clothing related hardware

First things first.  Happy Mothers Day!

A friend from my doll club gave me a small plastic bag filled with metal clothing hardware.  I brought it home and spread it out-

I don’t know what lots of this stuff is for.  So curious.  I am feeling inspired to think about robots again… maybe over the summer.

    I have an old lingerie holder, shaped like a corset, with those little stocking hooks hanging off the bottom. Yesterday my daughter (almost 14) asked, what IS that thing? Quite the discussion ensued. Rather like explaining rotary telephones, with sexual cues thrown in.

    Amazing! I’m fascinated by the one that looks like a hanger with cup hook screws dangling off of it…hmmm?

    These are wonderful. And YES! YES! Robots please!

    They look great - such wonderful shapes. I think I would be tempted to frame some of them in a small collection - just for their lovely oddity.
