  • Heart and Home

    Stay, stay at home, my heart, and rest; Home-keeping hearts are happiest, For those that wander they know not where are full of trouble and full of care; To stay at home is best. ..Longfellow

  • Autumn Fires

    In the other gardens
    And all up the vale,
    From the autumn bonfires
    See the smoke trail!

    Pleasant summer over
    And all the summer flowers,
    The red fire blazes,
    The grey smoke towers.

    Sing a song of seasons!
    Something bright in all!
    Flowers in the summer,
    Fires in the fall!
    ..Robert Louis Stevenson

* Eyelet Dress Petticoats (SOLD) *

September 28th, 2009 at 1:19 pm

Perhaps you are familiar with the company Storybook Heirlooms?  Sad to say, they are no longer in business.  They were a clothing company with the most beautiful vintage dresses for girls of all ages.  I saved my pennies (and it took quite a few of them) to buy dresses for all my daughters.  As girls do, they grew up.  Now, I have these lovely dresses, all gently worn but in beautiful condition, and no one to wear them.  I did put away a few of them (just in case of grandchildren) but I want to offer them to you.

First, we have three short sleeve white eyelet dress petticoats, sizes 10, 12, and 12.  My girls wore them underneath a lovely jumper.  There is precious eyelet on the sleeves, bodice, and flounce at the hem.  The skirt part is plain. The petticoat is 100% cotton.  These look like they run on the small size.  I am offering them for $5.00 each.  Here are pictures of one, front and back.

Second, we have some eyelet half slips, sizes 12, 14, and 16. These tiered cotton slips have an elastic waist and are all white eyelet. I am offering them for $5.00 each. Here is a picture of the half slip.

Third, we have a Battenburg lace petticoat. It is white with long sleeves and battenburg lace at the collar, bottom of the petticoat, and at the end of the sleeves. It is a size 12. I am offering the Battenburg lace petticoat for $10.00.

Shown with the battenburg lace petticoat is a beautiful cotton jumper, size 14. The dress is a nice medium weight cotton.  I am offering the dress for $10.00

Periodically, Little Bear and Me Boutique will be offering more Storybook Heirloom petticoats and dresses.  I’ve placed a section in the right sidebar for the Boutique and items.  Simply click on the page and you will be directed to the post.

Blessings

UPDATE

I’m afraid the Storybook Heirloom clothing items are now all sold.  I will still post pictures soon of a few more even though they are spoken for.  A number of people were interested in seeing them.
