To be fair I just can't call them simply "table cloths". They are so much more than mere cloths and have the ability change the look and mood of a vintage kitchen in an instant.
Now, I know several of you share the same fondness as I do for great vintage textiles, so I thought I would spotlight some of my own dear table dressings.
I have been collecting for about 25 years now and following are just a few that have become the "old standbys" and are very precious to me.
I absolutely adore anything vintage South of the Border so when I found this at the Rose Bowl Flea Market,
I just about squealed with delight...
It matches my little mexican bandido on a donkey so well and it's fun to serve Mexican food with this little vignette.
His poor little burro has the task of carrying the heavy salt and pepper jugs as well, but he is such an adorable little
beast of burden.
I love the look of abstract 1950/60's pinecone design and I found this amazing aqua table cover at an Estate Sale...
The cool thing is that I already had the dishes that matched!
I can mix and match so easily with this design.
Just look how darlin' my vintage casserole dish fits in.
Cocktails anyone?
There is just something about this vintage pinecone design that makes me feel peaceful and happy.
Pink, Pink, Pink, how I adore thee...
Every vintage kitchen has to have a pink and white striped cutie like this one.
Oh, and a Spaghetti pitcher and tumbler set to match...a must have!
I get giddy over pink melmac!
Wowie, how many of you are state proud like me?
I love vintage California memorabilia and I cherish this lovely piece of history.
All of the famous locales are featured here and it's such a fun conversation starter.
Have you ever been to...
Iron out your favorite and spotlight it on your table for a special meal tonight!
I hope you enjoyed today's offering.
It's really fun to share my things with all of ya!
