I'm so excited to be joining The Colorado Lady's Vintage Thingies Thursday for the first time. I've enjoyed the vintage treasures showcased here and I thought I'd jump in too. I hope you'll have a chance to stop by and enjoy some more Vintage Thingies.
We finally got some gorgeous sunshine today and I was at work until after dark so the pictures are a little dark.
I've been collecting these tablecloths for about 15 years. Most of them have been less than $15 or much less.
This first one I bought at a local antique mall. I just loved the blue ruffled eyelet print and the colors. I just love red, blue, and green.
And can't you just picture the neighbor ladies coming over a cuppa' tea?
This next one was in a box of vintage linens I got at an estate sale for $1. I couldn't believe all the treasures in that box.
The last tablecloth I'm sharing today was my step-grandmother's. It's my favorite. It just makes me think of summer, lunch under the trees, lemonade, and good friends.
Thank you so much for stopping by! Wouldn't you like to come over for a lunch served on one of these vintage tablecloths? Maybe we can one day! I would be delighted!

ReplyDeleteI just found your blog and love it. I went back and saw how you organized your fridge. I think I will do this!! I think it's a great idea. I am not an organized person, but like the way the baskets look when you open the fridge.
ReplyDeleteI love all your vintage table clothes. I have a couple too.
ReplyDeleteReally nice vintage tablecloths. Thanks for stopping by.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog. Yes, we should have just traded walls!
ReplyDeleteI love the vintage linens. It makes me want to get some of mine out. I don't have many but have decided that like pretty china, it needs to be used and seen - not stored away some where!
Have a great weekend!
