My mother-in-law is the queen of finding treasures at our local thirft shops.
She really enjoys going and is always on the lookout for the latest thing i seem to
be into.
Lucky me!
The other day when i visiting her...and picking up some lovely french
style lamps she found for me (a post about these will come later) i told her to be on
the lookout for burlap!
Burlap she questioned? Really? I said oh yes it is so in right now. Oh too bad she said...
i just threw out a pile of it!!
Oh well... I put my order in too late!
Yesterday i picked her up to go to a local Christmas art show and she had this
beautiful tablecloth waiting for me!
She went to the Sally Ann and there it was! A lovely burlap tablecloth with cute
elves painted on it!
It fits my table perfectly! Aren't the elves adorable?
Hi Pamela,
ReplyDeleteYour lucked in two ways - first to have such a sweet MIL and second that she finds these lovely things for you!
Enjoy your week,
Carolyn
Pamela, that is the cutest tablecloth and burlap to boot! What a find and how sweet of her to give you that.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute. I love the little Christmas elves. And what a great MIL you have to find stuff like that for you.
ReplyDeleteburlap is in, eh? Who knew! Cute tablecloth.
ReplyDeleteIt's so pretty! Great job, Nana!

Dear Pamela, So wonderful to have your mom in law treating you to such lovely things. Must be because you are such a good wife to her son! Love your new header, it's so romantic and so sweet that you still have those shoes. Love, Penny
ReplyDeleteHow darling! I love your new header too. I bet that tablecloth was from the late 40's/early 50's, don't you think? Whenever-it is just darling. Love it! How nice to have a mother-in-law that "gets" it! Hugs-Diana
ReplyDeleteWhat a treasure! Your mother-in-law is a 'keeper' I think! I love your new banner with your Christmas shoes! Angie xo
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool Pamela! I absolutely love burlap. I always look for it in the thrift stores wanting to make stuff with it, but then I'm torn with the thought of cutting it up. I don't trust my creativity I guess. That looks so cute on your table. Love your new banner. (I get freaked out trying a new banner....not sure how to do it)
ReplyDeleteYour mother in law has a gift. A amazing gift. My mom is the same way. She finds things nobody else notices.
