HAT PARADE
As Easter approaches nature is putting on new "clothes" with the coming of Spring.
What nature does humans tend to follow. The donning of new clothes for Easter symbolizes the coming of Spring.
Where does the custom of the Easter parade come
from?In Northern Europe it was considered rude and bad luck to the goddess of Spring, then known as Eastre, to be seen in anything but fresh and
new clothing.
The wearing of three new things at Easter assures good luck in the coming year.
The Easter hat got its start as a wreath of flowers and/or leaves,
the circle an expression of the roundness of the sun and its travel
through the heavens which brought it back for the return of spring.
You can make you own Easter hat with some of the ideas
below.
Be creative and
have fun!
