Back in the Day- for Macro Mondays
A simpering lady in a big hat requiring Hat Pins!! Back in the Day, the pins kept one's HUGE, Glamorous hat in place and COULD serve as a very good weapon to defend on'e honour, should the occasion arise!
In this case, The Day we are speaking of is the June 1912 edition of The Ladies' Home Journal- the "Bride's Edition" . The hatpins were collected by me many years ago. The largest pin is the one with the brass ring around the purple "thistle" stone. The ring is an inch in diameter. The other three are very tiny but the pins themselves range between 6" and almost a FOOT in length!!!
HMM and Happy Easter.
