VTG Handmade Peachy-Orange Calico Sunbonnet Prairie Bonnet.

Definitely something Laura Ingalls would’ve worn! Great for gardening or playing dress up! Worn it few times in the garden and cleaned up beautifully.

I watched too much Little House, in case you can't tell.

Got this from the home of a 92yo antiques dealer in rural Georgia. I now have 5+ sun bonnets, and am finally willing to let go of a few. 

Unusually well-made bonnet, with ruffles as snaps, for air ventilation, adjustable fit on back for hair or giant noggins... pretty detail like 2 sizes of rick rack. This is still usable for custume or dress or reenactment, but would make great study piece for making more, as I really haven't seen many like this.

Preloved item with long life before eBay. This does have some condition issues - a hole in back and on bottom neck ruffle, but otherwise rest of fabric is in great shape, ties are secure, snaps all snap, and this is clean. Brim is crispy but keeps nice round shape. See photos.
