Some days are a real privilege

That feeling of wanting to pinch oneself that one is so lucky happen rarely but i was fortunate to have two this week.

Privilege day 1- I have been helping out at Hat Works doing some research for them, just being in the museum when no one else is is a real buzz and privilege, you see everything in a very different light. This week I have been helping label items that could be used in their up and coming trimmings exhibition. Sad but true the actual boxes on the shelves in the store are exciting enough, its like Christmas Day as you never know whats going to be inside. As you may have noted before from my posts on Platt Hall and Bankfield Museum stores are an inspiration for me.

So many interesting things some quite curious ones too mind. Unable to show you whats in line for exhibition yet that's not up to me but a quick peep into two boxes that I think all milliners would love delivered to their door. The silk veiling in particular was astonishingly beautiful.

Exhibition will open in November I will keep you posted.
