My family and I love to snuggle up in our favorite old, worn blankets
on these chilly winter nights.
But our cozy, familiar favorites aren't very attractive, are they?
I've been pondering a way to store them during the day for quite some time,
other than stashing them in a nearby closet...
which let's be honest, only happens when company's coming! :)
I found the perfect solution, a vintage market basket
bought at the last Salvage Sister's Show, in Burlington, NC.
A lot of valuable space, which can hold about four throws.
Blanket storage dilemma solved,
and an interesting, unique solution as well!
How have you used vintage pieces as storage?
Do share...
The blanket pictured was a $2 yard sale find.
Like brand-new, someone put a lot of time into the pretty creation.
It hangs outside of the basket to add a little interest.
I found the cute, soft tee at the Salvage Sister's Show, too.
...three must-haves, ...CHECK!
The Salvage Sister's Show is held about every six weeks,
and it is so worth the drive!
But try to go on Friday evenings (check out their site for important details).
The large warehouse of vintage fabulous'ness gets picked over and emptied quick!
My daughter was home this past weekend,
and surprised me with the Orca Cup custom vinyled with a Lilly monogram.
She sells the pretty monograms in several Lilly prints in her etsy shop,
The Southern Brunette 1.
This is one of my favorites!
Hope you all had a great weekend and nice Valentines! :)
