Flea Market Finds ~ Linens Linens Linens



Last week I went to the flea market and scored a ton of lovely linens! 

It was a such a refreshing change of pace 

to find so many linens in this country market.


While I can always find rustic and farmhouse items between 

the guns and chickens, 

it is a bit of a challenge to find such wonderful linens.




Perfect beach cottage tablecloth...a souvenir of Florida from the 50's.




A rare Wilendur(!) heavenly blue morning glories tablecloth.




A vintage kitchen towel with 2 birds on a branch pink damask border.




Pink roses bouquet tablecloth.




Gorgeous cut work runner or dresser scarf.




Another Wilendur(!) ruby rose tablecloth.




Delicate crochet lace trim on this dresser scarf.




Charming farmhouse apron with roses and rickrack.




Another great beach cottage find!




This apron has pink daisies, polka dots and faux lace.


Find these and more in my Etsy Shop!

    Oh, soooooo wonderful! It's not often I find vintage linens when on the hunt, but when I do it's so exciting. Such beautiful tablecloths. Congrats! Pam

      Hi Laurie!

      It was for sale in my Etsy shop last year. The lucky girl who bought it is using it as a throw on her bed!

    Boy, you did find some great old linens. I always hunt for them at the Nashville flea market that I go to. I also raid my mom's house on occasion because she has found beautiful pieces over the years. Thankfully, she shares graciously with me.

    These are lovely. I am prone to the white with crochet but that last one tweaks a memory with those colors of black and pink. I wonder if my grandmother or someone had a tablecloth or apron in those colors when I was young....
