I've been trying to find some on the highstreet that I like but I've gradually realised that what my heart really wants is lots of vintage-style florals like this (the current star of my linen cupboard)...
.... and the current fashion for bedlinen just can't match up to those dreams (or those prices - the pink florals cost a mere £4 from a Bristol charity shop).
I've not found any bedlinen I like yet but while looking for some online I found this gorgeous stash of floral fabric:
It's a pair of curtains and some assorted cushion covers. With all my daydreams about a house full of vintage floral loveliness I just couldn't resist it. The boyfriend think's I've gone mad but honestly isn't it just lovely?
oooh gorgeous gorgeous retro colours! xx
ReplyDeleteOoooh, they're gorgeous! I love a bit of vintage floral.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous fabric!
ReplyDeleteI love vintage fabric and charity shop curtains are a current favourite - they're great for making clothes.
they are so lovely - I have started my own vintage floral sheet collection, but none as lovely as yours yet!
ReplyDeleteOoooo - those are very pretty. There were a couple sets of fun floral vintage sheets at my local thrift. I saw them there a couple times and passed them up b/c "I just don't Need them". And now they're gone. *sigh* I think I miss them.
ReplyDeleteNope - you're not crazy - they are very much fun!
Oh my goodness...wehad curtains exactly the same when I was little...flash back!
ReplyDeletefabulous prints - you could incorporate them into a quilt for the bed!
ReplyDeleteI like this !
ReplyDeleteThat's one gorgeous sheet. I have a passion for collecting vintage bed linen. A passion I'm not sure my hubby enjoys!
ReplyDeleteI used to have these curtains in my bedroom when I was a teenager in the early 70s. I had a purple and white tie-dyed bedspread with it. I wanted my walls dark purple, but well... parents and all that! LOL Thanks for bringing back a happy memory.
ReplyDeletePauline - you're very welcome! :D
