To quote Julie Andrews: These are a few of my favorite things:
1. a good treasure-hunt!
2. getting packages in the mail!
3. hats!
4. the stylish 1920s!
5. flowers!
All rolled into one, what could be better? Treasure hunting on eBay, Etsy and other places to find bits and pieces for Amanda. This lovely hat, along with three others arrived from the States yesterday. My assistant, Birgitte, got them at a thrift-shop a week ago. Now that is one thing I miss in Norway: loads of vintage&antique-, charity& second-hand-shops. Good thing the mail-service still exists 
Oh, that was pretty quick! I’m glad it all got to you all right! I saw the thumbnail of this hat in my feed-reader, and realized you must have put your hands on the hats. So looking forward to seeing all this come together over the next month or so!
