With summer upon us and the warm weather inspiring me, I have spent a lot of time on my front porch planning away.  I have A LOT of ideas and new areas to expand for this blog, and well, I just can’t wait!  You also might have noticed a new format to my blog.  This is in an attempt to improve ease of use and organization.  I hope you like it!

Now on to the good stuff!

I want to share with you some beautiful photographs.  As I was researching and looking up various examples of women’s jewelry, I was surprised at how many different types of earrings were worn during the 1860’s….including hoops, which I thought were just 20th century and today.  I know that for any historical savvy re-enactor it is all about the details.  I hope these help!

Anyone planning on attending any reenactments this summer?  Would love to hear from you…maybe they are near me!
