If you’ve read this blog for a while I think you’ll know that I like lace costume postcards. This is a local traditional wedding outfit. As always with most of the older photographs the details are really in focus and clear.
I imagine that mothers, grandmothers, aunts and big sisters probably started making lace for the future ‘big day’ as soon as a baby girl was born.

A lady's Life: I'd love to learn how to make lace too; if only i had the time.
DB: As far as I know, no But there are plenty of girls who still marry in white. The bridal shops in La Rochelle are very chic and expensive.
Sarah: let me know if you ever find any!
That is beautiful! It reminds me of a German book I read recently called "The Green Silkcloth" that was passed down from generation to generation.
Oh, thanks for letting me know about the Heidi sequels..I had no idea! I will try to find them.
interesting. you do not see those in weddings anymore and they're lovely!
