\nKyll\u00e4 oppii.<\/span><\/span> Sukulaisilta ja turuilta ja toreilta on tullut haalittua kaappeihin vanhoja pellava- ja puuvilla-lakanoita. Moderneihin s\u00e4nkyihin vanhat lakanat ovat usein liian lyhyit\u00e4 tai liian kapeita mutta kauniiden k\u00e4sintehtyjen pitsien ja monogrammien vuoksi niit\u00e4 ei raaski laittaa poiskaan. Nytp\u00e4 keksin mit\u00e4 niille teen.<\/p>\n

Vanhojen lakanoiden koristeellisia yksityiskohtia kannattaa k\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4 hy\u00f6dyksi uusiok\u00e4yt\u00f6ss\u00e4. Perinteisemm\u00e4n tyylin yst\u00e4v\u00e4 saa lakanoiden reunapitseist\u00e4 upeita salusiineja tai kappoja ja koristetyynyn p\u00e4\u00e4llisi\u00e4 mutta rohkeampi voi tuunata niill\u00e4 my\u00f6s vaatteet, vaikkapa hameenhelmat tai puseron hihat. Min\u00e4 k\u00e4ytin sek\u00e4 mummun vanhoja pellavalakanoita ett\u00e4 kirppikselt\u00e4 l\u00f6ydettyj\u00e4 tyynyjenp\u00e4\u00e4llisiin ja keitti\u00f6n pikkuikkunan verhokappaan. Jos ihmettelette miksi lakanoissa on keskell\u00e4 sauma niin se johtuu siit\u00e4 ett\u00e4 kutomakoneet ja kangaspuut (kyll\u00e4, osa lakanoista kudottiin itse)<\/strong><\/span> olivat ennen sen verran kapeampia ettei kankaanleveys riitt\u00e4nyt leveisiin s\u00e4nkyihin (vaikka s\u00e4ngyt olivatkin nykyist\u00e4 kapeampia)<\/strong><\/span> vaan lakanat oli ommeltava kahdesta kankaanleveydest\u00e4.<\/p>\n

IN ENGLISH<\/strong><\/span>
\nOld sheets don’t learn new tricks? Yes they do. I’ve got some old linen and cotton sheets from my relatives and from thirft shops and flea markets. They usually are too short or too narrow for modern beds. But because hand made lace and monograms in them are so pretty I can’t make myself to throw them away. Now I finally figured out what to do to them.<\/p>\n

There is lots of pretty detailes in old bedlinen and you should take advantage of them when reusing old sheets. Friend of more traditional style can make cute curtains or pillowcases of them but if you are more daring you can also use them to embellish your skirt or blouse. I used my grandmothers old sheets and some thrifted ones and made pillowcases and curtain for small kitchen window. If you are wondering why there is a seam in the middle of the sheet, it is because in the old times the weaving machines and handloom machines were so narrow the fabric wasn’t wide enough for double size beds even though beds were more narrow than today. They had to sew two lengths of fabric together to make double bed sheet. And yes, some of the bedlinen were weaved by hand.<\/p>\n

Kertokaa toki omista lakana-tuunauksistanne.
