French Laces on a White Wednesday


Hidden no longer
are my creamy white
French laces.


Once stored away
in a safe place...


Never to be mixed
with just ordinary laces.


I mean....how could you possibly use these?
They are to be admired
just for a bit longer.


Glass Top Shabby Shadowbox 
Home Goods Store
$14.99
Found during a shopping spree before Christmas.


Antique laces from France....priceless.

Sharing with you 
and Kathleen's White Wednesday
at Faded Charm.

LOVE your glass topped box Rhonda, and the price woop-t-do!

And Oh those GORJUS laces - I'm sitting here soooooo green with envy....

I'm like that too, I've got one "special" box with a few beautiful old bits I've bought and I just love opening it and looking at them every now and then! One day I'll use them.

Rhonda
Such a special display and any home would wish to have this.
Those precious pieces of lace deserve to be on display and to be enjoyed and who knows, maybe one day you will find yourself able to actually use them, although then again, that day may never arrive!!
Wishes and thank you for joining my Giveaway.
