vintage chenille blanket..............................{Grace's Vintage Inspired Room - III}

I'm knee deep coordinating Teacher Appreciation stuff this week - it's turning out so cute! - I'll be back to share more on that, but for now, I have one more sweet little something to share with you.

I found this little upcycled vintage chenille crib blanket and knew exactly where I wanted to put it...folded at the foot of Grace's bed. I love the pale blue background and all the colors in the design and I love those two piggies on that teeter totter - even if I think they look a bit like the wolf in Red Riding Hood! he, he, he I just love vintage chenille. It's so soft and I can't help but think about its original owner. Yea, I'm sappy like that. And I love using vintage blankets in creative ways. Grace's birthday tablecloth was a pink vintage pom pom chenille bedspread. It added just the right amount of texture to create the perfect backdrop for my tablescape. I don't have a close up picture but you can see a hint of it in the photos HERE.

Okay - gotta run! Be back soon!

  1. Oh my! Such a happy and creative place to visit.

    I discovered your blog through Angel's TaDa Creations. I can't wait to see what you've pulled together for Teacher Appreciation Week! As a former teacher, it's always touching to me when parents go the extra mile.

    LOVE your site!

  2. One of my most loved heirlooms, is my grandparents bedspread which is white chenille. Full/queen size. It is put away until a day that I can decide what to do with it. When they passed that is one thing I asked my aunts and mom for.
