    Back in the 80’s while antique hunting on vacation in the desert, my husband and I were blessed to find several boxes filled with incredible vintage handmade quilts, doilies, linens of every kind, embroidered and crocheted dresser scarves and pillowcases. Huge score! I’ve displayed some of it, but sorry to say most has been stored in the linen closet all these years. I need more ideas! Can you do a follow-up please? Help! 💕

    Thank you for this educational and inspiring video. I love to repurpose elegant older cotton and linen damask tablecloths. You can pick them up for a song at Goodwill. I cut them in half the long way, which makes 2 very long strips. I cut the strips into sections to use as dishtowels! Then I finish the raw edges. Damask linen dishtowels would cost about $20 each at the high end kitchen stores. I iron them and give them for shower and birthday gifts. I made a UA-cam video about this. It's called, Goodwill's Best Kept Secret...from Grandma Bunny.

    • @Carolmaizy
      @Carolmaizy 4 роки тому +1

      You can see dust ruffles on Amazon. Mine lays over the box spring and hangs to the floor on 3 sides of the bed. I got it bec the new comforter I bought didnt cover the boxspring and the side bedrails. People use them to prevent dust from gathering under the bed. The catch is, the dust ruffle itself gets dusty and should be washed at least twice a year. Also known as a bedskirt, it hides whatever you store under the bed. Hope this is helpful.

I was wondering how you'd incorporate them. Also some were kitchen towels and table cloths with the bright red blue and yellow colors (cherries, etc. ) Trying to figure out how to use them. Looking forward to more videos.
