Pillow Cases Anyone?


I recently just put into words my affinity or ...maybe... I can call it my HOBBY of collecting linens. When I think about it, it totally makes sense. What makes me feel calm and at peace? A freshly made bed or beautifully set table with divine feeling fabrics. Like cool crisp sheets...ooo that makes me want to crawl into bed now! Cleaning out my linen pantry last week I found I own over 40 pillowcases. There was no need to get rid of any of them, even the ripped in half one is so pretty that I am sure I can use its embroidered design for some project, ha! Got a Garnet Hill catalog in the mail and was ready to pitch it when I spotted these great horse sheets. I SO want to get them for Naomi. (also loving their Hydrangea, Dogwood, Rose Garden and Green Tea Scroll sheets for myself!) They are fun horses with girl colors. That is why I like them so much. We will see if I can find the funds for them somewhere:) She wants a horse and guitar room make over, but I really want it to stay pretty little girl like with flowers. That isn't going to happen so I am slowly converting my bedroom with all her old decorations. Sorry Nate, it is going to get girlier in our room! Here is a shot of all my mostly vintage pillow cases. If you are ever at an estate sale and linens are cheap pick me up a few beauties! This is just my stash of pillow cases and does not include my table linens, eek! Maybe another time.

OOOOHHHHHHHHH! I love the horse sheets too! So cute! I hope you can swing it for Naomi, and I'll keep my eyes open for pillowcases for you... garage sale season is beginning!
