Hippie personal decorations were wide ranging, from rings (Ringo Starr of the Beatles rock band wore rings on many of is fingers), braclets, headbands (to hold that long hair in place), necklaces, wool belts woven on small inkle looms, bells and even wearing earrings in pierced earlobes. Hippie home and room decorations included the new psychedelic rock concert posters, and black light posters. Of course, there was the everpresent scent from burning incense and from essential oils, often imported from India. : Background sketch
