Round Top: A Touch of Europe's Last Visit


On Saturday La Bahia will open it's doors again for Round Top Antiques week.
It saddens me today THIS will be the last visit for A Touch of Europe here at Round Top.  Not bad news you will be able to buy online but some other additional  business opportunities
so they won't be able to make the semi annual trip.


Mimi and Peter will be bringing a huge shipment of the most fabulous vintage linens scoured from France, Belgium, Eastern Europe........ And they are gorgeous....


Nightwear.....


Lots of Embroidered Sheets, great prices!

Look at this, gorgeous no??????


Oh and did I mention Quilts,and bolster covers....?



This is cute,,a vintage shirt made into a pillow cover.........


Tablecloths, napkins runners........


Tons.


And a HUGE selection of pillow shams........


And unique things like this  a French Bread Bag Embroidered with

What Else???????? It now resides in my kitchen.
So Stop in and see them on Hwy 237 La Bahia antiques fair Opening Sat. Before or After you visit come see us at Beadboard UpCountry!!!!!!!!!! Arte Pura and vintage linens look great together!

More Round Top Adventures, Euro Style, In Search of Linen.....


Nope, Begonias are not part of the wildflowers of Texas. These are in a wonderful floral stand where the 290 loops around Brenham across from K=Bob's Steak House on the way to Round Top.

More from the flower stand......We got some for the shop all orange.......


Bougainvilla gobs of it.........



And then I went up the road to the 237 and the La Bahia Antiques fair on my annual search for European Linens from Touch of Europe. Mimi and Peter always have a great selection and fabulous prices. I shop ahead and they are nice enough to bring my pre selected items out for me....But I like the "Hunt" so I enjoy poking for a few things for moi. They are always bringing out new boxes of merchandise so pickings are always fresh.....




For those who love the French red toile here is a delightful display....


Vintage linen sheets, beautifully monogrammed. Get a plain linen sheet for the bottom and make a duvet.........



Napkins, tea towels and glass cloth.....Feedsacks are in the mix too. This was a whole container load of new merchandise. Whoopee!!!!!



Shams are separated into pairs, and singles and by size.....




And baskets of French soaps.... Always delightful . La Bahia also has home made food by locals, beer, Blue Bell Ice Cream.......
