A Vintage Christmas Tablecloth Giveaway




Subtitle: From My Drawers to Yours.

Did you see this coming?


Somehow I’ve ended up with more vintage Christmas tablecloths than I need or can possibly use so perhaps you’d be willing to give a good home to this colorful, old friend?



It measures about 48 x 60” and looks lovely layered over a larger, solid-colored tablecloth or maybe it’s just the right size for you as it is.

I would show it to you on my dining room table but have you seen it lately?

Neither have I. It’s buried under shopping bags, tissue paper, jigsaw puzzles and serving pieces that were last used on Thanksgiving day.

I know. Thanksgiving.



If you’d like to enter to win, just leave a comment.

I’ll draw a name on Tuesday, December 13. This is open to anyone, anywhere in the whole wide world.

And while we’re waiting for Tuesday to roll around, I’m going to introduce this tablecloth to my iron!



Happy Holidays.

xo!  -amy

    Wait a minute, how can you bear to part with the candy canes? If you are sure, I would be happy to give them a home. They caught my eye the other day when you were showing off your collection.

    Wow, you sure are a generous gal!
