1840s Mourning Bonnet 'Clara'

Description

One of the two extra bonnets I've made (in addition to the previously uploaded one) to put in my Etsy shop.

This is a mourning bonnet in the coal scuttle shape and covered in black acetate taffeta. It's lined in black cotton (so it stays on your head!) and decorated with black grosgrain ribbon bows and black braid. The ties are grosgrain too.

Bonnets are now one of my favourite things to make! :D

The brushes used for this little montage are by eowuyn-rus, and they're lovely!

If you're interested in buying this bonnet, the Etsy listing is here (and there's also more photos!): [link]
