To Whiten Delicate Linens

A natural Tip To Whiten Antique Delicate Linens

Sophie Lady De Paris Free Shipping Shop

Here's a little tip to whiten your antique linens.

Pour half a glass of lemon juice into 2 liters of medium warm water ( 70 ounces ) then add half a glass of baking soda.

Put your antique white linens into it and let it soak average of one hour.

Then rinse it thoroughfully under clear water.

Rinse it naturally ( no dryer).

I've done it several times and it's really nice to whiten stained antique cotton, hemp and linen clothing and linens!

Happy Natural Laundering!

Folk traditions were "Huge" in France until 1950's. Each region had its own language , cooking, folk, songs , costumes, dance, craft etc... from one County to the other you were leaving a Land to another one with other type of habbits and customs!

France was like a puzzle with various "Kingdoms" which gathered into one Country.

French folk dolls are good symbols and are showing the vast range of these folk traditions.

Nowadays we're still proud of our roots and keeping on but slightly everything is more centralized in Paris. And we all speak French.

I remember my grandmother speaking "Provence language" with her brother !

We're also collecting old costumes to join folk dances. Most of them are handmade.
