Gift Guide for the Vintage Junk Lover
When your significant other asks, What do you want for Christmas? You can send them to this gift guide, full of all the vintage junk things you love (and want)!
Some girls want clothes, jewelry, or even perfume from their special someone for Christmas (or birthday). But if you’re a vintage junk lover? You’d love if Santa parked his vintage pickup truck on your rooftop and brought some of these great old items down the chimney!
So if your significant other is asking for a wish list, send them a the link to this post! They’ll have as much fun picking out something unique for you as you will opening it up! These vintage items are some of my favorite pieces to decorate with all through the year. And bonus…you’ll be supporting small businesses when you purchase!

Thanks for sharing your gift suggestions at Vintage Charm!
Your welcome!
What a great list. My family knows when they’re shopping for me there’s 5 things to be on the look out for – wire baskets, wooden boxes, blue Mason jars, brown transferware, and any thing Edgar Allan Poe. And they think I’m hard to buy for?!
Great list! Yes, you should be easy to buy for;)
I love old corbels, ironstone plates and pitchers, and tarnished silver are my favorites.
Sounds very Vintage French, Cindy; love it:)
I love old linens–even “wounded” ones for upcycling, old clay pots, yard figurines, printer trays, silverware trays, old alarm clocks, clock cases, vintage Shiny Brites, any vintage Christmas decor. As a dollhouse lover, I have always said, “I’m amused by small things.”
Now I’m thinking outside the vintage box–E6000 glue, milk paint, sandpaper, brushes, foam brushes, glue sticks, gift cards to hobby stores, picture hangers and wire, floral wire, small nails and screws, drawer pulls. Or gift cards–craft stores, ReStore, Goodwill, local thrifts.
Yep, you pretty much nailed it! I might sound like Veruca Salt when I give this to the hubs but idc – I want it all! Great list!
Thanks! But I know you could add some to it…if you really tried;)
Faux greenery , bells, doll houses, little stools, trays, deer figures
I love deer figures, too…and dollhouses…and little stools:) Great unique items to add!
Love this specific category! Great ideas!
Thanks! It’s like a “these are a few of my favorite things” kind of list:)
Skeleton keys, glass domes, anything with bugs…
Love how you personalized the list, Mary! I’d definitely add old keys to the list, too!
