Ironing Linens



Blogspot had some issues this week and some posts were lost. Here is a repost of my last post. It's more work than a lot of people are willing to do these days, but I just love when I climb into a bed made with fresh, crisp sheets. It just feels extra nice, especially when they have been lightly scented with rose water or lavender.

When I was younger my mom used a mangel to iron sheets--think we still have it in the garage.I know she really liked it.
Wanted to ask you a question about your roses? Do they ever get blackspot and if so how do you treat them? (I thought you might do it organically--I HATE using non organic chemicals anywhere on our property).
Thanks,
Aimee

LoL...I thought I was the only women left in the world that still ironed the linens! Made my day when I saw this post.

Where do you purchase your nice, white, crisp sheets? Around here, all I have been able to find are those flimsey, something other that cotton linens, that last about a year. I remember my grandmother's sheets. They must have been twenty years old and looked as good as brand new. Not to mention they were always so crisp and cool. Loved spending the night at my grandmother's house!

Hello Mrs G. I actually find very nice sheets at Tuesday Morning. Recently found 600 thread count at the same price as what you find at Target. They are Italian and the entire hems are embroidered
