Vintage Linen Hand Towels

 
As you know, I love vintage linens!! I have quite an assortment of vintage linen hand towels - most of them have embroidery of some kind.
 
This idea came from my Mother.  She did this many years ago and I thought it was so ingenious!  One of those things that made me think "why didn't I think of that"?
 
 
If you have a wall on both side of your stool in your bathroom, simply hang a small tension café rod!  Then put your hand towels over it for show.
 
Smart, eh?
 
Today I had the pleasure of going with Brittany for her 12 week sonogram.  I don't know how those experts tell which end is which, but they assured us they were bunk bed style - one on top of the other.  She showed us their spines, ten little fingers and toes. Amazing.  We didn't do anything like this when I had my son.  Course, that was ages ago!
 
 
They are approximately 4" long and weigh about 1 pound each.  According to the heart rate, Dr. said looks like two girls!  We will have 3 under the age of 3! OMG!
 
Enjoy!
 
Till next time, Judy

  2. Well, we had three under the age of two! Our oldest was 20 months old when she welcomed her twin sisters! There were no ultra sounds in 1974, so twins were not anticipated. We were so fortunate to have no difficulties, and they arrived only one day early! Sending the best to you!

  10. Oh how sweet - two little tiny girls - the fun will begin soon.

    I love the towel rack idea - with I had two walls to do that with - it is so very clever - and your hand towels are so sweet.

  11. Oh, those linens are beautiful...that's a great way to show them off!

    How neat about those twins! Is Brittany your daughter? When I turned 30 I had 4 under the age of 9! No wonder I have gray hair (under the blonde of course!!).

  12. So happy for you! Better get to work on those baby quilts!

    The closest I ever came to twin grandbabies was having my daughter and daughter-in-law in the hospital in labor on the same day!

    I can't wait for my next one but it will likely be a great-grandbaby for me. Wow, that makes me feel really old!

  20. Congratulations!

    My doctor thought my boy was a girl and my girl was a boy from the heartbeat alone. A later sonogram revealed the truth! :)
