French Burlap is Here!











We've all seen the beautiful burlap pillows made by French Laundry sold at upscale places like Restoration Hardware (pictured left) and locally at beautiful boutique stores like Faded Elegance in Snohomish. I've seen them too and lusted after them with gusto! But as a good friend of mine told me today, she went so far as to go to Restoration Hardware with the intentions of finally buying some of these little treasures but just couldn't close the deal. The thought of paying upwards of $60, $80 even over $100 for a burlap pillow is really just unbearable! So here is Touch of Mink's answer to this dilemma. Burlap pillows, some with vintage linen sewn on, some plain with wonderful French images on front. And hold on to your panties....they are $12.95 each!

Wow it was rough being without my internet service for over a week! But it's back up and running now, and I used my time off line to do some great scavenging.

Hand rolled edge vintage silk equestrian scarves-$12 each
Vintage silver plate soup tureen-$12.95 (would look so pretty as a centerpiece with some lovely dried flowers overflowing)
