More Vintage Finds

Christmas Table Cloth
Picture Book
Vintage Cards
Lace, Polka Dot Apron
I have to say Seattle has quite a few more treasures to be found in thrift stores than Connecticut and New York combined. Maybe it’s just because we have a car here? I am SO stoked about this table cloth. It has a yule log. Could it get any better? Perhaps if it didn’t have stains along the creases from age/cigarette smoking, but they aren’t bad. The cards are in a box that says “Christian Greetings.” They have very funny sayings, like:
“Making special wishes/ That the time is close at hand/ When you’re feeling not just Well again–/ But positively Grand!”
Plus, all of the i’s and j’s are dotted with daisies. How cute!

It’s not just the car, the PNW seems to be thrift store goodness headquarters. NY is a void.
The old cards are getting increasingly difficult to find, good score!

When I was living in Hawaii I never got the whole “thrifting” thing. Then I moved to New Mexico and I must say, location does make a difference.
p.s. I am going to e-mail you a question about posting pictures in wordpress.

no, that tablecloth could not be any better and you’d better hand it over pronto. :)
