First Hats of the Year! | If I Had My Own Blue Box:

First Hats of the Year!

This hat is all about sweetness and texture. Velvet burgundy roses, soft pale green silk ribbon, and a lush brown velvet ribbon trim this walnut brown straw. The tapered crown and shaped brim were popular during the 1860s.
The crown of this hat is 21″ around the inside; it will sit high on an average size head. https://www.etsy.com/listing/957945915/victorian-era-hat-hand-sewn-by-anna

A natural, creamy white plume and feather pad trim this rich walnut straw hat along with a vintage satin brown ribbon. The medium high tapered crown hat has a brim shaped with an up curl angled towards the front. This style reflects the fashions of the 1870s, focusing on height. The crown of this hat is 20.5″ around the inside; it will sit high on an average size head. https://www.etsy.com/listing/957937931/victorian-era-hat-hand-sewn-by-anna

This is the first hat I’ve made on this sweet reproduction block with the fun dip in the crown. Depending on the era, this hat can be worn high on the head tilting forward or atop your hair arrangement. I finished the rich walnut straw with a cotton velvet brim edge and lining, and a vintage satin ribbon around the crown.

Wow. I didn’t realize until after I hit the “publish” button just how nervous I am about these pieces and how sales will go. I don’t really know how bad things are for my clients and folks in the museum/history world. I went into such a fog when school started back up, between the stress and utter exhaustion. I feel like I lost a good sense of things. Now, that the spring season has started for me, I don’t know how things will go. I don’t know if people are able to buy. I have no clue at this moment what adaptations I will need to make if people aren’t able to buy. Hats are such frivolous things, unless they are the “bread and butter.”
