Hello friends, today I want to share with you a few of my special vintage gifts that I received for Christmas!
My brother gave me this cute Irmi/Nursery Originals lamp! It features a little girl sitting in a rocking chair, knitting. A little boy playing an instrument and a little kitty which when you wind up, is musical and makes the little girl rock in her chair.
My Mom gave me this beautiful vintage Madame Alexander Ballerina doll. I love how she came from the flea market with pins in her dress. I don't know what they were for but I thought it was so sweet.
My Mom also gave me this pretty Geisha figurine that we spotted at an Antique shop recently.
My brother gave me this beautiful Limoge powder case that I have fallen in love with!
I was at a flea market in early December doing a little Christmas shopping when I looked up at the top of a case to see this beautiful piece. I instantly fell in love with it!

Hi Lindsey. How loved you must be to receive such beautiful treasures. They really thought of you to pick these out.
Hugs...Tracy :)
Thanks for stopping by my blog! Well you two are the only friends in the whole wide world who I know have got a blog book like mine! Aren't they just brilliant! I have waited over four weeks for it to arrive but I can't you how chuffed I am with it. The photos and text are spot on so brilliantly presented. Also having the comments too mean just about everything to me. What a wonderful gift for you? How thoughtful! In some of my posts I have chatted a bit about my life you know meeting my husband and having my twin daughters I wanted a record for them to look back on I thought it was a good way to record my crocheting too. Now when anyone says I inspire them I always say to myself 'Who me?' I just can never believe something I have done makes such an impact on someone! Well I am truly honoured! Thank you. I've looked back on the posts (I'm still in bed on iPhone) daughter just rang really early and I can't get back to sleep just thought I would check my blog and saw you had left a message! Your blog book is beautiful too! Your Christmas gifts are so pretty I am sure you will have a lot of pleasure from them. You have made an excellent job of the ripple it really is so pretty , the colours work really really well together . Have you made many before? It looks as though you have done a first class job Twyla . Well done. Don't you just love rippling? Do you find them relaxing? I'm doing yet another basket this one for my 'boudouir!' :) yes bedroom not finished yet! I'm really chuffed with your comments and that we have the same tastes! :) I should have emailed you sorry. I hope not to miss any more posts ! They truly were so interesting! Pleased for your successful blog Both of you! Hugs and love from sue in the uk (completely covered with a blanket of snow!) xx
Loved all your gifts. I have MA Ballet doll just like that one.
Hello Lindsey,
Your beatiful stuff makes you happy en your beatiful pictures makes me happy.
I wish you a nice weekend.
dear greetings from Irma
from the Netherlands
You are one lucky girl, Lindsey!I have just loved all the lovely things you and your Mom have posted this week.
Blessings, Sarita
Sweetness! Next time I go to an antique shop, I hope to see an Irmi piece in person! What could be more perfect than winding up a kitty?
I like the pins in your ballerina doll, too. I think her skirt made a perfect little pin holder! It is funny that they left them in, though.
Oh Lindsey, I'm in love with that limoge powder case, too! Uh-oh! You know what that means? It's a love triangle! Hee-hee! Just pickin'! It's so sweet that Jordan knew you would like that. Hang on to that brother! I don't think I've seen limoge pieces in person either... I've learned the coolest things through blogging!
Thanks for showing your gifts and I hope you have a fun week end! ♥
You must get bored of my swooning comments about your latest treasures but these are so cute!!!
Isn't it great receiving vintage treasures as gifts

Lindsey, these are such treasures! The lamp figurines remind me of A Small World in Disney :) I was there right now last year--I wish I was back there, instead of all this snow :(
Isn't it funny. My mother in law does not understand "vintage", so when she asks for a Christmas list from my husband for me and it says, antique tablecloth, or vintage handtowels, she always buys me new ones, and tells me I will like the new ones much better than "used" hehehe! I love the kitty hat head!! So pretty!
Great gifts Lindsey!I adore Madame Alexander dolls.That one is really special.
Have a great weekend!
Lovely!!! :)
What wonderful gifts! The kitty cat looks a lot like Miss Prim! :-) Is it a biscuit barrel? And the powder box is really beautiful!! (These are the kind of things I put on my wish list too.)
I love them all! Especially that darling kitty cat!
Love the powder box.....!!! and the MA doll. I have a few of them, but my mama has lots and lots of them! They are so cute. Just be careful that the pins do not stay in her dress too long as they might rust on the material. Very cute and adorable stuff!
Wow, your family sure knows what you love. All those vintage gifts are lovely. I especially like the limoge powder case.
Have a really fun and special day.
They are all very beautiful ! Great treasures!

What wonderful gifts--you're such a lucky girl--especially to have such a thoughtful family who knows exactly what you love! Thanks for sharing these with us today!
Lindsey, you lucky girl :) These are such wonderful gifts...you are truly loved...not just because of the gifts...but because your family put thought and love into each one :) soo much better than a gift card and they come with a story that you get to discover or make up on your own :) Besos, Rose
Love the little details on the lamp. All your gifts are too sweet!
Kate

Those are all so fun. There is nothing like rolling back time and collecting our found treasures. Your brothers have a good eye for the candy you love. I'd keep them in your favor if I were you.
Hi! I'm new to commenting here but have been quietly lurking for a little while. I love your Christmas treasures - especially the kitty!! You are one lucky gal!
Wonderful gifts! I love the powder case. You are loved!
Wonderful gifts! I love the powder case. You are loved!
I have that same ballerina Madame Alexander! I had forgotten about her until I came across her in a box recently, so for now she's living in my little girl's room.
LOVE that little kitty! What a darling little face it has.
Just one question....can I join YOUR family??!!! : )
Lindsey, I am so happy you have discovered Irmi! They are just so wonderful and so you! I am so happy you saw the post about your pages. Lindsey, I absolutely could not have made these myself. I just look blankly at the BIG sheet of paper. You have got "it" in the talent department! Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart! I just love them! I am going to keep these myself and frame them when I get pictures! E OH! PS Oh my gosh, the Geisha doll - to die for!
What wonderful presents! Lindsay, I was just over at Elizabeth's blog....LOVE thoses pages you sent her! Oh My Gosh! Too cute! We must talk.... :)
