    "I need a hat. I don't know how to make a hat. I'm going to jump in and make a hat anyways!" It turned out wonderfully. Excellent job and description of how you did it. Thanks so much for sharing your project. Take care.

    the hat looks marvelous. As casual observer I would've never guessed it wasn't made by an expert

    If my great-grandmother, a milliner in the late 1890’s and early 1900’s, had had a hot glue gun, she’d have used it! She passed away long before I was born, but her love of “working smarter” was often remembered to the family.
    I’m dead impressed by this gorgeous hat you’ve materialized!! Granted it took far more effort than waving a wand, but is no less magical, in my book. Well done! Have a beautiful and happy week!

    Fantastic! Between you and TheClosetHistorian, I'm starting to believe that I can actually manage to make a hat for my 1880s project. You give me hope!

      You might try Angela Clayton if you haven't found her on TH-cam yet. She has some hat tutorials too.

    I'm slightly hat obsessed, and this is one I'd gladly add to the collection. You did an amazing job with it. Hopefully my own endeavors turn out half so well.

    This is the second black velvet hat I've run across in as many days -- what's that? I need a velvet hat? Hmmmm, maybe I DO need a velvet hat! Good Job! Stay well.

    the closet historian posted a bonnet making video yesterday. did you see that one? yours is pretty good for a first try!

      I think both turn out beautiful! And they are sort of from the same era..

    I love the shape of the brim. Your hat looks lovey. One of my favorite parts of making things is that moment of thinking/feeling "I could try to do that myself"! It's exciting to see others have that moment too.

    Thanks for showing that! I'm also planning to make a hat but since my style seems to be medieval peasant, I'm going to be making it out of braided strips of corn husk (couldn't find the kind of grass I wanted for a proper straw hat). Yours looks far nicer than mine plans to!!

    Looks lovely! Really inspired to get hat making, once I've go try basic wardrobe sorted. My only experiment with hat making (years ago) went so horribly wrong I've been avoiding it ever since.
