I love to find a bargain after the holidays! I admired this beautiful wreath adorned with 1950's ornaments before Christmas and I could not justify spending the money although it was well worth the asking price in my opinion. My waiting paid off this time around. I got it for 1/2 price after Christmas and I felt a little guilty. My sister counted over 60 ornaments on it and we found many that were similar to the ones on our tree when we were girls. Downside-- it is so fragile. I lost one ornament on the drive home! I will need to pack it away very carefully after I am finished enjoying its sparkly splendor!!
Love them....Looks like the one at the very top is just like one I posted from my childhood, in the very first pic
