How to Store Vintage Hats

Today we are talking about one of my favorite topics- vintage hats! Here are some great tips for storing your vintage hat collection.

  1. Thanks for sharing how you store your hats! I was wondering how you go about doing that. Your round container (hat box??) is super awesome, and I'm still kicking myself for not snagging one last vintage flea market I was at.

    1. Carla, the red case is actually a vintage round suitcase. Most hat boxes are not large enough for the wide brimmed sun hats but the suitcase is just perfect.

  2. Ohhh, how I love your storage ideas. Thank you for sharing them. I need a better way to keep mine that are not up on the wall (they're just in cardboard boxes that some flocked hangers we bought when we moved into our current condo three years ago came packaged in). Could you please post the Amazon link for those boxes? I doubt Amazon Canada will have them (it has a miniscule percentage of the items, especially when they're not books, that the US site has), but if there's a brand name, maybe I could find them elsewhere. Thank you, lovely lady!

    *PS* If you don't me asking, how big do you think your hat collection is at this point? I'd venture to guess that mine has to be in the range of about 40 at this point, but I have been thinking of parting with some that don't fit me fabulously, so that number might drop in the future.

      I probably have around 50 hats in my collection. I don't wear all of them on a regular basis-probably only about 25 or so in my core collection.

    2. Awesome, thank you very much for that link.

      Same here! I love them all, but would say there's a core of about 20 - 25 that I reach for most frequently, with at least five that get worn nearly every month.

      Thanks again. Have a wonderful long weekend!
