In order to show support for secession, many people in the 1860s wore secession cockades. The Dallas Herald on December 5, 1860 declared: “Many of our citizens appear on the streets of Dallas wearing the cockade of our national colors, blue ribbon with a golden star. Some wear cockades of red.” Approximately 3" (7 cm) across rosette.

People in the past wore a cockade to tell a story about themselves. I love researching what those stories were and why people wanted to tell them. People today have stories to tell too, so that's what motivates me to keep making cockades! What's your story and how can I help you tell it better?
