While at the Glenn Curtiss Museum I took a picture of this wreath. It is made from human hair that was collected by one individual. It is then woven into this beautiful wreath.
I can remember when I was a child, my Grandma Gerow would brush my long dark brown hair then clean out the brush and roll the hair around her finger and put it in a special dish on her dresser and she would do the same for herself. She did not make a wreath, she made jewelry. I remember a pin that she often wore. Now I wonder what ever happened to it.
I bet these dishes bring back memories to some of you also. |
