Yesterday I shared my Thanksgiving tablescape. It features Lovely Damask Napkins and a Natural Thanksgiving Centerpiece. Lovely Damask Napkins I am always drawn to antique and vintage table linens. I often find them quite inexpensively at estate sales. Recently I bought two large vintage cotton damask tablecloths for less than $1. One of the tablecloths had a few holes in it. That was ok. My plans were to make generously sized napkins from the cloth. Measuring 22 inches across I made ... View the Post
