My first hat!

Oct 22

My first hat is complete! Although it’s not in my typical color scheme, I’m completely happy with the turnout. I always thought if I were to design, I would create a style similar to my own. Turns out, that’s not the case at all. I guess all the fall madness got to me when I created this number. I mean, if a burnt orange trim doesn’t scream fall, I don’t know what does.

Although this hat came with some challenges (sore fingers from hand-sewing galore), it’s nice knowing that I created this with my own gumption.

What do you think?

    I LOVE the colors and the entire thing, you are going to be a HIT if you continue! Maybe one day you’ll be making hats for the queen! (and me lol)

      I wish! Maybe. It’s just an expensive hobby for now though!

    It looks FANTASTIC! I love the colors and I really think the green is so perfect with your skin tone. Great job lady!

      Thanks, Sarah! I loved the green too, but I was originally going to add more black. I like the end result though.

    You look so cute! I love hats, but I find them difficult to pull off. You look like a total rockstar!

    Can we officially call you a hatter now? This is a pretty amazing fall accessory, and doubly cool because you make it yourself!
