I love seeing young people valuing old things especially Christmas decor.

[@user-ev8cj2ch5x]

Barbs Santa’s are amazing. Love how she displayed them 🎄

[@micdraper3768]

Hurrah hurrah 😃🎄

[@LindaFoyle]

Years ago I was really down on my luck, a woman I know, came along and helped me pay my bills, I was mind-blown, in return I gave her my large Christmas tree that Lit Up, and I had for years. She left loved it, and I appreciate all she help me with❤🙏🎄

[@treasureseeker8489]

UNBELIEVABLE!! ....AND.... SO MUCH FUN!!!! THANKS FOR SHARING!!!!

[@shannon_w.]

My Uncle has a 4 foot white ceramic Christmas tree that my Aunt made back in the 70’s when they owned a ceramic shop. I have a big ceramic tree like Barb’s that my Mom gave me that she made back when I was a baby in the late 70’s. Merry Christmas to all of you ❤️🎄🎅🏻

[@sandratalbert9578]

Barb gotta love her displays!!!

[@rosamerla1534]

Jeffrey your decorating is more subdued , I like your ceramic trees. The nostalgia you have with some is touching. Stella is a Star.

[@gigisfinds-gaylene4193]

Beautiful!! In the 70's my aunt and I made 100's of ceramic trees! So many memories

[@barbsnyder3579]

I was really surprised at the amount of items Barb has!! Just love the stockings that your Grandma made you and Aaron. You should ask her to make Stella a smaller one. I have a Pup named Lady Rose, and trust me, she would sense if she didn't get a stocking. Hahaha

[@MimisTreasureCottage]

I'm so glad you got your grandmas' ceramic trees.

[@lillianwilliams5510]

Love Barb's home and her collection of Santa's and her lighted ceramic chrome trees. I found a pink one and baby blue one in The Christmas Tree Store. but they were cracked. Are these two sister and brother,? Gosh, I would hate to have to store all those collections,after the holidays this was exciting, seeing this video.

[@teresawelborn1360]

Barb I thought you were buying and selling those Santas!!!!!..for you to keep them for display just made my Christmas and your kitchen is so cozy looking. Makes me want a cup of hot chocolate. You and Jeffery have such beautiful homes...those trees and Jeffery Sparkly tree..WOW!!!! I'm sitting here with my mouth open in awe! Lots of great decorating ideas for next year....MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL

[@pamavery9352]

You both have beautiful homes, WOW for Barbs Rushton Santa’s, I never knew she had so many!!!! Jeffrey your home is stunning!

[@christhompson3750]

A lady that taught me to paint ceramics had the molds for 3 different sizes of the ceramic trees. She use to start pouring molds in July and right up to Christmas making trees. Her living room was covered in the trees and the rag clowns that she also made to sell. Everytime I see those trees, it makes me think of Frances. Her and her Christmas trees.

[@kaycampbell8532]

What a fun video! Barb's collection of Santas is wonderful! I have seen those Rushtons but didn't know the name of them. She displayed them so nicely and it's fabulous to have so many variations together! Her house is very cute. I never realized how interesting the paint by number pictures are. I was born in 1955 so of course we used to paint those, so fun! My two favorite things are the antique fairy box (gorgeous) and the adorable, sleepy orange and white kitty💋❤. Jeffrey...your house also looked great. I love all the Christmas trees in front of the hearth. They look so pretty lit up! Thanks for sharing your collections with us!

[@AnnEckhart]

Looks amazing, Barb!!!

[@joancreekmore5754]

So funny.....Barb never seems to buy much when you shop together, and yet she has SO MUCH CHRISTMAS!!! I love it all! Thank you for giving us a peek into both of your Christmas displays. Hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!!

[@lisacates4185]

Barb is a selective collator❤

[@lajunecrockett2381]

My thoughts exactly....she surprised me too I love it all....you just never know

[@wollbullit1632]

Ohhhhh Jeff, please tell Barb, i see this today and i am falling from my chair 😂. That is.......i cant breath. You both are georgeus. I look all videos from you, i am fixed on and i learn so much. Greetings from germany ❤

[@plasticstrawz6901]

I’m blown away!!!! We literally had the Little Golden Christmas Carols book and those little angels who spell NOEL grouped together in one of our displays this past Christmas!❤💚 You have a gorgeous collection!Kindred Christmas spirits!!!!

[@JackieBurnsCreations]

Thanks so much for sharing your house decorations. I loved them. It takes me back to my childhood. I wish I would have my Mom’s putz houses. She would put the figures with them but also used Candles that looked like trees, lamp posts.

[@saraleecoleman4427]

Barb!! Oh, how fun and whimsical!!! What an amazing collection!! Magical!! I imagine your children love this little wonderland!! Thank you for sharing, so sweet!! Jeffrey!! What lovely Christmas trees, and the decor is so magical!! Have a wonderful Christmas with your families!! Hugs--saralee

[@cindytunstall2314]

Thank you for showing us your beautiful Christmas decors! Barb I am a Santa fanatic also, your collection is Amazing!!! Jeffrey your home is stunning as always! No contest Both win in my opinion, I love them both !! ♥️🎄♥️

[@toodleztrinketz7346]

WOW Barb! Gorgeous! I am sad I sold my grams ceramic Christmas tree. it was large white with 4 pieces and a music box. It had flower lights. I thought the people would cherish and they told me they were going to remove the paint and use it for parts. I couldn't back out of the sale sine they drove from Marietta. But the money went for my grandmother's care. Still sad. I love the popcorn Rudolf Ours didn't make an appearance this year. Thanks for sharing both of your homes. Very Christmasy! love them both

[@TheCraftyraven]

Jeffrey, Barb and Aaron, hanks for sharing your Christmas decor, I really enjoyed it! Have a joyous Christmas, Peace!

[@kimeverhart6253]

Oh my goodness!! Barb, I just love all your collections! Your home is so cute and cozy…just right for a growing family! Jeffery and Aaron, your home was just lovely, with the sparkle and the lights. The ceramic trees are just joyful! I wish all of you and your families a wonderful holiday season! 🎄🕊✨

[@jodiely7983]

Oh Barb, your house is just as beautiful as I would have expected. Your Santa collection is the biggest I’ve seen! I cannot imagine being able to keep your little ones from playing with them 🎅🏻 thank you for showing us your personal decorations. My favorite is the pouting Santa, I think he’s mad because he has to stand on the floor! I’m sure you’ve seen the “Crazy 4 Retro” KZbin videos. Peggy and Norm have a beautiful lava ceramic tree. Check it out if you haven’t! Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@winkingowlantiques3422]

Yes, I love Peggy & Norm!

[@ksk5664]

@@winkingowlantiques3422 Oh goodness yes the Crazy 4 retro home tours are the best. Peggy and Norm put so much effort into their home. A real labor of love.

[@gummodude]

[@lajunecrockett2381]

Barb you're quite the collector...I love it all....I have a small collection of Christmas figurines

[@squirrelgirl9155]

OK, so I know I’m late to the party but I’m just watching this video now. I only discovered you all earlier this year. I now understand why Barb shows such discretion when deciding whether or not to purchase any vintage Christmas items. Barb, your house is amazing and so enjoyable! My birthday is on Christmas day and it has always been such a special day for me. Of course my favorite holiday and I’m so happy to see others joining in the cheer that the season brings. Thank you so much for sharing! Jeffrey your and Aaron’s house is beautiful as well and Stella is adorable as usual!

[@mom3628]

Thank you so much for sharing Barb's and your Christmas decorations! Wow and your lights! I think I died and went to heaven! This year we didn't get to decorate. We thought we'd be moved to our new house, but it didn't happen until New Years Eve.

[@tammydubay6066]

Merry Christmas to you all. It’s such a joy following you

Merry Christmas Jeffrey Aaron and Barb❤️🎄

[@linaleblanc8288]

I love that little aluminum tree. I found a big one in my grandmere Rose's attic and brought it home. I can't wait to put it up on Thanksgiving night. I bought a little shotgun house here in New Orleans and I'm only using Vintage items to decorate. It's pretty bare right now, as I'm buying a piece at a time, but I enjoy the hunt. Barb has a fabulous collection 😍 OH wow Jeffrey, your house looks enchantingly cozy

[@lindamasson3094]

I've never been that attracted to vintage kitchy Christmas stuff, but when you see that much all together...WOW! good job Barb

[@cathifamjourney469]

Thank you so very much for sharing your Christmas decorations with us. Barb, I love all of your Santas 🎅 they are so cute. I would leave the cubbard decorated as well,that way you can enjoy the items year around. Jeffrey, your decorations are on point with your style!! The pom pom tree is awesome and I'm jealous of your ceramic tree display!! It's amazing 👏 😍 🙌.

[@dorothyrobdau7365]

How dare you! Stella does too know and barks, What happened to my stocking! And by the way Jeffrey I love your trees, the aluminum looks great with the blue lighting. Wonderful that you honor your grandmothers with things they also loved. Now. Barb, I never knew you had this thing for old St Nick. I rarely see you buy anything. Your mid century home with Christmas everywhere is outstanding. Even though there is much, it all is displayed so warmly. Children must love going to your house Barb. Jeffrey, Aaron, and Barb peace and good health to you all

[@kathysilk2898]

You both have your own style. Both. Beautiful !!!!

[@maineiacthrifter9288]

Excellent work, Barb!! Your displays are true masterpieces !!

[@marggyreppeto-pi6re]

I Just watched this one again. Love it! I have a lot of Christmas decorations and love to decorate. Jeffrey, I am looking forward to seeing your new house decorated this year. Hopefully you can incorporate that beautiful Christmas lighting in your new home. On Barb's shelf in her dining room she has light up Santa like the one my parents had when I was growing up. I've never seen one in a shop.🎄

[@shinybrightsouth1585]

Love all the vintage Christmas decorations. I’ve been collecting for about 4 years now. Watching your video just made me want to go out and find more. 😀

[@barb-jm7990]

I really enjoyed that, Jeffrey and Barb! You two have some fantastic vintage Christmas items! Barb's Santa collection is really amazing! I have a few large Santas, but I added three Baby Santas this year like Barb had on the top shelf. I love it that Jeffrey and Aaron have things that came from their grandmothers. I wish I did.

[@lynnehampton1777]
