Measuring just 2 inches high by just over 1-1/8 inch wide, these lovely little ornaments might have a second occupation as statues and a third as pendants!

The base is 3/4-inch round and this sweet statue sits nicely and will grace any nicho, shrine, ofrenda or curio. But, there is also a permanent wire self-loop on the back. This makes it easy to use as a pendant or ornament.

Colors may vary. Two ornaments are shown for variation.

SilverCrow's Victorian Christmas Ornament Kit

Our old-fashioned green feather tree looks great on its own, but it will really be spectacular when you add your ornaments. The tree measures 21 inches from the bottom of the base to the tip top and the largest branch span is a bit over 11 inches at the base. The branches fold up easily for storage.

The wooden base is a shabby chic cream with a hint of white and measures about 3 inches.

Just imagine decorating this lovely tree with your own hand-made ornaments!

More Hallowe'en

Here at the SilverCrow atelier, we are quite fond of Hallowe'en all year long. Actually, we're quite fond of every holiday all year long. If we could, we'd decorate for every occasion all at once. Alas, we cannot, but we can help you do it - or, at least plan ahead!

Our old-fashioned black feather tree looks great on its own, but it will really be spectacular when you add your ornaments. The tree measures 21 inches from the bottom of the base to the tip top and the largest branch span is a bit over 11 inches at the base. The branches fold up easily for storage.

The wooden base is a plump roundish pumpkin and remains balanced, despite its shape. The orange of the pumpkin has a weathered look, but you might even want to paint it another color, such as blood-red, for a vampire tree.

But, black is also elegant, so why not transition the base from season to season or holiday to holiday with a tree skirt or some tinsel?

The little tips are a subtle orange, but once you add lots of red, they appear to change to red - at least to us....or maybe we just wanted them to do that!

Black and silver or gold ornaments might even take you into Christmas with this lovely feather tree.

Tiny Chiclet-box retablo with Hats

Our cute little scene is made entirely by hand. There are two little figures, usually a man and a woman with an assortment of hats hanging behind them. Could this be a tiny shop? Or a special museum. You decide.

This little vignette is fully enclosed in a real Chiclet sized box - and some are even former gum boxes! With amazing delicacy, the artisans of Peru have created one of our very favorite items.

Equally perfect for a dollhouse, feather tree, printer's tray display, our little Retablo will become one of your favorites, too.

Add it to a nicho along with your other treasures for a delightful vignette of your own. Each one measures about 1-9/16 inch by 9/16 inch. The little doors on the front close toward the center.

Because each of these little boxes is hand made and painted and all of the figures and items are made by hand, there will be some variation that will make yours even more special. So, please let us choose one for you.

Known as the feathered serpent, Quetzalcoatl has been revered in Mesoamerican cultures since the 5th century. The Aztec culture seems to mention Quetzalcoatl more than others and relates him to the gods of the wind and dawn. He is also associated with merchants, artisans, learning and knowledge. He is quite striking and might appear scary to some, but as a protector to others.

This nice tin ornament has been created by Mexican artisans in the old tradition and then hand painted or adorned. The tin is embossed and debossed for effect and this helps to make him appear as though he is flying.

Our vintage house sets were produced in the mid-20th century by traditional German artisans. Long known for their attention to detail and and precise workmanship, such craftsmanship has become the standard to which others aspire. Their design skills were just as admirable.

Each cute set of 2 houses is connected to each other. Meant for decorating your under-the-tree putz or for creating small dioramas, these little houses were quite popular in the 1940s and 1950s - even just for play.

There are quite a few combinations. We're showing four houses - two sets of two houses to illustrate some of the variation. The largest set is is 2-1/4 inches high by 1-3/8 inch wide. The smaller set is 1-1/4 inch high by 1-3/4 inch wide.

How perfect these would be under a small feather tree! Two sets are shown for illustration.

Really Neat Vintage-Style Tin Fire Truck Ornament

More Firefighting

More Ornaments

So, you ask what's the difference between a Fire Engine and a Fire Truck. Well, some people use the terms interchangeably, but they shouldn't. Generally speaking, a Fire Engine is a Pumper, that can move water from the source through the hose to the fire. The source might be the Fire Engine's own tank, a fire hydrant, a tanker truck, or even a swimming pool or river. The Fire Engine might also carry portable ladders, axes, nozzles and will definitely carry hose. Today's modern Fire Engines are multi-purpose vehicles that sometimes have a permanent ladder as well.

Fire Trucks, on the other hand, are transporters of fixed, permanent ladders, often called Aerials. They might also carry a telescoping platform. Sometimes these Fire Trucks carry limited hose and some of the older ones might even pump, but today's apparatus is much more specialized.

So, this is definitely a Fire Truck ornament. It's permanent ladder tells us the full story. We love this older-style ornament made of tin lithographed with colorful yellow, grey and black accents on a mostly red truck. The model for this ornament isn't so old as you can see by the hood. But it's definitely styled after old-fashioned tin litho ornaments from so long ago.

Amanita mushrooms have long been associated with fairies and elves and even Christmas. After all, Santa has hired elves for Christmas work forever!

These pretty mushrooms might really be toadstools, not to be eaten in the wild - and, our plastic version should not be eaten either! It is rumored that Santa's reindeer pranced around in a flying frenzy after eating these little beauties (the real ones, that is), allowing them to help Santa travel throughout the world and deliver presents.

The little red mushroom caps dotted with white give a magical feel to any project.

The entire pick (with white stem) measures 1-3/4 inch. The mushroom and the greenery are a bit larger in these than in our Amanita Mushroom Pick Assortment.

Mini Green Mushrooms

Old-fashioned spun cotton mushrooms have graced Christmas trees, corsages and other items for decades. These lovely amanita mushrooms are created of spun cotton and made by the same family business  that made the vintage red and brown mushrooms we offer. The company has really gone out of business, but agreed to make some of these green mushrooms especially for the American trade.

These new stock mushrooms measure about 1 inch from the bottom of the stem to the top of the cap and could very easily pass for the vintage ones as the technique is exactly the same..

The green caps are hand stained to look real. They are are highly lacquered and are dotted with little white spots - just like the real mushrooms! The stems are wire wrapped in green paper.

These pretty mushrooms might really be toadstools, not to be eaten in the wild - and, our spun cotton version should not be eaten either! It is rumored that Santa's reindeer pranced around in a flying frenzy after eating these little beauties, allowing them to help Santa travel throughout the world and deliver presents.

Amanita mushrooms are considered good luck in many cultures, especially in Germany. You'll often see them pictured with gnomes, elves and fairies in children's literature.

SilverCrow offers our brown Krausbouillion in generous 1/2-ounce packages. Although silver Krausbouillion is the traditional color used in most older European ornaments, we think that you'll be able to fashion some wonderful newer ornaments with this wonderful brown crinkle wire - especially for autumn and Thanksgiving projects.

The original Krausbouillion is made in Germany and Austria. Ours is made by a modernized process that plates copper wire, so it is less expensive. It's quite beautiful and lends old world elegance to any project.

Trimming a holiday tree became prominent during the Victorian times, and spun glass angel's hair or fairy's hair like this was on of the favorites then as it is now! It adds a touch of elegant whimsy to any display - especially when there are electric lights. The soft glow of the cloud-like hair enhances any lights - either white or color.

Still handmade in the traditional manner by a family company, each bag contains 15 grams of non-inflammable super-fine spun glass fibers. Although such spun glass hair is available from other sources, the German spun glass angel hair is truly curly hair. It does not compress easily and will stay curly. Use it as you would tinsel for special effects.

*****Please be careful when decorating or crafting with Spun Glass products. Remember, they are made of glass and might cause some irritation. Please cover your work surface with paper or plastic to catch any stray fibers and consider wearing gloves rather than your bare hands when using the Angel's Hair.

We are providing a pair of hypo-allergenic puncture-resistant, unpowdered Nitrile gloves, size Medium, to help protect your hands with each bag of Angel Hair.

We had elves like these hanging on our Christmas trees back in the 1950s. Were we ever happy to find these reproductions to offer to you! Each little elf is made of a real pine cone that has been dusted with glitter and faux snow to look more wintery. He's holding a tiny bottle brush tree in one hand and ringing his festive bell with the other.

His face is made of real paper pulp, his arms and legs are vintage-style chenille and the fuzzy beard is made of spun cotton. He's about 5 inches high and 3 inches wide - if you position his arms differently you'll be able to add or subtract a bit of width.

Each is all glittery and can either stand on his little circle of snow, or hang from the attached golden thread.

Although these are mass-produced items, they are each made by hand - and are even hand painted! We fell in love with this little fellow and thought you might, too.

Our vintage Santa Claus set were produced in the mid-20th century by traditional German artisans.

This cute little set of six Santas (or, are they elves?) can be used as a group in a display, or, you might choose to attach each one to a holiday package - won't the recipient be doubly pleased?

Each little fellow is holding something different and all parts are made of wood. Then the little guys were hand-painted, and each has an attached yellow-gold cord for hanging.

Each measures under 2 inches high, so these would be a delight on a feather tree, too!

Although similar items are still produced today, we think these extra special vintage ones will add a touch of authenticity to any traditional Christmas Display.

Each is all glittery and can either stand on his little circle of snow, or hang from the attached golden thread.

Although these are mass-produced items, they are each made by hand - and are even hand painted! We fell in love with this little fellow and thought you might, too.

Chenille pipe cleaners are a staple for crafting and have been for many years! And this little witch was made from thick and thin pipe cleaners and a little scrap head. She is fashioned after vintage ornaments made from the same materials years and years ago!

What we like the most about ornaments like these is the maneuverability! You can bend the little chenille stems in any way you wish. And, since this is a new ornament, you don't have to worry about destroying the value of a valuable antique.!

We just can't get enough chenille pipe cleaner ornaments and other creations! This is one of the best we've seen! Just the way the ribs are formed is exciting enough, but the knees and hips! What a wonderful design. We can't say for sure if this was based on an ornament of old, but it certainly is reminiscent of the ornaments made in the earlier 20th century.

The little skull is a reproduction die-cut scrap just like those of the Victorian era. Although his bones can easily be manipulated as any pipe-cleaner can, we suggest you be careful not to rearrange the bones too much, or it might be difficult to return him to his original wonderful self! He comes with a little string hanger attached to his neck!

We love chenille and these little squirrel boys are one of the reasons why! Old store stock figures like these are few and far to find, so we are full of ourselves when we find them. Each is sitting on a scalloped cardboard base, so they were probably birthday cake toppers or something of the kind.

Each little fellow measures about 4 inches tall with a hand painted spun cotton head. We think he is holding a spun cotton nut, but it doesn't look like an acorn.

Each one is in pretty great condition considering the age. We suspect they are from the 1950s or earlier. The chenille is a bit flat from storage and there is the occasional spot or crease in one of them. We've added a bit of paper grass and placed each one in a plastic display box, making him ever the more special!

None of these have been used for their intended purpose and they were together in a group when found.

Authentic Vintage Authentic German Spun Glass Wheel in 3 Sizes

We at SilverCrow were lucky to find a source in German for real, vintage spun glass components so that you can create Victorian style ornaments for Christmas, Valentine's Day, or just because you want to make them!

These pieces were made by hand in a factory in Lauscha, Germany well before World War II. They are certainly elegantly crafted by highly-skilled artisans who were undoubtedly proud to work.

Spun Glass is a form of fiberglass, so it can be irritating and is not recommended for children. And, even though these are in excellent shape, because of the age of the pieces, we suggest you be quite careful when using them for crafting.

These wheels are traditionally used as backgrounds to ornaments (see our Vintage Santa  Ornaments). We love them, because you can use them for any occasion - use a Butterfly Scrap in the center for a spring ornament! These also make fantastic halos for saints and angels.

Three sizes are available:

EXTRA LARGE Wheel - about 3-1/2 inches in diameter

LARGE Wheel - about 2-1/2 inches in diameter

SMALL Wheel - about 2 inches in diameter

Environmentally friendly straw ornaments have been popular throughout Europe for over a century. These cannot be made by machine, so you can either buy the stars and ornaments - or, now, you can make them yourself! Made from natural straw and bound by thread (no glue), this old-world hobby is quite rewarding. We have ornaments that were on our parents' Christmas trees back in the 1920s and they are as wonderful today as they were then.

This advanced star-crafters' kit will assist you in making your own complex stars to keep as family heirlooms.

Instructions are included, but some measure of experience is necessary for using this kit. You'll also need thread to bind your straw stars. Traditionally either golden or red thread has been used.

Beginners' Kit for Making Old-Fashioned Simple 8-Pointed Straw Stars

More Kits

Environmentally friendly straw ornaments have been popular throughout Europe for over a century. These cannot be made by machine, so you can either buy the stars and ornaments - or, now, you can make them yourself! Made from natural straw and bound by thread (no glue), this old-world hobby is quite rewarding. We have ornaments that were on our parents' Christmas trees back in the 1920s and they are as wonderful today as they were then.

This beginners' kit will start you on your way to making your own family heirlooms. You'll get just about everything you need to begin:

* an 18-page Instruction Book in German, with English Translation
* 2 8-segment crown molds
* a 4-way straw splitter
* 50 natural & 50 colorful straws

You will need to provide thread or string to bind the stars together. Traditionally either red or golden thread is used.

There are step-by-step instructions make it easy for you to make simple stars. The book contains a story describing how the Crafty Mouse invented straw stars

Our striking tin ornament is cut by hand in Mexico and then hand embossed and painted. Technically, it is a Christmas ornament, but we think it is perfect for anytime. Each is different (but the painting and design are similar) as the ornaments are wrought by artisans who treasure the artistry of generations of Mexican craftsmen. The ornaments are about 6-1/2 inches wide, but, because they are handmade, they will vary somewhat in size.

This wonderful heavy-weight golden dresden base is just what you need to create old-fashioned paper ornaments for Christmas, Valentine's Day and more.

The base of the ornament measures about 3-1/4 inches in diameter (from one point to the opposite). The loop on top is for hanging and adds about 1/4 inch more. This lovely dresden is golden on both sides and is weighty enough to be the base for a complex design.

The embossing on these reliefs is superb, as is the cutting. These are made in the same fashion as they have been for many, many decades!

Vintage Chenille Animals

Vintage Chenille Animal Figures

Now, we're not really sure why these were created in the first place, but they are definitely unique! Each package contains a set of four chenille animals: [what we think are] a lion, a cat, an elephant and a long-eared dog.

Each figure's body is constructed of vintage chenille and a waxy-paper face is glued on front. The colors vary, but are mostly earthy tones of rust, red and forest.

Use these as is for package decoration, embellished ornaments and whimsical additions to your artwork....But better still, remove the faces and replace with vintage holiday scraps for extraordinary results!

Finding vintage chenille stems (pipe cleaners) is difficult and can be very expensive! And reproducing the vintage feel is time consuming and results are not always satisfactory, so save time with these little fellows!
