Ok, that makes sense. When I do an edge, I do the same thing with a round hoop. The material edge just sits in the space between the hoop edges. -Original Message- From: h-costume-boun...@indra.com [mailto:h-costume-boun...@indra.com] On Behalf Of Charlene Charette Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2010 8:38 PM To: Historical Costume Subject: Re: [h-cost] Unidenitified object - solved The hoop (no idea what it's official name is) has a horseshoe-like shape.

Anyone want to guess this one? It sounds like something that could be used for buttoning. As for the original mystery item, it looks too small and too smooth to be used in hair. It would need teeth of some sort to hold a roll of hair. I thought, from its size it might be used to hold open a sleeve, pant leg, sock or lady's boot, perhaps for repair work or to let it dry. But again, it is very smooth and I doubt it would stay in place. And shoe shapers aren't made like that.

Re: [h-cost] Unidenitified object
http://picasaweb.google.com/Charlene281/20100404?feat=directlink I bought something identical to it from Goody hair accessories back in the early 80's. It was for doing rolled, 40's style hairdos, and I believe it was a repro of something from that time. You were supposed to catch the ends of your hair between the two halves and then roll it up. I never could make it work properly. Sometimes in simplifying something, they make it unusable. The new modern hair ratts are what they though they were trying to "simplify"... but you needed very long hair to use them. I so prefer these kinds of flexible ratts: http://www.wilshirewigs.com/5334---Sm-Ratt-With-Elastic-pr-2410.html You can actually tuck long hair between the elastic and the rat and roll. Short hair you need to pin into the ratt, AND the ends of the elastic (rolled against the ratt) help you secure pins. Much better than the hard plastic. These do '40's do's as well as Gibson girl, Victorian, and anything that needs a roll instead of forcing just one shape Note: don't confuse these withe the other modern substitute, standard sponge rolls. You can't pin on those, you'd be better off w/ the hard plastic. -Cat- ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
