Thanks! I had them professionally framed. I recommend that you contact several framers and ask them if they have experience framing scarves. That was the hardest part for me was finding a framer that can handle the job.
I second all the compliments! Your scarves, and dining room are simply gorgeous!!! Even DH exclaimed over my shoulder when he walked by. Good framers are worth their weight in gold aren’t they? Luckily I have one that has done hard to do pieces and they use tiny spacers between the glass and the piece so for example the rolled hems are protected. Thanks for sharing your gorgeous dr and scarves! I have two H scarf hangers I rotate scarves through so I can still wear them, but have a few scarves I want to frame. You are good motivation!
 
really like your Evie, esp with the strap diane!! You look great and I know you branched out into a few new gorgeous bags this year :heart:
Thank you! I’ve recently realized that I really like smooth leather....and the strap seems to “lighten” up the look a bit. I‘m hoping that my collection is done for now....

Lovely! I would love to hear how you like your Evelyne Sellier. It’s always been on my list :heart:
Thank you! I really like this bag. I had been thinking about it for awhile. I Love the smooth leather and sleekness of it. It’s still a bit stiff but I expect it to relax a bit as it gets used. I’m so used to clutches (and I still love them) but I felt having a crossbody would come in handy. I originally requested a Rouge H, but my SA couldn’t find one (we were talking on the phone while she was searching the computer) so I added black as an option and she saw one immediately.

Thank you @DrTr ! How do you like the H fixation system? I almost bought it awhile back but I was worried that it may be too hard to install and align the scarf perfectly. I do love the idea of being able to rotate scarves!

I ended up loving it. The first one we bought had an issue with the wires breaking that attach to the magnets and the scarves. However a lovely tpf’r told me to use hair elastics, so I found 2 that matched and it was perfect! The second one we bought was fine, they seemed to have fixed the problem. The trick is to only use 90s as 140s seem to put too much tension and won’t hold.

As far as perfect alignment, it helps to have a DH that is meticulous and precise :P and it is an easier two person job, but I came up with a trick of measuring exactly the 41 or so inches (measurements included) and taping a long dowel on each end for that measurement so we could mark the wall, screw in one post, then align the second one with the first use a level to make sure it was straight and so on. The posts have a wall screw that goes into the wall. Sounds terribly complicated but really not bad. It’s a little forgiving anyway. I also learned how to put the scarves on so they didn’t spring off at the top when I put the bottom of the scarf on. Now it’s easy. Here’s a view of one for an FYI. I have one over our bed and this one is in a home theatre. It’s fun to change the look of the room whenever I want AND get to see my lovely scarves during the pandemic. One can only wear so many for Zoom calls! HTH.

PS the magnets have leather on them where they touch the scarf, and as I don’t leave scarves up for months, they don’t stretch or get disfigured or get dusty. As I’m a “crease” scarf person I don’t iron them, though for walls hanging they would look nicer. The “poof” at the bottom is unavoidable, every pic I’ve seen in boutiques or homes has that.

Thanks for sharing a picture of your scarf with the fixation system and the tips for hanging. Beautiful!
