vintage postcards
Goodnight! I'm going to cuddle up to this vintage postcard pillow that I found at Flax and Spindle. What a wonderful idea! The card was printed on cotton fabric and than handstitched to the linen 'oreiller' The vintage card is post marked Dec. 22, 1914 and includes a 1 cent US stamp! The handwriting really creams my coffee too!
I would love this in RED though. I'm going to write the seller and see if that's possible. I'll keep you updated!

It has to be the prettiest pillow I've ever seen! I like the subdued color shown here, but would like to see it in red too.
Where on earth did you find this? I can see a huge market for this kind of item. Red eh!
Such impressed pillow !!
Boy, that is so YOU! Red would be nice to sleep on. My bedroom is red...
You are right! I'm swooning over it!
Well, ask the seller to make a discount for a bulk order : )
Don't forget to tell him about the ad in your blog; You deserve a rebate !
Marie, did you know that you can purchase inkjet fabric sheets that you can run through your own printer. You could use a postcard from your collection, change the color to red and print it yourself. I love this idea. I'm putting it on my list of projects to do. (it's a long list)
Love the pillow Marie Isabelle! I think its a must for someone who celebrates vintage postcards! I want one too. Come over to Oasis and look at my daughter's photo...she has a pretty smile like you! <3
Oh I would love of those .. in any color ..
Purple might work too.. Nope .. Red would really match the stamp nicely!
Want want want. Must find job. :)
Hey, that's not a bad idea! Very classy!
If the postcard is simply sewn on, take it off, buy a red pillow and sew it on. Voila!
How beautiful! And perfect for you too.
I tagged you for a Meme = it's fun - stop on by.
what a wonderful blog! SO many wonderful postcards :)
That is so cute! It's so you! I hope you can get a whole set. That would look really neat in your office, don't ya think? ♥ ∞
I love the pillow too! I think it would look good in red; or neutral pillow, postcard printed in red.
I agree with both Steviewren and Starman though - it could be a partially diy project, then you know you have a one of a kind (just like you!).
This pillow is beautiful! :)
Ve ry nice ! It reminds me a little pillow my american friend Julia sent me for my 50 YO. Something is emboided on it :Old Friends are the Best Friends".
I put it on an armchair in the hall and I see it everyday.
I would love to have a pillow like that! Seems so fluffy and relaxing to lay down after an exhausting day. Thank you for stopping by :). I think I will keep the LinkWithIn widget for now. It may appear more slowly than other items on my blog, but seems not to effect the blog's loading speed. Thank you for the inspiration. Best wishes.
This pillow is simply a "must have" for me! So very cool, Marie. I would love to see this in a nice deep warm coral.
That is pretty neat. Have to get one for my sweetheart.
So Lovely!
Now, that's a great concept!
