This week I’m happy to offer colorful
FESTIVE HOLIDAY PRINTS!
Holiday PRINT , EMBROIDERY & DESIGNER DISCLAIMER:
All are OLD & USED. If you need new, there’s none here. (Even those with tags I don’t consider new because they have storage marks usually)All (except Designer signed) have been briefly soaked and washed...and hand pressed. Many of the embroidered need a 2nd longer soak. Nothing I couldn’t get out. All minor age related flaws are SHOWN not written. All date from the 1930s-50s. There are some really neat ones I’ve never seen before!
I plan on having ALL THE 100+ HOLIDAY Done and listed this week...then it’s back to NAMES And gift hankies!
As usual, if you need, I will hold items purchased OR I will send a combined invoice IF REQUESTED....and Don’t forget our GORGEOUS GIFT BOXES (search #hankygiftbox to view. .95 ea).
Last year, I had a terrible time with the holiday hankies. I save them all year snd then, as I am doing now, soak & press them for a whole week’s worth of listings ushering in the Holiday Season. I kept checking them as they soaked in tubs and after a couple hours they were fine...I went back the next morning and I gasped....BLEED. I’m talking 40 or 50 hankies....all red or green bleed. It got worse but that was last year lol. So, as you can imagine, I was rather dreading soaking this year. Most dealers don’t launder at all let alone SOAK, but not me. This year, I soaked gently, for only an hour ...then through the washer. They all got much whiter and brighter but deep marks need more attention...nothing I couldn’t get out if I had 5 weeks to deal with them individually. And NO BLEED!!! I’ve got 6 batches ready and will have 3 batches (Designers) left to pressed and photograph. Check the banner on my store for updates by clicking on the little blue door next to my username.
All will go through (1) auction round, then if unsold, price increase and listed as a buy it now. If you’re in love, I wouldn’t wait.
“What does CUTTER”: means you will find wear or fading or both when you see this in the TITLE of the listing. Look closely at the photos. These are great for projects.
Beautiful vintage condition, however See PHOTOS as further description (anything worth mentioning is SHOWN). Fresh to market. What a wonderful thoughtful heirloom keepsake!

#VINTAGE CHRISTMAS HANKY
WHY BUY from thepottingshed...? It's simple. Premium hand procured by me fine vintage handkerchiefs. You know they will be clean, pressed, and given the care they deserve. Period.
We are Your One-Stop Hanky Shop!
DISCLAIMER:
The dreaded fine print: I LOVE selling hankies. I LOVE buying & cleaning hankies. I futz over them before listing. I am not perfect, and may miss something including a random pinhole et al.
Old things well, smell old especially if they aren't laundered. If you are sensitive to any kind of odors...sweet or less than, please, I respectfully ask you accept this disclaimer or find another source to buy from.
I take great pride in what I offer...even then Olde Gals in age tanned, damaged or musty condition. They, like me, sometimes come with a few spots & wrinkles....but are So Cool...like my quirky favorite great Aunt Ruth was. My objective is to establish a relationship with my customers, not deceive anyone intentionally. Shipping companies do their own thing too. Be realistic when buying vintage goods & don't get carried away bidding.
Please come back and visit this space that I simply love. It's quiet here..peaceful. Inspirational. So, make a cup o'joe and spend a moment window shopping. thepottingshed is MY special collection of freshly picked soft goods since 1994. Get to know "me" by following me on Pinterest! (thepottingshedAntiques). We can swap some ideas!
I miss Aunt Ruth...
