I found a vintage table runner back in December while shopping the antique stores for Christmas. I really liked the colors in it, they seemed so cheerful.
It is in great shape and seems to be begging for a summer tablescape.
Right now it will have to wait patiently while we spruce it up for spring. The mug is Lenox, Opal Innocence Carved.
Have you made any great vintage finds lately?

Oh I love it! I would of had to have it if I came upon it!
I have a huge love of vintage linens. I actually prefer them over anything new. This one would have totally jazzed me too. I love the colors.
My most recent treasure is a set of tea cups from our antique mall. They have Paul Revere's Ride on them. I love it.
Beautiful! Love the red flowers too! So cheerful.
Your table runner is very cheerful. I love red anyway so it stole my heart when you posted.
Hi Sherry,
You found yourself a wonderful tablecloth! A cheerful cloth for Spring or anytime. Love the mug! Thanks for sharing this with us at Tea Time and have a delightful week.
Blessings,

Nice colours in your new table runner and you'll be able to use it for some great spring and summer tablescapes.
How lovely. It looks more like a hanky than a runner with all of those shaded colors and delightful little bouquets.
Such a pretty runner! I love colorful vintage linens like this.
I'm loving that vintage kitchen towel! Just can't beat the old prints. Lovely.
I can use cheery! And it certainly fits the bill. The colors are so bright and beautiful!
Hi Sherry! Oh, I love your pretty vintage table runner! You found a jewel and a lovely snap too!

Very pretty. I love vintage linens, although I rarely use the ones I have. I finally took one of my mother-in-law's colorful smaller tablecloths and folded it over the handle on my stove. It makes me happy to see it brighten the kitchen.
Hi Sherry, I like how the reds POP. Also, could you contact me at anna.t@arcadianhome.com? I have a question about the blog. Hope to hear from you soon!
I love my old linens. Yours is just beautiful.
That's a great find Sherry. The colors and patterns sure yell "Happy", don't they? I have wanted a vintage tablecloth or table runner like this for some time, but when I find them locally they are either terribly stained or extremely overpriced. I'm sure I'll hit on the perfect one someday. Thanks for sharing your vintage piece at my party.
I do like your table runner and thoroughly enjoyed looking at your photos. Thanks for sharing.
Oh Sherry,
I am loving those amazing colours. The flowers just add such a really nice touch in the room. Thanks for sharing!

Lovely! I have been "eyeing" some of these on Ebay . . . I love incorporating them even for 'every day' dinners because they make it so special. Love the colors in your tablecloth.
