Vintage Christmas Cards Vol. 4

Christmas is really all about traditions, even here on the blog, as I have several Christmas time traditions. One of which is sharing a portion of my ever growing vintage Christmas card collection. I really delight in vintage commercial illustration, and greeting cards have always provided some of the warmest, most charming images. This sampling…

A couple stands at a door, with the gentleman knocking. The blonde woman is dressed in a full skirted red dress with black fur trim, and hold holly. Atop her head is a wide brimmed green hat with a red band. The gentleman with his back towards the viewer wears a black top hat, green jacket, and black pants. With his right hand he knocks on the door, with his left he holds a poinsettia behind his back.

A few years ago, I started yet another holiday tradition here on the blog (in addition to my Christmas playlist posts), sharing a sampling of my vintage Christmas card collection, and with Christmas this weekend, and myself wrapping up getting the last few Christmas cards mailed, it seemed like the perfect time to share this…

A photograph of oranges on trees with snowcapped mountains behind makes up most of the postcard. A poinsettia in the upper left, and a golden poppy in the lower right. Text below the image reads "Orange and Snow Capped Mountains." Text across the top reads "Christmas Greetings from California" And text along the left reads "A right good time to you and yours This bright and happy season."

Last year I shared part of my vintage Christmas card collection with you all, and well, the collection has grown, and I’m here to share more with you! I’ll start by sharing the card we actually reproduced as our Christmas card this year… I found it so fitting as a representation of Patrick, myself, and Colonel…

Recently I started collecting vintage Christmas cards, and decided, like many of my other ephemera collections, I should share them with you! Perhaps this will be another Christmas time tradition on the blog, as my collection grows. With this last one I also have to share the inside of it as well, because it’s just…

You all thought you had seen the last of @anaheimh You all thought you had seen the last of @anaheimhalloweenparade content! Didn’t you!? Well this is it for now until next year. We did some reorganizing, found some weird stuff, wrapped floats, threw out some stuff, and then had a little wrap party with burgers from @habitburgergrill . We will still be celebrating 100 years next year as it will be the 100th anniversary of the parade! (This year was the anniversary of the festival) So if you feel like you missed out this year make sure you come NEXT year!

Rodeo look day 3! With snaps take at the Joshua Tr Rodeo look day 3! With snaps take at the Joshua Tree Inn before heading up to Pioneertown because there is NO reception! Psychedelic #QueenOfTheRodeo . Irony of ironies, this was going to be my Dapper Day look, and I’m missing Dapper Day today because I’m here at the Rodeo! Seriously, Orville Peck always takes priority. I’ve never been this in love with a musician (that’s alive! 🤣) If this look seems oddly familiar it’s because @hoodratdiego wore literally the same thing last fall Dapper Day! 🤣 And I didn’t even realize it until I started putting looks together and said “Hold on a sec…” 🤔 And scrolled back through their Insta. So sad today is the last day of the Rodeo but I am looking forward to getting home and cuddling my fluffy boys. Blog post to come!
Day 2 look for @orvillepeck ‘s Rodeo! Was today Day 2 look for @orvillepeck ‘s Rodeo! Was today perhaps one of the best days of my life? Yes. 100%. Not only did I meet Orville, he complimented my Gram Parsons tee, then gave me a rose at the show. And yes, I cried. Orville is not only a talented musician, he has made country music a more accepting place and I’m so thankful for. Plus his Rodeo brings together an amazing group of artists to share in his spotlight!

Because @orvillepeck is having a Queen of the Rode Because @orvillepeck is having a Queen of the Rodeo contest, y’all are going to get to see my Rodeo looks before they hit the blog! I went for an Elvis vibe for day one, with a vintage 70s jumpsuit my friend @simplyadorabell bedazzled for me! The belt is an ancient find from my Portland days. Today was truly magical as I got to hear Orville cover a Gram Parsons song, and I was in heaven! #QueenOfTheRodeo #OrvillePeck

I plan to get a blog post up with more photos, inc I plan to get a blog post up with more photos, including my costume changes! But in the meantime enjoy this snap of me (with my hair still in curlers!) and @andy_anaheim taken by @coppertop.ink ! I can’t believe the @anaheimhalloweenparade is over for another year! Both @patrickarlt and I along with so many other volunteers worked for months to bring this festival and parade to life. I’m so proud of everyone especially @kevinandjody who come up with the cutest and most darling things. They are incredibly talented. After dropping Pat off to move floats at 6:30 am I worked with others to get the festival ready for its 100th anniversary, then transformed into the Candy Corn Witch to help out our beloved Pumpkin Man and Whiskerino the Black Cat, then helped navigate floats to the staging area before transforming once again into a “Flying Disc” inspired by a costume from the 50s or 60s I saw at the @muzeo exhibit to help guide Pat who was driving @_charlesphoenix in one of our new floats. Thank you to all of the artists who vended and made festival and parade inspired works! Follow @beaniemarieart @haydenevansart @jesstasmic @coppertop.ink @showpigeon if you love this parade! And of course thank you to everyone who attended! We wouldn’t do this without you!
