cat’s out of the bag!
I admit it, when I first found this link I kind of wanted to keep it to myself. The Walters family ebay shop Vintage Feathers and More is so much fun that I want to buy one of everything. I limited myself to two items (wait – now three) which I’ll try to turn into some kind of wedding hair accessory, but maybe down the road I can buy a bunch of things to play with. Oh, the possibilities! Don’t you just want to open up a little etsy shop where you sell cute things made with French millinery feathers from the early 1900s?! Yeah!

The vintage trims have been an interesting side business for us.
We found them in a huge, old barn where we rescued them from a horrible, moldering doom!
