Happy Nappies ~


Happy Saturday everyone ~

This picture is the calendar that Mr. Vintage bought me for Christmas ~ I just love this picture ~ it makes me smile ~

Another thing that makes me smile is when I find vintage napkins.  I LOVE vintage napkins.  Well, the other day I went to our local thrift store and found these ~


And these ~


And these ~


Each set cost $1.00 ~ I was VERY happy.  I also found these vintage tea towels ~



LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the crocheted scallop ~


I felt so darned good that I bought myself these ~


It was a very happy nappie day ;-)

What is making you smile today?

Can't wait to hear

(((Hugs)))

    Gorgeous tea towels! I've been sewing some towels today, but I won't have that pretty edging. Because I don't know how to do that.

    Cute, cute, cute! :) Love the pic from the calendar...so sweet.
    I remember my mom doing crocheted edging on handkerchiefs but I never learned or had the patience to learn. I know how to crochet, but not the beautiful edgings like your tea towels.
    Thanks for the smile. Treating oneself to fresh flowers is "a good thing"... as Martha says.
    Hugs,
    Babs

    What pretty vintage linens Marianne. I love to find treasures like these and yours were such a bargain. Your pink flowers are so pretty too. I think we should treat ourselves to flowers often. They sure brighten things up.

    What lovely vintage finds! I think I'm living a parallel life. I too work full time in a law office, have one beautiful daughter (mine is 30), two furbabies (one dog and one cat) and a terrific husband - aren't we blessed? I think I'll follow you - just to see what else we have in common! Thanks for sharing your wonderful life. Blessings, Linda
