Boxing day!

Brian has not been able to resist fixing the two hat boxes we bought in Paris. I wasn’t quite sure what he was going to do to cheer them up, I had thought they just needed a light clean, but he has kept disappearing over the last week, and because it’s that time of year, I hadn’t asked him what he’d been up to.

Yesterday he surprised me, with the two renovated hat boxes. They look amazing. He has carefully cleaned them, and meticulously glued paper and card inside the lids and walls of the boxes to strengthen and reposition them. So they now retain their shape.

They look perfect up on the top of the old armoire we bought. I love them.
