I bought this vintage tablecloth for fifty cents at a garage sale.
Cannot believe that price. Can you?
I find it just spiffy for my fall table. You saw that yesterday. I hope!

Hello Olive... your tablecloth is beautiful and what a bargain!... think of all the work some loving hands put into that embroidery... xoxo Julie Marie
ReplyDeleteI am having comment issues on my computer today, so if this is a repeat, just delete it. Anyhow, I imagine that took someone a long time to embroider, so why would it end up at a thrift store. But at least it's in good hands now! Love the yellow daisy like flowers on it. I also am in love with your mummy/zombie guy from the previous post!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty!! What a great price. Isn't it sad that people practically give away stuff that someone worked so hard on?
ReplyDeleteLucky, Lucky!!! I love hand embroidered items. So nice. I just cherish all the items I find like that. Enjoy your week. Smiles, Kim
ReplyDeleteHi Olive,
ReplyDeleteI look at those beautiful embroidered pieces and just think about all the time that someone put into making it. Can't believe someone let it go for 50 cents, but I think it found the right home.

ReplyDeleteI love old tablecloths and especially embroidered! very nice and great price!
ReplyDeleteI love vintage linens, too! You just don't see that kind of workmanship anymore! Or should I say "work-Womanship"?! What a bargain!
ReplyDeleteHi Olive,
ReplyDeleteWhat a great find and what a deal! I have a rather large collection of vintage tablecloths..just love the old screen printed ones.
I'm visiting for White Wednesday and I would love to have you come visit with me. ♥
Have a wonderful day,
