I Couldn’t Resist Sharing

Several years ago for my birthday my husband bought me an antique witch’s costume. As in, a Halloween costume from the late 1800s/early 1900s. It was in pretty rough shape, but still beautiful, and I loved it. I had always planned on giving it a proper display treatment, but to my great shame for years it was displayed by having it hang on a wire coat hanger attached to a tack in the wall.

Recently, prompted by a 60% off all framing sale at our local Michael’s, my long standing shame has been transformed into beaming pride.

Behold!

  1. That is fabulous! What a wonderful display of history! I envy you big time!

  2. How awesome! I don’t blame you for wanting to show it off, it is beautiful! Thanks for sharing it with us.

  3. What an amazing gift. How beautiful. Whenever I hear stories like this I can’t help but wonder who might have worn the dress originally. I think they’d be happy that the dress found it’s way to someone who can appreciate her.
