Of all things vintage, linens are my inspiration. Mix them with anything new or old and they lend a character and warmth supplied by nothing else.
They're also extremely practical in decorating. Change your entire color scheme in five minutes.
The promise of spring makes me want my fifties print tablecloths out everywhere, even bedside.
I love flour sack pillowslips with an unreasonable passion. Such cheery prints and colors!
And fancy hand-crocheted pillowcases feel like nothing but pure indulgence to me!
