favorite thing

Friday, January 11, 2013

Popping in quickly to share my favorite thing of the week.


 It's a wall pocket thingy,whatsit, catchall that my daughter made me last year. I love it. It's made from a vintage tea towel and the word vintage has been embroidered on to burlap patches. I'm currently using it in my bathroom to hold extra finger towels and washcloths, where it is part of a farmhouse wall I have created. I'll share that another day.

 Linking today with:
A Favorite Thing Saturday

    Hi Laura,
    What a creative and talented daughter you have been blessed with. I love the VINTAGE letters and the tangled threads. They add a cute touch of whimsy to an already sweet piece.
    Thank you for stopping by and I'm happy that you and I are now friends.
    Blessings,
    Carolynn xx
