Department Store Vintage

We had Sunday lunch at mom's house (Yes, we're that old fashioned! Mr. Blessing, the kids and I have lunch every Sunday with my parents. I treasure it, actually). Mom had her even-more-old-fashioned-than-me Christmas tree up. I thought you might like to see this lovely old beauty.
It was a display in a department store ages ago.
HOW does she find these things??

Look at that gold-glittered bucket that it sits in!

No snow yet but if you look carefully, there's warm fuzzies flittering about.

    We had snow today going to church but it melted before we got out, honey. I was thrilled because I don't drive in snow. I'm chicken!

    I want to meet your Momma. She sounds like such a sweet & precious soul. Tell her I love her tree! I want a white Christmas tree.
    What precious memories you must have, going home to Momma's on Sundays.
    Blessings to you both this Thanksgiving week.
