I have a bump out garden window in my kitchen that I have never decorated before but when I found the Little RED truck and the vintage toy ornaments, the whole idea of creating a vintage store window just fell into place. Everything in the window with the exception of the truck and the tin ornaments on the tree I already had. I'm really happy with the way it turned out and I hope you will like it too!
So without further ado .... my vintage store window with the Little RED truck!
Here's a shot of the entire window, I wish that bar wasn't in the middle but I guess I have to sacrifice beauty for structure.
Here's a close up of the right side with the Little RED truck!
And here's a close up of the left side. I love the Little flying airplane!
The Little boy belonged to my Dad. He bought it at an auction in the 70's just because it made him smile. I have no idea how old it is or any details about the manufacturer.
A little close up of the tree.
I love the Little cowboy and the Little metal horse below him.
And a few more close ups.
I'll be linking this post to:

Nan, this looks like a window from a department store in the city done in miniature. I love the red truck and how you've used the vintage toys and the flying airplane. Well done, it looks great!
ReplyDeleteNan, I feel like a kid with my nose pressed to the window of my favorite candy store. It's all so delicious! And sweet!

Oh I love how you have decorated your window. What a great place to display your treasures!
ReplyDeleteYour window display was well worth the wait! You mixed old and new things together perfectly, and I bet you spend more time in the kitchen, just so you can enjoy it. I'm also betting that you'll decorate in that window every year!
ReplyDeleteHappy REDnesday!

You shared a very ice holiday showing to day. Loved the red truck.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic window display!
ReplyDeleteI love the way your window turned out too! so cute! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteYou are an excellent window-dresser! I am jealous of your bump-out window because I always wanted one!
ReplyDeletethis is a gorgeous little window ... i think the little boy your dad bought is close to 70 ... my mom has one that is around that age ... i could be wrong ... but it is totally cute!
ReplyDeleteNan,
ReplyDeleteLOVE this window! What a trerrific idea and what a great imagination that you thought of everything to make it just perfect!!
Yes, i see you do have some of the smae ornaments that I do! I loved them the moment I saw them as I thought they reminded of growing up in the 60's when little boys wore coboy outfits and played with wooden planes!
Hugs,
