Vintage Hankies- My Latest Collecting Obsession!


Something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue!  What a wonderful bridal hankie this vintage blue lace confection would be! 
They also make darling gifts for bridesmaids, mother of the bride, mother of the groom and grandma too!
....Because doesn't everyone cry at weddings? I'm tucking a vintage hankie in my purse for my next wedding cuz I certainly do!



A while back an acquaintance at my church gave me some of her grandmother's vintage hankies and I am in LOVE! Thanks Chris.. so kind of you!
They are so precious and gorgeous and full of the charm of yesteryear.
Pinterest is full of nifty ideas to craft with vintage hankies ... from curtains to a table runner, embellishing clothing and lavender sachets!

 I had some french lavender buds and these hankies were not perfect... so here are some of the lavender sachets made with the help of my sweet mama at the sewing machine! I adore lavender!
 These will make any drawer more fragrant... especially your undergarments!

So I have been having fun washing and ironing these lovely hankies for sale in my Etsy shops. And, I have already sold a bunch.  And just found the most gorgeous rhinestone hankie at an estate sale, perfect for a bride. Check the links for my shops to search for your vintage hankie!
