Merry Christmas everybody! This is Donna from Modern on Monticello blog again and I'm so happy to contribute to A Glimpse Inside Blog this month and to get a chance to wish everyone a happy holiday. I have so enjoyed contributing to A Glimpse Inside Blog this past year and wish Allison, Jamie, and Rachel the best in 2018!
For my last post I am sharing with you, I wanted to show you my Vintage Truck Christmas Wreath and a few photos of our Retro Inspired White Christmas tree.
I saw where Allison shared a Vintage Truck sign a few weeks ago and I always knew we shared the same taste and design vibes. I hope you were able to read her post but if not check it out here.
So, in the same spirit of loving all things with vintage trucks, I am sharing my recent project featuring a vintage truck sign.
I found this vintage truck sign on Amazon a few weeks ago while looking for retro themed Christmas ornaments for my white Christmas tree. I was participating in a Christmas Tree blog hop and wanted to add more ornaments to the tree. I have seen a green truck version of this sign but really wanted it in the red truck version.
Just so you know, my husband and son are working on a 1960 F100 Ford Truck which just so happens to be red - underneath all the rust - so vintage trucks have been a favorite around our house since before Retro and Vintage were the "in" thing. The vintage truck sign for our house had to be red.
I wanted to keep the wreath pretty simple other than the vintage truck sign so I only added a string of LED battery operated lights and a bow.
I was going to originally hang this wreath outside my own back entrance door - which you see in these pictures - but my son and daughter in law are moving in to our rental house this upcoming weekend. Yes, they are going to be our first renters while my son is away in seminary school next year - and since they are moving a week before Christmas they really won't have much chance to decorate their new home. I have decided to hang this wreath on their front door as a surprise and a housewarming gift.
I am also excited to share with you some pictures of my family's white retro themed Christmas tree.
I hope you have a Merry Christmas and that 2018 is everything you want it to be.
Donna
