Types of Collectible Christmas Tree Ornaments

Video Transcript

When thinking about collecting ornaments there is a wide range you can choose from and what I'm going to try to do is show you some of these different choose that you can make. When you get started it might be for a lot of different reasons it might be cause your mother and father gave you some ornaments, your grandparents past on some ornaments, you found some at a tag sale or you had a box light of them that you found in the garage that you didn't know you had that is sometime what spirits people to collect ornaments But in the spirit of collecting you might want to defined what you collect so I'm just going to show you some of the different types just a ornament feel to what you can collect and how much fun it could really could be. So we start we would start right here with ordinary bulbs, stripes, indented, these are the chooses that are out there from the 30s and the 40s, different colors. These are very inexpensive way to start but if you wanted to find your collection with either small or large same type of period larger ornament you might want to think about size. So you would see a lot of these but you would see a difference a very large difference of size so that might be something to think about. Another type of collecting in ornaments these go back a little bit earlier in the 1930s are the berries are some of your earlier ornaments they are very pretty they come in a lot of different colors, very small, but very pretty. You can use these in a number of ways and we would talk about that later but little baskets, baskets come in different shapes, sizes and color, some are earlier then others. This is a rather early one I'm going to show you a few others that I have here that are a little bit larger in size, very interesting but there again it depends on what size ornament you want to collected. Here are 2 other very interesting baskets one is a little bit earlier then the other but very pretty some people like to see there baskets or there ornaments have a little bit of oxidation which means the color has started to turn which I don't want in older ornaments but that is completely subjective that is up to you. So these are our baskets and from the baskets let's take a look at some other shapes that you might want to collect.
