This hat is THE accessory piece to an outfit or a special outing. The felt hat has delicious texture as the wool has fused to and rippled the black silk velour during the felting process. It reminds me of textiles made for Royalty that sit in museums or castles in Europe. The bow is made with stiff pineapple silk; oversized and flipped upside down as if you're about to get swept off your feet! We play dress up as youngsters. Somewhere along the line many of us lose that ability to just let go and express ourselves with fashion and play. This hat invites you back to a simpler time where play was fun and the bigger the bow, the better! -

I have had this beaded silk material for years. Sometimes I let silks sit a year or two until I realize the amazing hat I want to make with them. Recently while thrift shopping I picked up a black and navy floral scarf that I intended to offer to my niece for her hat. On closer inspection I realized that it was a perfect match for the beaded flower silk, and I scooped it up for myself! This is the resulting hat, a GORGEOUS hat from all angles, the beads and sequins and sculptural elements. Subtle yet glamorous, it can be dressed up for a night out and worn casually with a high-neck sweater to get your morning coffee... -

The silk for this gossamer hat was up-cycled from a very intricately beaded silk blouse. SO vibrant with fabulous detail, this hat reminds me of my garden right now (August)! Heaps of colorful perennials providing pollen and nectar to honeybees, hummingbirds and various other flying insects. I will often sit quietly and watch the action around my garden beds, witnessing the little ecosystem and marveling in its beauty. That feeling, that "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh", is what this hat does to me. Capture summer and take that feeling of calm and warmth with you into your winter and fall seasons with this gorgeous gossamer hat. -

This hat whisks you from where you are to New York City. A place of unlimited fashion freedom. Where black is the main color of clothing, styled into sharp, intelligent and unique outfits. The key to the outfit? The power of a well-chosen accessory... This hat is edgy and can be worn many ways. By changing its place on your head, even by one inch, the whole feel of the hat changes. Pull it down to demurely cover one eye increasing the mystery... Tilt it upward a little, and it has the feel of a modern 60's Maud hat. The point is...why not bring a little NYC home. Be that person to keep that fashion flair alive, right where you live. "Personal style is attitude, attitude, attitude. It has to come from within. You have to develop things yourself". - Iris Apfel -
This hat is best described by a song by Tenille Townes - wanting to reclaim her fierce, carefree self, indulging in the beauty and pace of the smaller moments in life. "The girl who didn't care": "I wanna worry a little less, love a little more Barefoot in a dress, dancing on the floor Like I did, back when, when I was younger Making up the songs, playing in my head Didn't matter what anybody said Didn't need to be like all the others Giant dreams and wild hair Yeah, I know she's still in there somewhere The girl who didn't care" -
This headband is a show-stopper. Bold colors, sculptural design and sheer elegance. This can be worn to a formal event, wedding, or garden party. The shape can be changed by bending the lace's supporting wire. Valentina means health and strength. "It is a shame for a woman to grow old without ever seeing the strength and beauty of which her body is capable". - Socrates.
