...at the thrift shop.
While we were on vacation, went to a junk shop where I found 5 lady head vases for my collection for cheeeeeep.
and... TADA.... 75 vintage aprons and 60 vintage hankies. Could hardly believe my luck. Look for some on Etsy soon.

We are having so much fun sorting the aprons and trying to decide what to keep and what to put on etsy. Be patient girls, I'm going to be out of town for a week in the Amish part of Ohio but will post pics when I get back.
