Vintage Thingies Thursday--Curtain Call

I love love love old linens! I have quite a few old aprons, too, and most of them are all stashed away in a box in a closet. "What a dope!" I thought to myself when I finally had an idea on how to use AND display them! So they ended up as curtains! These are two I have over my kitchen sink.

    Treasures! Why box things up, when they can be enjoyed daily?

    That's a wonderful idea! I'm always looking for creative ways to use and display my vintage and thrift store treasures! I might have to steal this idea.

    What a great idea! They look so beautiful up there. What a shame to keep them tucked away where no one can see them. Really lovely!

    Thank you. I had just removed my Kitchen curtains and decided to buy new. Trying this for sure, so adorable.

    I have planned on doing this for years....and yet my aprons are stashed in a box. I'm going to do it soon. Did you keep the ties on?
