thrift of the day

modflowers: vintage napkinsAhh, the weekend! How pleasant! And what better way to spend it than trawling a few charity shops!

Actually, I usually find my best bargains early- or mid-week, when everyone else is at work and the shops have had time to sort through and put on display all the things that got donated the previous weekend.

Nevertheless, there’s still nothing I enjoy more after a few leisurely cups of tea than Saturday morning thrifting.

Yesterday’s thrift of the day was this set of vintage napkins. I’m guessing that there were originally eight of them, but only seven remain.

Now, the question is, what to do with them? ♥

  1. You could make some beautiful bunting with the napkins, so pretty. I love thrifting too, last week I found an Irish linen placemat & napkin set in my local charity shop here in Sydney.
    Happy days!

  2. Oh they were a great find … so pretty … the flowers make a perfect frame … could you add something to the centre, embroidery or applique maybe and then make cushions or out in a frame as textile art … Bee xx
