I love anything vintage and decorating with vintage cars is all the rage!
I've teamed up with several bloggers to share with you how we decorated with vintage cars and trucks this Christmas season.
Welcome to Christmas Trees on Cars
Until this Christmas season, I didn't have any vintage looking cars to decorate with.
I found this amazing vintage truck on EBAY. It was a great price and in excellent condition!
We had an extra tree from our Christmas village so I tucked it into the back and wrapped the tree in ribbon.
It's got great patina. It still even has the plank sides around the tree area.
I can so see the bed full of pumpkins for the fall!
Isn't my red Ford Mustang adorable! I got it a couple of weeks ago at CVS. It is under a bell dome from Michaels. Bottle brush trees, fake snow and miniature snowman round out the little winter scene. This took no time to put together.
A tiny bottle brush tree is tied to the top of the car with Baker's twine.
A couple of small ornaments in the background.
Old and old looking cars and trucks are a great way to bring a little vintage flair to your Christmas decor.
I wish I had a real one of each!
Merry Christmas!

That truck is absolutely gorgeous, Christy, and I love the entire scene you created around it. So, so pretty! p.s. I just realized your red Mustang from CVS is the same as the one my son got for me! I wonder if CVS knows they’re the go-to place for these. 😉
