Today I’ve got a fun Christmas Gift Guide for all those vintage junk lovers out there! You know who you are…and you also know that you are incredibly hard to buy for, right?! The gifts we junk-lovers want for Christmas is NOT found at the mall or in the Amazon Gold Box. Our loved ones have to dig around in the local thrift shops and antique stores to find our dream gifts. So, instead of making them dig, I’ve assembled a great big list of all the best stuff right here in one convenient spot. Enjoy!
- Handmade Pine Bread Boards
- French Drying Rack
- Solid Beechwood Measuring Spoons
- Barnwood Christmas Trees
- Dirty Annie’s Sugar Scrub and Lotion (these smell incredible and have such cute labels!)
- 5″ Metal Scissors with Cover
- Cotton Tape Measure ribbon on a wooden spool
- 8.5″ Metal Scissors with Cover
- Spool of Cotton Ribbon with Ornament Print
- Arrow Bottle Stopper (I know it’s not vintage… still it’s cool)
- Spool of Cotton Ribbon with Merry Christmas Print
- Wire Pendant Light
- “Life is Very Short” Beatle’s Song Lyric Sign
- Pine Wood Baguette Boards
- Galvanized Zinc Olive Buckets
If this guide appeals to you, you should share it on social media and give your loved ones the hint. I would like one of each, please! I already have a few similar items in my house, so here’s some ideas for displaying them.
A bread board looks great against the kitchen backsplash.
Barn wood Christmas trees fit in any little corner of my holiday home decorations.
I’ve had my “Life is Very Short” Beatle’s quote sign for years, and I love it so much. Such a great daily reminder to enjoy life and don’t sweat the small stuff. This one is not exactly like the one in the guide but it’s close!
Olive buckets on an old crate make excellent plant stands… (and yep, I keep my son’s school snacks in a basket ready to grab-n-go for convenience.)
Currently my bread boards are displaying our gingerbread house village on the kitchen table.
And speaking of these, how about we announce the winners of those two handmade bread boards that I gave away over in my last post? This giveaway was a huge success! There were over 2,600 entries, but unfortunately only two of you can be the winners today. So, are you ready to hear who won the handmade pine bread boards from Scarlett Scales Antiques?

PS– The gingerbread houses are brought to you by the 3rd annual Gingerbread Decorating Party (aka my mom, my niece, Garrett and our newest addition– baby Caroline). Caroline got her first taste of solid foods at the party when she snuck a sprinkle into her mouth! That’s my girl. Merry Christmas shopping, junkers!
Third Annual Gingerbread Decorating Party is going down. Caroline’s face owns me in this picture. She’s like “Oh mama, I could nom on that candy so hard right now.” ? ??? A photo posted by Beth At Unskinny Boppy (@unskinnyboppy) on
