Sweet and simple saturday:
A floppy wool hat from the thrift store, plus a yard or so of wide silver trim…. And voila! A VERY chic tricorne hat!

A week and a bit ago the Hemwick Regency Society met for its inaugural picnice!
I wore my green floral round gown, but i added all new accessories - gloves, chemisette, jewels, shawl, reticule and big straw hat. I also busted out a less visible accessory: my heavy winter petticoat!

Here’s my latest evening project: a Jellyfish. With a little more whip-gathering it will be an early regency cap!

Meet Beryl. Beryl and i met in a local thrift shop. Currently we are exploring the wonderful world of solvents together. She sits stoically, and i scrape layer after layer of blue rattlecan paint off her head.
