Day by Decade

52 Weeks of Historical How-To’s

While doing research for a personal project, I happened to stumbled upon an interesting article called “52 Weeks of Historical How-To’s, Week 23: Dressmaking”. Just the title alone was enough to pique my interest, because I felt it went hand-in-hand with the goal of day by decade.

Curious to know more about these “How-To’s”, I clicked on the author’s name, hoping to find the rest of them. And I did…after having to search through a significant amount of their posts. It turns out that the author posted it under the University of St. Andrew’s Special Collections Department’s account. With how the site is set up, I couldn’t narrow down the search by name and tags; just one or the other.

So, after scanning through the posts, trying to get to the year the “How-To’s” were posted in, I finally found them. And since I didn’t want anyone else to have to do that much work, I’ve linked each week down below 😁!

I hope you enjoy their posts as much as I did!
