Thank you for stopping in today for a glimpse of my vintage lace stash & some other little pieces in my collection...
These old laces where once on vintage pillow cases and some day I plan to add them to some of the linen cases we have in my linen collection.
Every once in awhile I take the pieces out and enjoy the texture and work that has gone into them...
Below is a velvet and lace bow that my Great Grandmother Agnes used to wear as a child, I feel so blessed to have it.
I have also been making more lavender sachets for friends and family so I thought you might enjoy seeing them today.
I used some of the smaller lace and fabrics I had on hand, I usually add two teaspoons of lavender to each one so they smell lovely.
Have a wonderful week & thank you again for stopping in...
Hugs,
Wanda

How wonderful you have your Great Grandmothers bow. Your lace collection is beautiful, I just think of who did them, and can see their little fingers working at it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! What a lost art.... Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYou and I are so similar dear Wanda! I love to take the laces out and just enjoy the beautiful workmanship that went into each piece. I love your G-grandmother's childhood bow. How special that it was preserved over all these years!
