Back in time...........

After taking pictures of aprons yesterday afternoon, I folded them up and put them neatly back in the drawer. As I did so, I noticed a large manila envelope and I knew right away what it was. It contained a poster that my mother had given me a few years ago and I opened it up and thought.........gotta take pictures and post this. It's an advertising poster for Cinderella (Copyright Disney films 1950) and for fabrics at J.C. Penney's!! It unfolds to about 24" by 36". Double click on the photos to read the text.

I was born in 1949 so the prices shown above are what my mother was paying for fabric for our matching dresses. I loved reading every bit of this! Hope you do, too. I'm thinking I need to make a magical Cinderella apron. Perhaps if I wear it in the kitchen, cooking and dirty dishes will be magically taken care of by my Fairy Godmother. There was a time when I wished for those glass slippers. I thought they would be divine. Wishes change with age! :-)

Here's wishing you a very good Monday and a super good week!
