I updated last week’s copper hat with the last of my vintage feather pads. I’ve been thinking about adding this beautiful set of feathers all week. Actually, I was thinking about it as I did the ribbbon initially. I am so glad I pulled the hat and added the feather. I think it makes it absolutely darling.
This hat is meant to be for the Civil Was era. But, it can easily be worn further into the 70s and 80s, worn high and tilted forward.

Mmm, what a lovely feather pad! That looks excellent. A superb update!
