It's Blue Monday again and its time to post about something Blue!
The other day I was on Etsy looking to buy some fabric and I came across these very pretty blue hankies for sale. I just couldn't resist buying them, the price was great too!
Here is a close up of each one. I love all the pretty blue delicate looking flowers on them
I love displaying my hankies. In my laundry room I have pretty french doors leading outside to my patio area. I wanted some kind of valance on it, but not one to take away my view of my garden. So I have a rope line running across the top of the doors and I hang my hankies on it and I secure them with vintage clothes pins. Not only am I displaying my vintage hankies but it looks so cute! Here is a picture of one of the blue ones!

I love the hankies and your creative display. I have a friend who used vintage aprons for a valance. It was pretty too.

The hankies are pretty. I remember Mama teaching me to always have a clean, freshly ironed one whenever I left the house.
I like your creative valance. Thanks for sharing your blues. Happy Blue Monday.
I love vintage hankies...what a cute way to display these...

Be a sweetie,

Your hankie collection is beautiful, but what I really love is the way you've used them in your laundry room. What a great idea! I hope you are having a wonderful day.

Hi Anne
I adore hankies. I have a couple from my dad when he was in WW11... I treasure them.

very pretty I love old hankies I have several
Those hankies are so lovely. My aunt gave me a stash that had apparently belonged to my grandmother. Such treasures!
What a clever cute way to display your hankies in your laundry room.
SKUNK UPDATE: My home, ya know the one that always reeks of mulberry essence is now reeking of mothballs. Our tenants the La Pews seem to be enjoying the fragrance contrary to the searches I ran on the subject. 'Don't know why that should surprise me, their dining on rat poison and a delicacy I added quick set cement in and lovin' it. Have a super great day!!!
Beautiful hankies. I love the way they are displayed. I hope you will join me at diningwithdebbie.blogspot.com for Crock Pot Wednesday. Mr. Linky will be up on Tuesday for your link. Thanks for posting.

Those are so beautiful, Miss Ann! My Mother used to carry a hankie all the time and she loved finding pretty ones like those!
