It is funny how trends in dishware and linens change. I just inherited my great-grandmother's floral print china from Japan, and although I love it for it's sentiment and heirloom quality, I don't suspect I'll be rushing to set the table with it this Thanksgiving. While we once needed the complete, matching set of everything, it is now more appealing to collect vintage silverware and eclectic serving pieces for their charm and mystery. Table linens once pressed and perfect are now better left wrinkled if just a little stained and tattered. They show more signs of love and memories this way.
This is why we love the look of vintage linen. It is classic in style and gets better with age. No one does this look better than our newly-discovered company from Meulebeke, Belgium who use ecologically friendly practices to weave natural flax into superior-quality table linens. We currently stock their tableclothes, napkins and dishtowels - and plan for more to come!
That is why tomorrow's Wednesday Madness is all about table linens! All table linens in the store are 20% off! Thanksgiving will be here before we know it so stock up early, and be ready to impress your guests this year!
Don't forget Thursday night we will have a table-setting event with an expert in table-top design at our fall event from 4pm-7pm. You don't want to miss it!
