Enough Ribbons for 50 years...

I just commented on a close friend's blog to tell her I have enough ribbons for all of us for another 50 years, and told her not to contemplate getting any from stores. That's probably an exaggeration but now that I look at all I have stocked up in my little store, I think it could be for real (not unless, of course, if I have a lot of ribbon-fan-customers.)







I need a ribbon shelf to store them neatly. I have been toying with the idea of converting one of our rooms into a pseudo retail store, with double layers of top-hung roller shelves displaying all the laces and ribbons, and a long solid wooden shelf for fabrics. Sewing machine on an island work table. Probably another book shelf? Superb plan! Probably a patio to sit and knit? Maybe a balcony to overlook a garden of fruit trees while sketching? Yeah... a new house would work well. ^_____________^

When you have a lot of paper and linen, and no sewing machine, you make...

Linen postcards!!!







Haha.. just a little creation over the weekend. Have a lot of linens in small pieces, and especially love the textural heavy ones!
