Linens for Wedding Gifts

A pretty piece of linen or set of
linens is always a suitable wedding
gift. Brides may get too many
duplicates of other articles, but not
too many pretty linens. These are
highly pretty-and good, as well.
Many older housekeepers will want
to share them, too-particularly at
prices such as these
