put together! Thanks for making EVERYONE feel like family!
Merry Christmas!🎄🎅🏻
Everything is Really pretty 🎄
OMG ! I Love the way you incorporated the picture of the lady with the pink turbin hat - Hysterical in a Fun way - Love It !
Love her - she's Fantastic dressed in her holiday best.
It’s nice to see theses ornaments are being enjoyed and shown to thousands of people.
Oh my those ornaments 😮 no words ❤❤ thanks for sharing 😊
You have quite the collection. I love that star tree topper. Thinking a bowl of shiny brights might look nice beside that paper tree.
Dear Scott ; Breathtaking! Thank You .
I remember those from my childhood. Thanks Scott for the nice memories. Your tree will look beautiful with them.
Love your decorating videos!
So glad I stayed up.Hooray
Thanks for the memories, Scott.
Thank you Scott for bringing back so many childhood memories.. my tree is done in my grandparents ornaments from the 40s & 50s.. & OF course tinsel! I'm know as the tinsel queen in my family! ..Another wonderful video Scott! ❤
The fringed lamp looks beautiful.The lights on the tree are wonderful.
Are you going to deck the mantle with that gorgeous fruit garland? Hope so! 🎄🌲🎄🌲🤗
Indeed I am. 🙂
Scott, this video warms my heart...lost both my parents a few years ago, they died a few months apart and I miss them terribly. My Dad was born in 1926 & we always had "old fashioned decorations"Now I do. Thank you for keeping traditional Christmas decorating alive. Merry Christmas!
Love the lights and the old ornaments...Please let us see when you get your tree completed...xoxo
So beautiful! Thank you so much Scott for the peace and joy you bring. You are such a light in this world. God Bless you and your family always and may you have a beautiful Christmas ❤️🎄🎁
You have done a fabulous job...one of my sisters lives in a real log house...inside there are a couple cool branches coming out of logs like beams and she hangs different old fashioned lights there and on tree underneath and uses those foil backings.
I like your topper. Have never seen one like it. My Aunt Lois only had red, green and blue lights on her trees. Her trees were especially beautiful.
Can't wait to see what the jeweled icicles look like hanging 😊
The garlands on the window are a pretty touch.
Scott, you should be very good at stringing lights on a Christmas tree since you have been running around in circles for years! LOL 😆.
Merry Christmas.
Everything looks so beautiful! A real blast from the past 🎄❄️Merry CHRISTmas 🎄 to everyone
SCOTT YOU ARE MY FAVORITE CHRISTMAS TRADITION ❤
What a wonderful collection of vintage glass tree ornaments. Thank you for sharing! What a tales they would tell if they could speak. 🎄
The clicking of the bulbs made my day! Thank you, Scott! ❤️🎄
Hi
Just watching your video while I am doing some decorating right now😊
I will make sure to see the rest
Love the shiny brites too!
I have a few
Thanks for sharing
When you mentioned the lights that when one burned out they all burned out you brought back a memory for me. I can still see my dad patiently testing them to find the burned out light. Can’t wait to see your tree completed. ❤️🇨🇦
The lights of my childhood, I remember when the first twinkle lights came out, they seemed so futuristic.
Thank you for joining us Scott. It’s always fun seeing what you have and I love love all those graphics on those ornament boxes and you have ornaments that I’ve never seen before. I really like those swirly ones.!
I am amazed that I have a lot of the same ornaments you have from my 2 grandmothers!! one lived in PA, and the other one lived in West Virginia! Both of German descent, with their German and American ornaments!
Nice! Thanks for sharing!
You are definitely your own comedy show. Hilarious
What a nice collection of vintage ornaments! There's nothing quite like those old Shiny Brite glass indents!
Wonderful video, Scott 👍🏻☺️. I love the old lights. The ornaments are quite beautiful too. Looking forward to seeing it complete 🎄☺️.
The lights on the tree and the boxes of ornaments, wonderful Christmas time .👍😀
You have the nicest collection of vintage ornaments that I've ever seen. Thank you for showing them to us! I finally have collected enough vintage Shiny Brites to fill a complete tree this year. I'm thrilled! Of course, I'm displaying the beautiful boxes, as well.
Love the tree topper!
I have one box of glass ornaments, very similar to the ones your mug is sitting on when you first begin showing them. They, along a with a 1950’s music box manger, are are my greatest Christmas treasures from childhood, passed along from my grandparents to my mom and on to me. Love seeing all your decorations and the old C7 lights. Total Time Machine back to childhood. Thank you.
What a lovely collection of old vintage ornaments….your tree is going to be magnificent…can’t wait to see it! Thank you Scott for sharing your fun videos! ❣️🎅🏼🎄Happy Holidays ❣️
Love the music 🎵 and esthetic. While I would think it unlikely, if you ever were to consider selling the blue Santa and bells ornament at 14:43 mark, I would appreciate having a chance to purchase it. It reminds me of an ornament from my very early childhood and I never knew its ultimate fate. Nothing better than old incandescent
Wonderful! Thanks for the memories xo
🌟🎄🌟Never have I ever seen a tree topper like your's 💝, it's absolutely gorgeous. So many beautiful Christmas ornaments. All your decorations are fabulous 😻as well as your Christmas 🎄. Thank you for sharing 😇. May our Heavenly Father always bless you and your family 🙏, amen💒.
Nothing like the old C7 and C9 bulbs! Loving your tree. Looking forward to seeing finished tree with tinsel. 2 of my 3 trees are well adorned with icicles. So nostalgic and pretty when they reflect the light.
Scott, I’ve watched every episode but cannot always be at your live sales and watch them later. You have enhanced my life in many ways this past year; I thank you so much and wish you a very Merry Christmas! The old ornaments are so precious and will never be made again, it’s always a joy to see them. Your home and sense of decorating is awesome! 🌲😘
Over the moon for your Christmas tree ornament collection Scott! Thanks for sharing❣️🎄
Always have used these lights on real trees and by take down time the pine needles near each bulb ...lamp... would be brown from the heat! 😂
I am totally jealous Scott!!! So comfy, cozy,and absolutely wonderful! I hope Santa puts that Red Ryder under your tree this year! 😊🎄😊
I like the multi colored lights personally. Nicely done ! 🎄
Be careful with the old lights getting hot. They can melt the plastic needles they touch.
Not a problem because I use my old lights on dimmer switches.
Wow Scott, your collection of ornaments are amazing. Thanks for the advice about using a dimmer switch for the old C7s. I picked up two of the old candelabras (each with 8 candles) at an estate sale to sell in my Etsy shop but was worried about how hot they get. So, now I know the trick to keeping them safer. Thanks hon!!
Well!!! Perfectly Lovely!!! The tree will be perfect too!!! It was nice to see the vintage ornaments up close in their boxes, you could really see the beautiful detail and brilliant coloration of them!!! The calming Christmas music, the icing on the cake perfection!!! Thank u Scott, well done!!! Can't wait to see the finished tree!!! Saw Salem!!!💞💞🙃💞💞
Scott you brought back some good memories!! ❤❤❤❤
My parents had a lot of those ornaments from the 1950s and '60s. Quite a few years ago, they were downsizing and had a rummage sale at their house. I stopped by as their sale ended and they were throwing out some stuff that didn't sell. They were going to throw away all those ornaments! In their original boxes! I rescued them from the trash and basically said, "Here! Take my money!" They just gave them to me and couldn't understand why I was so excited about them. But I do love them. So many memories for me. I always loved Christmas just about more than anything. Most of the ornaments were in great condition. Some had paint loss due to the flocking they used to spray the tree with. Do you remember that?? Terrible stuff!
Woke up around 2:30am after a second day of not feeling well. You're video is just what I needed. So fuh. 💛
Hey Scott couldnt miss this video i saw all the other videos all were beautiful homes and beautiful decorations sitting back to look at yours...Minnie
I love your vintage home decor. Love that tree topper....jealous!
I will be looking forward to seeing your fully decorated tree.
Happy 🎄 Holidays!
I love the look of the old bulbs too, but very costly to run nowadays. Merry Christmas!
I had had to say: my Mom used Ice-Glo bulbs. Very mid-century.
What a beautiful collection of ornaments, many like I got from my mother. Unfortunately my kitty 🐈⬛ Maxwell won’t cohabit nicely with a big decorated tree so I’m enjoying them from your video. We put up a tabletop tree with unbreakable decorations. Fortunately he doesn’t bother with ceramic and glass knick nacks. So it does still look like Christmas here.
Thank you for another great video Scott loves your Christmas tree and all the old ornaments
Love the start of the Christmas tree decorating. Can’t wait to see the next video on you finishing it. Your tree will look absolutely stunning. ❤from
Saskatchewan,Canada.
Some of those ornaments look very familiar! Thanks for sharing your collection Scott. Happy Holidays!
Scott, thank you so much for a wonderfully nostalgic video. I’m struggling this holiday season as I just lost my husband of 56 years last month. Your video reminded me of happier, more simple times in my life. Merry Christmas! ❤
I’m so sorry. 😢
@@oldcuriosityshop265 thank you. Your videos really cheer me up!
Love that star on top.
lovely. Them lights are great , fading, and different, white and colour change. I fort that was a new thing now but evidently noy Am in UK
Lovely look dack at Christmas tree decorating from my youth. My oldest daughter has all the family shiney brights and ones she has collected her self they will be on her trees this year as always. I still only buy glass ornaments for my tree. Christmas wouldnt be the same with a plastic ball on the tree.😊❄️😇
Wow, so beautiful old-fashioned Christmas bulbs. I have some old-fashioned ones too. I love them I have a real tree and the old-fashioned bobs is on mine and Christmas icicles thank you for the video greetings from Newfoundland Canada
You were right to say that people used to use 1-2 sets of lights 'in the old days'. Though the cost of light sets had come down considerably since their introduction (in 1904), they were still pricey in the 1920s, and most people certainly didn't overload their trees with lights. Your light sets are mid-century, I believe. 1920s light sets had cloth cords, composition sockets (not bakelite), and used narrower, 'flame' bulbs first patented by Westinghouse in the year 1920. They're still available at auction, many in their colorful, period cardboard boxes! Authentic replacement bulbs are also fairly easy to find (they were still in production in the 1970s). To help brighten your tree in the 1920s, narrow tinsel garlands (NOT icicles) from Germany were a popular decoration.
The first part of the video reminded me of an ol Donald Duck Christmas cartoon, and that’s a good thing. Love the ornaments. Our family had the Shiny Brites and I have some my mom gave me in the last century. Thanks so much Scott for sharing your nostalgia; I really enjoyed it! Happy New Year!
Hi tree pretty also the light s nice house love you merry Christmas love Patricia curry Danville VA ❤🎉😊
Now we're talkin Christmas!..i gotta dig around until i find your Finished tree! Hope you put on the tinsel...that stuff is So Magical......yeah..i have a big set of these old lights...LOVE them...even though the newer tiny lights have a lot of bells & whistles...nothing compares to the old bulbs, imho. I also have some of the newer see thru twinkle screw ins that blink individually & they even have a beautiful pink bulb in that set..& the blue is a deeper blue than the older set. in fact All of the colours are darker...&..i had...a lit tin star...& a ton of the shiny Bright old glass ornaments..just like yours. BUT......but.
i had.......past tense
Not many left now. Our kitty...decided she wanted to decorate the tree...with herself. It was lovely..until it crashed to the ground. Lost a few..but that was not the end..she climbed back into the tree 2 more times..so..ended up loosing quite a few of the glass balls.
i tried tying the tree to a nail in the wall...& that worked..until she decided to climb back in the tree & bat the balls down...what didn't break on impact she chased.
Anyways..many years later...she passed away this summer..so..ima do the Old timey tree again...& im putting her pic in one of the new clear glass balls. So..she can be back in her tree.
Que belleza los quiero para mi 🥰
Love that Noma star!
Cute.
Always use these type of lights, including the small cone bulbs. I am wondering if you have any Matchless Wonder star lights? I have them on my mantle.
That's was fast,please use tinsel they make the tree look like the old days😊
Those modern lights on the tree are horrible.
Love that tree topper!
