Magic Hanky Bonnet

Whether it is used for coming home from the hospital, for a Christening or for a special event, these beautiful baby bonnets are sure to become an instant heirloom. With just the snip of a few stitches, the bonnet becomes a woman's handkerchief, perfect to carry as "something old" on a wedding day.

Each bonnet comes boxed, with your choice of poem.

Bonnet too small? Just snip the thread holding the gathers at the back of the bonnet.

Christening Day Option

Special Day Option

I'm just a little hanky
As square as square can be
But with a stitch or two
They make a bonnet out of me.

I'll be worn from the hospital
Or on my Christening day
Then I'll be carefully pressed
And neatly put away.

Then on the wedding day
At least this is what I'm told
Every well-dressed bride
Must have something old.

So what would be more fitting
Than to find little 'ole me
A few stitches snipped
And a wedding hanky I'll be.

If perchance it is a boy
Someday he'll surely wed
So to his bride he can present
The hanky he once wore upon his head.
