    I’m 70 & grew up with the lamb mold ;older ones were cast aluminum & much heavier. Mom ordered ours with Bakers coconut premiums. She baked regular white cake in each side. Then they were set upright, iced together, then iced liberally and sprinkled with coconut. We had it every Easter(to honor the lamb of God🤓) your guys will love the tradition. Mom also periodically made butter in that glass churn when granddaddy gifted us a gallon of farm milk which was 1/3 cream on the top. Wonderful memories. Elizabeth

      Yes, I’m 56 but can recall being 4 years old and fascinated with the coconut lamb cake every Easter at my Great Aunt’s house…that was an annual tradition and when she passed away, my mother was given the mold as she was the only female in the family; so it’s been some 50+ years that we’ve celebrated every year with a ‘little lamb of God’ cake during Easter. 💝
      The butter churn is very special as well… to know that your ancestors’ hands worked so hard at producing their daily needs is very humbling yet awe-inspiring & priceless. TFS, Andrea… phenomenal haul! 😊

    Thank You for sharing the tree in front of the mirror. It does look like there's 2 trees. The instruments would look wonderful in your Christmas tree as ornaments. I love both mirrors especially the one given to you. Thank you for sharing......Blessings!

    I have had a strap with sleigh bells since my girls (now in their 30s). We hang it from the door knob, and on Christmas Eve, and sometime during the night, we would hear it rings and know that Santa had visited.

    I have my grandchildren's room done in chambray and denim. I use pillow ticking remnants and natural linen for dresser scarves in the room. I also made their curtains out of denim. All my ticking is vintage but you can find it new at Joann's. It all washes and wears very well.

    Rebecca Robeson from Kinwoven decorated one of her trees last year with musical instruments! It was cool and unique. The ribbon you found is beautiful! The lamb mold is adorable! She would look festive with a bright red ribbon and placed in a basket with greenery! The butter churn is awesome! I almost forgot….great steal on the beveled mirrors! This was a fun video! Thanks for sharing.

    Just love this video and that you’re only now getting around to thinking about Christmas! It’s so strange to me how everyone on the internet is so excited for Fall and pumpkin and then rush into Christmas before the leaves have even fallen off the trees! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your beautiful family and can’t wait to see your lovely festive home sometime soon!

    My husband grew up with his mom making Easter cake in a bunny mold. In my search to find one to recreate the memory for him, I came across a lamb mold on Facebook marketplace. I messaged the person asking if it was available. They still had it and told me they wanted to give it away to a good home. It’s heavy, cast aluminum. We treasure it.

    Great timing. I'm going to a favorite thrift store of mine today because their Christmas decor is all 50% off! I love your ideas with the items you bought, and also thank you for the links to other bloggers. Decorating is challenging for me, but I'm a really good copier, so it's great to see ideas from lots of sources. And you are not behind in decorating, in my opinion. I never start until after Thanksgiving. :)

    Yay, a thrift haul!!! You found some amazing items ❤ I am happy you have not decorated for Christmas yet. I know it’s hard being on social media when everyone else is doing it.

I can’t wait to see what else you find in your upcoming vids 😊😊😊

    I love all the thrift finds for Christmas you have found. The little lamb is a cake mold/pan. It is so special to me. My grandmother made us a lamb cake each year for our birthday gift. We have many photos of lamb cakes on our birthday. My sister was gifted the mold, but I found one just like it and was thrilled. I have used it for spring decor and never thought of using it at Christmas. Thanks for the wonderful idea, I am going to use your idea this year. Thanks for sharing.

    In Poland we bake lambs like this for Easter. Also our molds differ a little. Opened on bottom and baked upside down to leave a place for rising dough. We bake mainly yeast dough in it. I make eyes with cloves. Kids are always very excited to eat lamb's head 😉

    Hi ! Loved this video ! I also have my grandmothers churn . I display it and often add a touch of seasonal decor . For fall , I put a small pumpkin inside with a few pieces of dried fall stems . At Christmas, I add a couple special ornaments . You will enjoy it , I know . Also , i think the small detail of color on your little musical instruments adds so much interest . It’s eye catching . Happy Thanksgiving and thank you for sharing . 😊

After I was married I always shopped my grandmothers house, LOL. She always said you ask for it first it's yours and she referred to it all as junk! I cherish what I was given by her. My cousins do as well. I haven't decorated yet either but have been thinking about it. I love Thanksgiving too much :). Thank you for sharing your fun haul! Happy Thanksgiving!
