The 2nd photo is all vintage Shiny Brite or other similar ornaments. I had several boxes of cast offs I was going to donate but then I saw photos of wreaths others had made from old ornaments that weren't quite perfect anymore, so I wired them to a foil wreath and made my own version.
I didn't know I could. Youtube randomly recommended a video to me showing how to make them. Very easy, only 4 ingredients and a microwave!
I thought they looked old. Awesome idea! I bought some bulbs at a yard sale this summer. It was $6 for 6 boxes. I don’t think they realized they were old. They weren’t as pretty as yours but I like them and they were in good shape.

I have something like 200 more vintage ornaments (1940s-70s) for hanging on the tree, but the wreath ones were "throwaways" since when I buy a box, the condition of the ornaments are usually pretty mixed. 6 for $6 is a super deal!

This is from 2008, can't remember if I've put these ornaments out more recently than that (though I've collected more). The larger tree on left is all vintage, except the topper is newer - still looking for the "right" vintage topper for me. The smaller tinsel trees are decorated with vintage style reproductions.
