I didn’t know how much I love vintage until I found your channel♥️

[@CreativegirlVintage]

I'm so glad Debbie!! Enjoy! So happy you are here

[@CreativegirlVintage]

So happy you like them!! Thank you for watching!!

[@nansanfilippo7035]

Of course, I love this and I do have a whole box of shiny brights from my husband’s uncle. I didn’t know what to do with them, but I’ve been saving them and saving them and now I know what to do. Thank you so much.

[@CreativegirlVintage]

You are so welcome!! Enjoy!

[@cherylmacedo5521]

Flea markets are scarce in these parts. Seems like you have a good one nearby, and generally hit the motherlode. I know that feeling of a racing heart, trepidation….and then the price of $1 ?? Holy mackerel Mimsy ! That’s fantastic. I love your flea market ‘score’ stories ! These ornaments are fabulous !!

[@CreativegirlVintage]

Thank you so much!!

[@loripowell7654]

You need to go super early to flea markets get vintage ornaments. Like when they first open!!!

[@mcadoovicky6465]

I love watching people do vintage crafts online. You must live in the Midwest, because the beautiful stuff that you people find in thrift stores in Goodwill’s and we don’t have flea markets. Here are absolutely amazing. They would never have stuff like that and thrift stores here in San Diego.

[@CreativegirlVintage]

I am actually on the East coast in New Jersey. We are still lucky to have some good outdoor flea markets. It can be hit and miss but I keep going!! Thank you so much for watching and happy new year!

[@jenn1651]

So sweet to see these deer little finds transformed by your magical touch !!

[@CreativegirlVintage]

Thank you so much Victoria!

[@lateshachurney5965]

Super cute idea.

Oh Tami I am in love with these! 💝 I have collected Reindeer for years! 💝🦌🥰😊 So now I am going to start looking for some vintage ball ornaments & little deer so I can make me some of these! I am loving these so much! 😍💝 Thank you for showing us how to make them! You are so talented and I just love everything you do! Thank you so much! 🙏🏼🥰💝👍😊

[@gaylafulenwider6340]

As usual, I LOVE this! Say the word "pink" and I'm there!

[@CreativegirlVintage]

There is something about pink that gets us every time!

[@trishallain6503]

Epsom salt also makes great snow. And it sparkles too.

[@CreativegirlVintage]

Love that idea Trish!!

[@YourAuntB]

This was the first of your videos that I saw and I was hooked. You are so creative! I haven't made a single thing yet, but thanks to your influence, I see potential in things I would've previously overlooked or discarded. You're the reason I can't part with anything anymore... I broke a shelf of figurines and kept the heads and hands! :D

[@karenadams5400]

I enjoyed watching you create. I think I could do that. Thank you!

[@CreativegirlVintage]

You can do it..so much fun. Thank you for watching Karen!!

[@christiblue]

I have several of these that you have made and they are beautiful on my tree!

[@CreativegirlVintage]

[@tinainglima]

Pretty

[@CreativegirlVintage]

Thank you

[@susantasker6120]

Adorab,e! Can't wait to make some!

[@CreativegirlVintage]

They are so fun!

[@terr777]

Better yet, put all the embellishments and glue on the ribbon and preserve an ornament from 1939-1941. One of the first American made by Corning Glass because of the looming war. Look for "Made in US OF A" on the cap.

[@CreativegirlVintage]

Thanks for watching!

[@shirleyschulting8314]

Absolutely LOVE what you do with these. It really inspires me to try these. Thank You !!!!!!!!!!

Bonnie thank you so much for watching!

[@shirleyschulting8314]

Just to let you know, the tinsel you are using in these ornaments is currently being sold at Walmart ! In case you need more ! I was there today Oct. 3, 2021

[@CreativegirlVintage]

Thank you Shirley!!

[@michellemoffett9458]

I enjoyed this so much! I couldn't wait for Christmas in July so here I am looking at Christmas videos online lol. My mom is a crafter and I'm going to send this to her. I loved your murcury bead glass story at the thrift store with the grumpy old man. Haha a dollar! What a steal! I'm a new subscriber!

[@CreativegirlVintage]

That is awesome Michelle!! Welcome! I have many Christmas videos. Enjoy & thank you!

[@cherylhester8170]

I have so many shiny brite ornaments. Your project is beautiful. Thank you so much. I was going to try to paint them with glass paint and use glass glitter. Have you tried that before?

[@CreativegirlVintage]

Thank you so much! I haven't tried that technique. Please share if you do!! Happy new year!!

[@raelynwhitney939]

Can you pretty please do a video of making a wreath out of vintage ornaments and other vintage goodies 😘

[@CreativegirlVintage]

Hi Raelyn, that definitely is a great project idea for a holiday video!

[@raelynwhitney939]

@@CreativegirlVintage yea!! I hope you can do it soon!

[@kellyarnette4897]

Omg they’re beautiful but I can’t do anything with my shiny brites. I’m too attached to them. They’re getting so rare, and some of them are so beautiful and expensive.

[@CreativegirlVintage]

I hear you. I was lucky enough to find a lot of them at the flea markets over the years that are plain, scratched up, or losing paint. All of my really good ones go on the tree!!

[@debbieramey6898]

I love these! Can you tell me where you found your deer?

[@CreativegirlVintage]

Hi Debbie I think it was AC Moore craft store when it was still open. In the past I have seen them at Michaels & Hobby Lobby but you never know what they will have from year to year. Thanks for watching! Happy Crafting!

[@debbieramey6898]

@@CreativegirlVintage Thank you for the tip.

[@andreastieff]

Hi Tami, how big are the little deer? I’m finding 1” size but I think yours are a bit larger. Thank you.

[@CreativegirlVintage]

Hi Andrea..I think they are about 2". I don't have anymore left so I can't measure them for you but probably any size would be cute. Happy Crafting!!

[@nonisnest9718]

Could these be any cuter???

[@CreativegirlVintage]

Thanks so much for watching!
