Millinery 101: Sugary Sweet Cocktail Hat
Well, here it is folks. My sixth and final hat. That’s all and there ain’t no more.
I used the same taupe colored felt that I used for my wedding veil. Using a scrap of it, I created a little faux feather, and added some vintage trimmings. The blue velvet leaves and blue-grey veil are from our instructor’s extensive collection of vintage frills & frippery. The tiny sparkle beads were from an old necklace I had.

Maker’s Remarks will be a recurring post, wherein we feature the work of artists, crafters, illustrators, designers, and all around makers, along with a hint of insight into their colorful characters. With a few interview questions, some serious and some less so, we’ll add a little bit of context to a lot of great work.

Westervin Wedding: With this (feather) ring…
I haven’t really had any good ideas for my wedding band, but since the ceremony is a good year or two away, I haven’t been too worried. Leave it to Etsy, however, to lengthen my ever-expanding wish list. I was just surfing the web in my down time, minding my own business, when I happened to glance at the Etsy front page… and at my future wedding band! I’m just smitten with this white gold feather band from Adzia . I just hope this little pretty is still available when it’s time to order our rings… and that I can convince the designer to use recycled white gold!
