Here is a basket with my vintage glass ornaments that are blue.
My kissy-face blue angel is made out of 2 satin balls attached to each other. She has a little vest outlined in gold, a gold bead necklace and gold sequins for buttons. Her wings are a little beat up, but this is her 40th Christmas, so I think we're doing pretty good. If you visited on Pink Saturday you've already seen my sister's pink angel, but you won't be seeing her green felt Santa that was a gift when I received this blue one from our aunt, the year after the angels.
These ornaments are not that old, except for Smurf, of course. He was one of the first gifts my sister purchased for me herself, and it's a great reminder of that era of my childhood. I can still whistle the Smurf theme! The other two are a dunkin Donuts munchkin box and a teacher ornament I received as a gift. I like it because it is Christmasy with the Santa mouse, but schoolish because of the map, since I teach geography. On the back is the name of the child who gave it to me and the year. If a child has their name on their gift, I keep it, no matter how weird it may be. I have magnets, mugs, pottery, all of which I've found a place for because some child picked it out or made it him/herself and signed it.To see more blue items, visit Smiling Sally to see the list of everyone participating this week.

Very pretty ornaments! I was just thinking about a blue cupcake soap to add to my site. Happy Monday.
I have very few blue ornaments on my tree; you have quite a good collection. I like that blue Santa, too!
As a high school teacher, I did not get many gifts. Teachers of elementary and middle school teachers rake it in! Happy Blue Monday!
I love that blue Santa , I've never seen one like that before. Where do you get all your vintage decorations? They are so much fun to see.
Hugs,

I love blue ornaments and lights too! I've never in my life seen a blue Santa. That's so unusual and interesting! I need one.
It's amazing what blue does to a tree! Thanks for sharing! Have a happy Monday. I'm off the work. Try to stay out of trouble.
I love the old ornamnets...looking back at them always reminds you of where you were at... at that time of your life! We have some Smurfs too!

If you are going to have a blue Christmas, that's the way to do it! I love the Santa- he is really styling!
I loved your blues...and your story is wonderful. Happy Blues and have a great week.
The blue smurf ornament made me smile. It brings me back to my childhood.
All of your blue ornaments are precious but I love that little smurf guy the best. Happy blue Monday!
Smurfs.
Most pregnant women get a little crazy now and then, but my first ex wife and I were waiting for my eldest when the Smurfs burst on the scene. And one of the local supermarkets was selling their first LP for something like $1.99 with a $10 or more purchase. Or something like that. I.Got.No.Peace. until I had procured said album.
To this day I twitch every time I see one of those smurfing little blue ... people.
Hi Elizabeth! I'm lovin' that smurf! Hope you are having a Happy Blue Monday! ~ Robyn
Loads of blue accents on that tree. So cute.
I love your vintage blues!!! I would love to have some, but the big fluffy kitten thinks the tree is his, & we would have glass everywhere!
Thanks for stopping by my Blue Christmas blog!
Looks like a beautiful collection, I love all the blue shades. :)
