Vintage Tablecloth: Pink Roses
Today’s tablecloth is truly lovely in every way. Yes, it’s completely pink, and I love it.
The roses go in one wide border around the entire cloth. It measures 68 by 51 inches.
It has a small tag on it, which reads California Hand Prints, which I’m thinking might mean that it was hand printed when it was made. The cloth has a few stains on it but it is just so lovely, and such a yummy shade of pink.
One of my favorite details about it is the white pattern that goes around the outer edge of the roses. Very subtle, but adds a lot of beauty in my opinion. When I purchased this tablecloth online years ago, I didn’t realize it had this white pattern until I received it. I was so pleased!
When I walk into a room where I’m using this tablecloth, it’s always the first thing I see. It’s the perfect touch of happiness on a winter’s day.
Jennifer, I was on FB and saw the post that Eric put on about your Ribbon pillow. First of all, it really is beautiful! Your attention to detail is perfect. Second, I clicked on the link that he posted with the directions for making your pillow, and then spent the next 45 minutes reading your blog! I ♥ your recipes, can’t wait to try the lavender shortbread cookies; and I totally ♥ vintage linens. I have maybe 1 in my “collection”, but still, someday I will have more… I remember coming to your house for one of the bread making classes, I saw some of your linens in a cabinet, and I was holding back diving in, or maybe asking about your linens. Anyway, I think we have a few similar interests in collections. I know you have NO time, and are a very busy homemaker, but I really think we should get together sometime for dumpster diving, or flea market shopping. Just a thought, or maybe a dream. It would be fun!
Keep blogging! I love reading it!
