My dad passed down a few mid-century wooden ornaments. He made them in college. They were little wood sets that you glued together and painted yourself. I've got to say, my dad did a pretty outstanding job of painting them.
There is a: Dove
Snowflake
Star
British soldier
Camel
Church
Train
and wise man.
He also passed on this cloth owl, which is a bit crazy, but I still love it.
These are all hanging on the mini-tree in the kid's bedroom and, collectively, it's a great look.
lol!
ReplyDeleteNot mid century. Those ornaments me out as a paint it yourself kit around the end of the 70s. ;)
Yeah, the early 1970s would be when my dad was in college, so they're solidly '70s. Maybe more retro than true mid-century, but they still look great on a mid-century christmas tree.
DeleteI have these exact same ornaments! My brother and I painted them in the early 70s when we were kids and I put them on my tree every year.
