hankie bonnets




Mothers and grandmothers used to make bonnets out of heirloom hankies, I am not sure where the custom came from but they make nice baby shower gifts. You can buy your own hankie and send it to me to make the bonnet or I can pick one out of my stash, just tell me the color you want. I have pink, yellow, blue roses hankies and assorted hankies I bought from antique stores. These will be priced at $6 plus shipping. Most of the time, they can be sent in a regular envelope, bonnet would be wrapped in plastic. It would take 2 first class stamps to mail.
