This is a picture our guest room. Recently, I redecorated so I could feature my collection of baby gowns. Some are little cotton shifts and some are actual christening gowns. I love the sweet cotton that has taken on that golden hue that comes with age. Most of my collection is pre 1930.
I have always loved items that play with scale and these are no exception. Tiny buttons and diminutive ruffles and lace make me smile. Maybe I just want to dress Lulu and Max in them. Face it, I love all things tiny. Dogs, perfume bottles, buttons, figurines and frozen Charlottes.
Today I found more at a fave store and it was all I could do to muster the self control to not buy them all. I started collecting them with a project in mind. Now I cannot bare to sacrifice one to be altered. This means I just need more to choose from right? Well that is my story and I am sticking to it!!!
Ok.. we are soul sisters! As I, too, have the same addiction. And I, too, started collecting them with the thought of altering them! Nope! No can do! They are just too precious.
