1980 christmas decorations

When I think about what the holidays mean to me, I am always transported to Christmas in the '80s and remember the simple fun we had.

Childhood memories come flooding back at the holidays, reminding of us about all these things we miss from Christmas in the 1970s and 1980s.

You probably know that tinsel is the shiny, silvery stuff that hangs off Christmas trees, but what is it made of exactly? To answer that, we have to look at the decoration's complicated history.

1960's-70's Christmas tree maybe without tinsel because of the cat

Christmas at my grandparents’ houses always felt like a Hallmark movie but in the best way possible. Chestnuts were roasting over an open fire, and hot chocolate was always simmering on the stove. Kitschy reindeer pranced on tabletops, and ceramic Santas grinned ear to ear from their posts on fireplace mantels.

Large lot of 80s vintage Christmas tree ornaments, shown altogether in the first photo. These are all bright painted wooden ornaments, ranging in size from the tiny Dala horses 1 3/4" tall to the Nutcracker Rat King 3 1/2" tall. All are in very good condition.
