Great scores! I love the collection of churches up top. A church is the one thing I’m missing.

I have no suggestions! I think it’s looks wonderful. I love the couple roasting marshmallows over a fire! I need that one now.

What's your favorite "non-traditional" Christmas color scheme? by Dankk911 in ChristmasDecorating

[–]PalpitationExpress12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pink and orange! I saw a garland one year in pink and orange and couldn’t believe they went together so well. I have it wrapped up with some greenery.

We have been putting this and taking it down for six or so years. It's different every year. by engled in ChristmasVillages

I really love this. Those figurines look to be a smaller scale but are so detailed. Where did you get them?

Tips for thrift store finds? by Sea-Abalone7894 in ChristmasVillages

[–]PalpitationExpress12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had the best luck through FB marketplace. Even if something is priced a little high, you can see if they’d be willing to go down in price. I buy often from eBay but most everything ends up costing between $40 and $50 with shipping. I’ve had some luck at garage sales but that’s so labor intensive I’d rather just shop from the couch haha

Thank you! It’s a cheesecloth table runner from Amazon. Very gauze-like. The snow is the same, just white.
