Such an amazing collection! It must be Christmas in your closet everyday. Excuse my ignorance but would you mind telling me the name of this shawl that I have circled in your pic...

OMG...Hermes museum online!!!! Great collection...each and every scarf is like a pinting.

How absolutely brilliant of you to have kept track of the names of your collection. I tip my hat to you. I have not been as wise. I am so looking forward to viewing your collection. It will be such a treat. Thank you for sharing.

How do you store your collection. I am very curious.

Hi All! So excited you are enjoying the thread

. I'm just home from work and catching up on all your fun and sweet posts - thanks so much for all the kind words and the laughs!!! W/o further delay, here is the next group of scarves!

VickyB · Apr 20th, 2009, 10:38 PM

Thanks, Luxury! Not so brilliant on my part actually. Back in Oct, MT asked me what scarves I had and I didn't know off the top of my head so I decided to do an inventory for fun for her(and me). I knew I had what I believed to be a decent size collection but nver really gave it much thought

and I didn't really realize how large the collection had become until I started pulling everything out

! I can't believe how long it took to unfold, record the name and refold everything but it was worth every second!! That's why I just couldn't record all the color ways. Lesson learned - now asap I add each new family member to the list as soon as I get it.

As for how I manage them, I had to do away with using the scarf boxes many moons ago - took up way too much space and they just weren't user/fashion friendly for me. I find that to really use the scarves, I need to be able to see them all. So, I have a large dresser w/ both shallow and deep drawers where they all live very happily . I make sure to always keep the orginal folds, then I fold again in half and have them all sort of displayed like at H. This works well for me b/c at a glance I can see the color ways/patterns and know just what I want to grab for me and or what ever H bag I'm using.

I'm a short-time lurker and first time poster to tPF. I've been reading a few threads about the beautiful scarves and was thinking about posting my collection of scarves, but now I'm too embarrassed after seeing your beauties, Vicky! I have no idea what the names of the scarves are anyway. :) Thanks so much for showing your incredible collection. I'm truly awed and am excitedly anticipating your next posts!

Hermes Nuttynut · Apr 20th, 2009, 10:59 PM

Vicky,

You have an outstanding collection!! If you're looking for the name of the scarf that's the mosaic with animals, I think that is "Pavements". The scarf on the lower left, 2nd one up from the bottom.

VickyB · Apr 20th, 2009, 11:08 PM

Hermes Nutty -thanks so much it is Pavements, I didn't know for the logest time!!!

Pauillac - you are much much too kind and you underestimate the beauty of your own collection!! I know everybody would do back flips to see it!!
