My purchase from Juan Rosado Antiques & Collectibles, in Cold Spring: a perfect-condition 1950s tablecloth for only $32! I am not a huge fan of our Formica dining room table (which came with the apartment), and think this is a perfect fix, as well as a nice alternative to the lace tablecloth our table usually sports.
(Kendrick bought me those lavender roses the other night when he got home from the studio at 3AM, just so they’d be there when I woke up. Heart flutter.)
