Christmas Ornaments

We had plastic ornaments like these on our tree every year.

Dick Nolan's Atlantic Christmas Record

Another Christmas record we owned, Dick Nolan was a Newfoundland singer.

Angel Ornaments

We had 1 or 2 angel ornaments like these but I can't remember what colour. At least I think we had them. If we didn't then my aunt next door did.

Snowmen Ornaments

I like looking through vintage Christmas ornaments on Ebay, there's always something there that we owned. We had snowmen ornaments like the 2 smiling ones in the middle of this picture.

Eaton's Christmas Catalogue

An Eaton's catalogue from 1975, I distinctly remember this cover, I was 9 years old and I probably wanted that dress.

Angels

We had angel ornaments like these, little angel heads on chenille stems. We would stick them on the tree.

Catherine McKinnon, I'll Be Home For Christmas

Another Christmas record we owned, I remember liking this one a lot.

Santa Candles

My aunt had these candles and put them out every year but she never lit them.

Elf Snow Globe

We had an elf snowglobe like this, I have no idea where it came from. But ours was only partly filled with water just like this one.

Santa Boot

This Santa boot would be filled with hard candy and sit on the end table in the living room. It wasn't Christmas without it!

Christmas Record

This was one of the few Christmas records we owned.....Wilf Carter's "Christmas in Canada".

Santa Lights

This hung in our kitchen window every Christmas. The lights blinked off and on.

Angel Pin

My sister got this angel pin the same Christmas that I got the little drummer boy pin.

Little Drummer Boy Pin

I think my aunt gave me this one year for Christmas.

The Littlest Snowman

This was my sister's book. I don't remember all of the story, something about children putting out tubs of ice cream because there was no snow and after it blows around and makes snow drifts they make "snowmen" out of ice cream.

Dog Nutcracker

This nutcracker was heavy, I think it was made from solid iron. We only used it at Christmas time, I guess because that's the only time we had nuts to crack.

Karen

How many people got to read a book with their name as the title? I did, I remember checking this out from the school library when I was in grade 7.

Paint by Number

I would imagine every kid had a paint by number set. My sister had this set and her painting was so neat. Mine always looked like blobs.

Mother Hen Target Game

This was my younger brother's. If you hit the target with the gun (that shot little plungers) the hen would lay an egg. Cute game.

Rainbow Garden

This was my older sister's book. It was about a young girl who's parents were too rich and busy to look after her. They lived in an apartment in the city and they sent her to live with cousins in the country. It was a nice book.
