SHMILLERERY !! This is genius!!This could become ur side hustle!!!!please do the placement hat similar to this to fit and become a wide brim beret for church ⛪️ 😀 and weddings etc!
@@SHMillinery Thank you for replying so fast! If I would like to use stiffiner what would you recomend? What if the placemat is made of plastic, what would you use then?
I really love this fab idea, I’m definitely going to try this. Do you use a specific supplier for the straw placemats? when I look they all seem to be made of polypropylene, not made of straw. Thank you 😊 x
Hi Sara, i've got a question here, but doesn't concern this tutorial. Is it possible to colour white feathers and change them into a different colour e.g red, green, blue etc?
Just made my first 2 placemat fascinators and I'm really chuffed with the outcome. I came across your channel by accident but I'm so glad I did.
Fab so pleased this worked for you 😀
I wanted to show you the finished hat but there's no option to add a photo. It's turned out amazing. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills x
@alisonBeighton-ec9om I am glad this helped. You can always email me a pic, shmillinery@gmail.com xxxxxx
I would have loved to see the finished product
the pictures at the beginning of the video show the finished hat, I am sorry the video cut short!
what a brilliant idea. I'll never look at those placemats with same amount of disinterest again.
Completely Gorgeous! I would love to see more with these type placemats. My favorite hatmaker💖💖💖💖💖🙏🏼🌹
Fabulous. I use placemats as well. Such a wonderful material for hat making!
Yes, and you can do such a lot with them, including cutting them up 😆
Do you have a Chanel? Melba Bowen?
This is such a great idea! Thank you for sharing!
So talented,this hat is beautiful.
Its a very elegant hat.
Lovely
I also like placemats hats
I definitely have to make this. Thanks for the video ❤️

Beautiful!! Thanks
Thank you too!
@SHMillinery how fabulous! Your steamer (I am in the USA) is what brand/type? Love your creations, and subscribed of course :)
♥️💕♥️💕♥️
*Simply Beautiful!*
Marvelous!
Pretty awesome!!
I have some beautiful pairs of buttons I think I could use on placemat hats as well as flowers? ❤️👒🌺
Sounds a great idea 👌
This is GENIOUS!!! Thank you so much💗
Love this idea! Do you need to use a stiffiner for it to keep the shape , and if so what would you recomend?
I didn't use any, as they are stiff enough
@@SHMillinery Thank you for replying so fast! If I would like to use stiffiner what would you recomend? What if the placemat is made of plastic, what would you use then?
@tlindfors9917 I would use any straw stiffener, but not on plastic as it is not absorbant so wouldn't work
@@SHMillinery Becuse I´m not sure if my placemat is made of straw or plastic.
Thank you so much.
Very useful info. Thank you.
Wao beautiful mam
Love this video. ❤
Ur a genius I love this 😊💯
Wow, interesting!
What is the brand of the steamer?
A plus for great work
Lovely! What steamer are you using, it looks amazing!
Hi Collen, it is just a small household steamer, this one is 'silvercrest' but Vax and other companies make them. I hope this helps
I MAKE PURSES OUT OF PLACEMATS & EYEGLASS CASE OUT OF SQUARE OVEN PADS.
Where can I buy a Steamer like the one you're using?
I wish I had a hat block like yours as I want to get into millinery
Just buy a basic crown block...you can do lots!
what steamer do you use?
any small household steamer, normally used for cleaning!
Nice One I LOVE It please And I want To Know How To Make It's ❤🎉 Thanks 🙌🥰
Is it possible to shellac the placemats sometimes I can tell if they are made of straw, fabric or polyester? Thanks
I use straw ones, shellac wouldn't stiffen them any more , hope this helps
What steamer is that ?
Just a general household one
Do you think it's possible to shape a placement into a fedora shape on top?
No, they won't go into complex shapes
Thanks
Love your channel! Is there any glue you can recommend to cover the entire hat with so it won’t lose its shape and be stiff?
this is fairly stiff anyway, but you could coat with 50/50 pva/water mix brushed on
@@SHMillinery oh I see. Thanks 🤗
Hi Sara, is it possible to enlarge sinamay hat with a hat stretcher?
No, it will just tear

I really love this fab idea, I’m definitely going to try this. Do you use a specific supplier for the straw placemats? when I look they all seem to be made of polypropylene, not made of straw. Thank you 😊 x
Hi, I just buy them when I see them in home stores, but you can use polypropylene ones as well.
Do you know someone who teaches how to make hats like Lilian Taylor? I love big hats for big occasions

Hi, yes I explain how to in this video :) th-cam.com/video/pIywGIazJDU/w-d-xo.html

Funny how sellers on ebay and etsy are charging over $300 for these when in materials are mere $5 will do with some hand work
👍🙂👍
Pls I don't have steamer what can I use to iron the mat pls
Just dampen them 🙂
My goodness...
