More Hats!

Hello!

I thought I'd share some more hats I got this summer at rummage sales. Enjoy!

I can't quite remember where I got this one, it may have been the estate sale that I got the bridesmaids dress from. A great springtime hat!




This is a basic black bowler type hat I got at a sale. It had a mangled feather on it, probably attacked by a cat. It had a little black bow on it, which I need to sew back on.




This beautiful cloche I got from a very sweet lady who takes care of my great aunt. It was embellished with some fake flowers and feathers, plus a net bow. The embellishments were in bad shape, and really made the hat look cheap, so I took it all off, trying not to wreck the fuzzy felt on the hat. I put this ribbon from JoAnn's and two ivory rosette hair clips on it, making the hat shine, rather than burying it.


 
 I got this hat at the same sale as the black bowler one. I think it looks best when a side of the brim is tipped to the side. I'm not crazy about the brooch on it, I don't think it's original, do you?



 
Which one is your favorite?

    You are so incredibly beautiful!! I have a penchant for half hats, so my favourite is the first one. Definitely agree that side-tipping the brim is the way to go on the last hat, and I like the gold tone of the brooch with that particular shade of brown.

    So many amazing hats! I love the little springtime hat and the bowler best. I'm really rather jealous of your good hat fortunes, I have such trouble finding hats I like at reasonable prices.

    I love all those hats, its so hard to choose, but my favourite would have to be the beige clothe hat, the way that you have remodelled the whole thing is just amazing, you are so creative and it looks so original!
