I also picked textiles so I was interested in seeing how we both approached this topic! I liked that you talked about proper storage of textiles. Since they are so fragile storing them properly can have an impact on how long the object lasts. I also liked that you talked about display of the textiles. You post is written well and broken down into easy to navigate and understand categories. There is a lot that goes into proper environmental conditions but I think you touched on the important main ones, but I also would have liked to see specific temperature/humidity numbers. I liked the examples you gave of the other environmental conditions though. I think our posts show how much goes into caring for textiles just in a preventative way.

Hi Courtney- This was a really relevant topic to choose and I think you covered it well! It was well-written and comprehensive and I also liked that you included a good mix of references too. It was summarized well with the right information! I think that all of the information that you presented could easily be incorporated by different sizes of museums with varied collections. I found that your section headings could have a bit more contrast in typography size from the section content, or maybe bullet points or a chart. Just to make it clear that Flat, Folded, Rolled, etc. is under Storage and not a separate section. Dmcadams jhu (talk) 21:40, 18 February 2017 (UTC)
