Happy Fall!

It's been a long time since we've posted something new! So sorry for the neglect, but it's been hectic around here as I'm sure you can imagine. We're just starting to gear up for the holiday season...Can't believe summer is already over!! It's going to be the first day of October this Monday, so we're starting the Halloween decorating now! Oddly, as a child, I never liked Halloween much...Maybe because I was a bit of a chicken and didn't like the dark, I'm not sure! Now that I have my own child and no longer scare easily, I absolutely LOVE the halloween season. If you've read my About Us page on our website, you'd know that I'm an absolute lover of the West and in particular, Santa Fe. Maybe it's my love for this area that has sparked my interest and love of decorating with the Dia De Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) paper mache figures, particularly this time of year. There's a macabre yet humorous tone to some of these figures that is fun yet still a little spooky. To learn more about the Day of the Dead, click here. This Mexican holiday is actually a remembrance and celebration of those who we've loved in our lives that have passed on and is celebrated on November 1st & 2nd.


We're exited to say that we're getting a variety of new products in very, very soon and you'll not want to miss 'em. Plus, you'll want to get a jump on your holiday shopping at OnTheCornerVintage.com with products you won't find in most stores! Also, if you haven't already noticed we just added a new category to OnTheCornerVintage.com, and that's our 'Sweet Scents' for the home and body!


You'll aboslutely love these decadent, yet affordable and natural products to keep you and your home swellin' sweet, like our Apples & Cream soy wax candle pictured here. This wonderful, fresh-baked apple pie scent is perfect when entertaining guests for the holiday season. Best of all, because they are made of soy they burn much cleaner than parafin candles.

You can even subscribe to Country Living from our site for only $12.00 for the whole year and get great decorating ideas for the holiday season!
