precious items on the move




At the risk of overkill on the whole monogram thing ...
these beauties are about to fly away ...
to a good home, a very good home actually.  They are
my favourites and I simply couldn't let them go with
showing their beauty to my friends.
EnjoyI certainly have


huge monograms, 100 years old, the second one still has 
the embroiderer's chalk showing ... SIGH


And if you'd like to dream and swoon about finding treasures like this, then pop over and see what Karin at La Pouyette found,  but you are warned, it is breathtaking, so make sure you're sitting down before reading!!  Here's a taster ...

  12. Between you and Karin, you've got a main portion of Europe covered for us! Both of you live in magical places, as far as I am concerned.

    Oh- we finally found the right place for the wrought iron "hooks" I purchased from you last year. They are going to be holding up the curtain rod in our newly renovated kitchen. Pics to come...
