With
Sugar Plum Bazaar being less than a week away, I have been busy finishing many items in progress. Among them are my new Vintage Christmas Cloches. This morning I am happy to say, I completed 24!!
About a month ago, I found a few Honeycomb Tissue Paper ornaments at an estate sale. I love them so much, I searched on Ebay for more. I was lucky, not only did I find them, I won 2 of the auctions!
One set was perfect to place inside the small cloches. The other set was a bit too tall to fit properly, but that is okay because I will be keeping those for me (one of the honeycomb tissue paper ornament has a purple hat)!

| I handcrafted 6 of these cloches, purchased a set of 6 Santa Honeycomb Ornaments on Ebay |
 |
| Created only 2 of these. Found 2 of these snowman honeycomb ornaments at a recent estate sale. I have one to take to Sugar Plum and the other one is currently at Pink Attic Cat. |
 |
I created 5 of these cloches with a tiny Vintage Japan Spun Cotton Snowmen also purchased on Ebay.
The Ball style cloches did not have a ball glass top like the the tall cloches. I added a rhinestone ball bead on the top of the cloche.

| Purchased on Ebay. These are a bit too tall for my cloches....I will be keeping these, especially the one with the purple hat. My daughter loves Tiffany blue color so I will be giving her the Teal hat honeycomb snowman. |

| I created 4 of these sweet girl deer cloches. I found these deer at my friend Amy's shop, Pink Attic Cat while helping her get ready for her Grand Re-opening and Holiday Open House a week ago.

One of each of the vintage cloches featured above is now available at the
Pink Attic Cat in downtown Littleton, located at 5784 S. Rapp (behind the Old Mills Restaurant). Yesterday morning I only had those ready. Last night I finished the rest of them, including 9 one of a kind cloches with vintage Christmas treasure inside. I will try to photograph and post them tomorrow.
