    Hat making?? Learning Millinery..

    I will check with Clint and see when he might be able to get a block made for me. The other problem is the flange. This hat has a 3" wide brim, but the snap works perfectly. By the way what color felt would you want for this style hat? I only have rabbit felts on hand, one of these days I will...

    Hat making?? Learning Millinery..

    Hi Brent, I am sorry but no I do not have a block over 60cm RO, I think that I would need a 63cm LO block for that hat size, correct me if I am wrong. I can always try to get a 63cm LO block, however I know Clint has enough orders to keep him in the work shop until the end of January. The only...

    Hat making?? Learning Millinery..

    Here is a hat that a man out in California ask me to make for him, I still have a few things to do, but I thought that it might be interesting just to look at. It has been a little bit of a challenge so far, he contacted me on Ebay and ask for this style hat. Please let me know what you think so...

    Busted Hats

    Yes it is, I followed your instructions and it came out pretty good. I had to get translations for the iron that I purchased, all Oriental markings on the iron and the manual was the same. Thank you for helping with the application on the Sublimation and where to buy the Sublimations.

    Busted Hats

    Well I have my first hat listed on Ebay that has my name and the name for my hats on the hat liner. I need to improve on writting ads but if you would like to take a look check out my Ebay link. The photos with the liner are at the bottom of the photos of the hat. Let me know what you think...

    Hat making?? Learning Millinery..

    That's not good news, you would think that someone in the hat material supply business would offer some products for a lower price than their competitors to make more sales and create some competition in the market. If they offered their fur felts for $10.00 less than the other guy, they would...

    Jiffy Steamer J1 hat steamer

    I did give that a try both times and the only thing that I didn't try was a plastic tub, that might have saved some towels and mop time, and an unhappy wife.

    Jiffy Steamer J1 hat steamer

    I have a Jiffy Steamer J1 hat steamer for sale, I have only used the steamer 2 times, the reason that I don't use the Jiffy steamer is, I have to use it in our kitchen on our counter top and our floors are wood and the hot water on our wooden floors is not a good ideal, so I would like to sell...

    I am sure that he will be back to buy another hat, with the service that you offer with your hats, he will want another hat and a different color of course, a steel blue color would look good next to the charcoal color.

    Hat making?? Learning Millinery..

    Thank you Brent. After making this hat I realize that I need to add some more ribbon to my small collection. The blue/gray hat band really makes this hat stand out. The profile photos do look good, I need to get a better camera or learn how to take pictures.

    Well the good news is, I have sold all of my hats on Ebay, plus two hats that I never put on Ebay for sale and I have settled on a name, "Busted Hats", the name fits, I am always busted.

    Wolfbrae Custom Hatters

    Actually I like both imprint and the embroidery. However the embroidered version does really pop out and grab your attention, really great work on the embroidery. Your work on hats is perfection, and the embroidery work is great, the only thing left now is gold embossing on the leather...
