Wow, that gown takes me back to my childhood in the 60s...it's beautiful!
Regarding your comment on my blog about painting the armoire. I've gotten so many requests in the past that I put together all my steps for painting furniture. You can find it if you scroll down on my sidebar. The only thing I have to update on there is that some primers do not contain stain sealers so if you have a lot of stain left in the wood after you strip it or sand it down you have to make sure you buy a primer that contains a sealer.
that was quite a find, a beautiful flowing shape and such delicate colours. Catherine x

Hi Catherine! It is fun to time it right and find a vintage treasures. A little soak and it will be as good as new.
