Vintage Tablecloths ~ Pink Rose

Here is some interesting info from Kovel's newsletter. Something I didn't know before:




If you collect printed tablecloths from the sixties, be careful washing them. They will fade. The vintage cloths were usually 50 by 54 inches; repros are often 60 by 60 inches.
Here is a tablecloth I have currently available in my Bella Rosa Store.


It is gorgeous...in great condition! I measured and this one is 54 x 64.

I'll have to add a photo of it opened up completely...it has the rose on each corner.

Latest Vintage Finds Are Now Available


It was a great Father's Day, a whirlwind weekend, and Monday came upon me like the Road Runner! (Couldn't think of anything else fast.)


This morning my Dear Hubby watched Dear Bebe for me so I could get the latest items uploaded to the website for you. Summer is officially here and I am excited!
Hope you're having a great start to your week.


Now, it's off to work on organizing the office (a never ending task!). . .
And as always,
