STRANGE & WONDERFUL




DO YOU LOVE HATS?!!

I love hats, but I never seem to wear them enough. Recently I was contracted to create a red denim cap for a friend. She loved the hat, and I also included a line of very cool accessories she could change the look of the hat depending on her mood and/or outfit. Here's the finished product.

I also expanded the use of the accessories to perform "double duty" - not having to be worn on the hat. Yes, they can be worn individually as jewelry and hair accessories! This may not be a first in the way of novel ideas, as I've been creating this kind of dual accessorizing for many years - some others may have as well. But it goes to show you - do what you know and stick with it. Just bring it in line with today's trends. Happy hat wearing! :0)
