The one Chodoeweiki image is almost like a Where's Waldo? of bonnets! And I love the fact that we've only but brushed the surface of this bonnet thing (and that we all share!). Exciting days ahead I think.ColeVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06677760179064796377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813354351680599871.post-84288058910847145482011-05-21T22:50:52.839-04:002011-05-21T22:50:52.839-04:00I've been doing some research on early bonnets...I've been doing some research on early bonnets since I kept finding tantalizing references to "black silk bonnets" in Virginia newspaper adds in the 1740s.

I've been thinking about buying myself a bonnet for some time, and to know that there are so many period images of them out there in the world is reassuring!
