Fabric or Paper?

Which kind of napkins do you use most often in your home?  We are paper people, but I do like the idea of becoming more eco-conscious. With so many beautiful vintage linen napkins to choose from, maybe it's time to make the move.  These are a few of the choices coming soon to sosovintage.  I have two of the gray and yellow, and four of all the others!  Are you like me and worried about ruining the fabric with grubby food stains?  For those who can sew a straight line, these can also become excellent throw pillows :)

Friendsgiving

I guess I took a little impromptu blog vacation. Thanks for coming back! I hope all of you American readers had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

The following photos were sent in by a super sosovintage customer. She purchased these vintage faux weave gold napkins from my shop specifically for a pre-Thanksgiving dinner party that she was hosting for her friends.

Atop each napkin are handmade Indian headdresses for the ladies and turkey "gobblers" for the men.

Persimmons, clementines, and heirloom tomatoes make up the main centerpiece.

The secondary centerpieces were created with layers of beans, popcorn, split peas and chili peppers. The china was inherited from grandma, and the amber glasses were collected from local thrift stores.

With so much thought going into each and every detail, I have no doubt that the party was a smashing success. Thank you so much, Ashley, for sharing the new jetsetting life of these napkins!
