New reasons to hate eBay



As if I didn't have enough  problems controlling my white addiction and my overwhelming love for textiles, I just discovered vintage nightgowns and linens on eBay. This is very, very, very dangerous!!! Just look at these early 1900 French linen gowns in pristine condition. The cutwork! The tucks! The hand sewn seams! I can barely type for all the trembling in my fingers.

They are calling my name. I hope Andrew will understand.

Unfortunately, most of the bed linens originate in France and the shipping is a killer. Tempting, but safe to say this is cost prohibitive.

This is modern copy, but you can buy little matching mother/daughter sets.
