Antiques....

This is...very sadly....another one of my collections.  I am fairly certain that to some this pile of wound up fibers could resemble earthworms or just about anything if you let your imagination wander.  The unopened package in the center is a dead give away....CONTROL TOP (of course), sheer, sandal foot pantyhose.  
I am cleaning.  When it is 100 degrees out I tend to do that.  That way I can avoid anything that takes me outside.  Today while my grandchild napped, I cleaned drawers and much to my surprise, I found that I had three dresser drawers dedicated to pantyhose.  I have every shade from suntan to white.  That includes shades of grey and blue because I am certain that once in my lifetime I had a baby blue outfit that needed matching hose.
Sadly I guess no one bothered to tell me that NO ONE wears hose anymore.  It is a fashion faux paux. 
It is a giant blunder even at the most formal events...so I am told NOW.
So I sorted and matched and paired up even my knee highs.  It took awhile.  I did discard some....mainly those in the white/off white category because I am certain that I will never have a reason to wear anything with that shade again.  The others are safely stored away in just two drawers now.  Why...because I am sure they will make a comeback....along with bell bottoms and polyester leisure suits!
