I love old, vintage and shabby. Give me a white picket fence & farmhouse with chickens, horses and grandchildren any day. I love to garden and watch things blossom. Nature is amazing all by itself. I love "old souls" who know the meaning of life and are willing to share it with you. Watching the waves crash against the beach is better than therapy. I wish I learned how to surf. But I will teach my grandchild. PS. I have integrated my etsy shop into this blog.

If French blue is your color then you are going to love this farmhouse salt glazed pottery pitcher. As a decoration by itself or with faux Gerber Daisies like the ones below. This can be the focal point of your old oak table with vintage doilies underneath.
Watch this video and see how salt glazed pottery is made.

Cleaning Your Antique & Vintage Linens
http://www.emsheart.com/info/linen%20care.htm
Please check out her website she has amazing items for sale. Recently I bought a very beautiful large hand crocheted table cloth. In checking it out for any defects I missed a stain. My bad. So I am going to try one of Em's solutions (the Oxi Clean) and see if this works. I will let you know the results. P.S. I have used Oxi Clean many times on my rugs with wonderful results.
Yeah the stain came out. It looks brand new.
