How Victorians stayed warm in winter? Making an 1840s accessories.
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
I wanted to go out in my 1840s dress, so I needed some warm accessories. I also needed a nice indoor cap to cover my head. For the outside, I made a nice little bonnet and a green velvet mantle. The reveal shots were filmed at Glims Farmstead Museum here at Espoo. You can find the museum website here: www.espoo.fi/en/glims-farmste.... I thank the museum for letting me film there in the nice old-timey atmosphere! Heini-Maria joined me at Glims wearing an outfit from roughly the same period. It was fun filming together!

Ah, such a lovely outfit! Your bonnet is just adorable, I'm inspired to have a go at making my own. And the snow! A very Merry Christmas to you and yours.
As usual your work is beautiful. I love your can-do attitude, it's so refreshing. Your dress and accessories look absolutely wonderful and the setting at the Museum is perfect. Thanks for posting this video.

Thank you! I tend to think that when making something, one shouldn’t ask whether one can do it but rather ”how one does it”! You can always find out and learn!

Thank you! I really think that the process and the history are the most interesting things. Otherwise the garments are just pieces of clothing.
The mantle and bonnet look so warm and comfy! Out of curiosity, how does cotton tulle feel? It looks more drapy than its synthetic counterpart, is it less scratchy as well?

Cotton tulle is drapey if not starched. Even synthetic tylle comes in several varieties, some of them are soft (like the one used in bridal veils) and some are really hard and scratchy. Cotton tulle is a wonderful material and very soft against the skin. You can imagine what it feels if you have ever touched delicate french cotton lace.
