As someone who mourns the loss of hats as a staple wardrobe item, and equates unadorned heads with a decline of culture and society, I am so happy to see such a great tutorial on how a simple classy little hat can be made so easily! 😊
the only way we can get people to wear hats again is WEAR them ourselves. there are no rules anywhere that says we cant. not like the old days where there were rules of dress everywhere. - love hats WEAR THEM>. and have fun. people will be delighted and a wee bit jealous of you..
I love these little hats and didnt realise they were so simple to make (I probably just never thought about how lol!). I will be making a couple because they look so classy and add that authentic touch to vintage inspired outfits. This particular style is seen a lot in vintage pictures, with flowers or feathers. Its great! Thank you!
I was looking for a diy to make a cute hat to go with a vintage inspired dress I am attempting to make and yours was first up. No need to search anymore, because this is absolutely perfect! I do hope mine comes out as nice as yours.
That is a very elegant hat. In fact, I used to have one that was very similar. My grandmother gave it to me. BTW: Constant Comment is my favorite tea. If you haven't already, you must try it. Can't wait to watch the rest of your videos.
Lol, I completely understand! I have some crafts I want to do, yet turn out terrible! Knitting for example.....lol. Oh I am glad you enjoyed the music!
love this! I love how you actually sewed it and not hot glued the hat. It makes it looks so classy. This last year was my first time making half hats for my daughters outfits(I also sewed them). I love half hats and have decided to make my own. This is a perfect hat and exactly what I was wanting. I shall have to create one. I didn't use wire on my hats, but I will do that next time because it gives it a nicer structured frame.
Hot glue, never thought of that, but I bet it could be an alternative to sewing if done properly! I am so glad you liked this hat and I do hope you make one! They are such fun! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much for this awesome video. I am making hats for myself to go with my 50's wardrobe. Great tutorial.!! Definitely more vintage hats!!! Blessings to you as well!
I have this wire for making flowers. I wanted to make a hat with it, but couldn't figure out how. You just made this look easy!!! I can't wait to make my new hat!!!! Thanks for making it look easy!!! Have any more videos on making other hats? I like how easy you make it. Thank you!!!!
Oh you are most welcome!! I am so glad it helped!! I am hoping to make more hat videos soon, I have a new idea in mind, just need to sketch it out and figure out how to make it!! Hopefully I will share it in the near future!!
@@littleantiqueme8714 for the most part it was, but I done a couple of things a little different, but they came out looking pretty good. I am now I the process of making one like yours I this video. Mine is a little different and I'm using a different fabric, and will use store bought fake flowers.
@@littleantiqueme8714 I thought it turned out fairly well. I don't guess there is a way to add a photo in the comments here us there? All who have seen it on my FB page really likes it.
I am going to have to make one myself now - I’ve been looking for a set of decent instructions for a half-hat all day and you have exceeded everything else I have seen by double, so thank you! Also - favorite tea will always be a warm mug of plain, smooth Ceylon tea :)
Oh you are most welcome, thank you for watching!! I am so glad this helped you and hope you enjoy making one! If you have any more questions don’t hesitate to ask. ❤️❤️ Oh isn’t that the most delicious tea?? I need to pick up more. I am currently enjoying a lavender tea ☺️
LittleAntiqueMe I certainly will do! In fact a question for you now - if one did not have a fusable interfacing at hand, do you think a thin but sturdy buckram or something would make an ok replacement? Sewn on first to the hat base and then fashion fabrics applied over the top?
I believe that would work just as well! I would just make sure it is attached tightly to the frame so that the outer fabric lays flat across it! Let me know how it works, I may have to try it myself! ❤️
I like how you presented all of the items needed and I have decided that I shall call the center brace the central twist. Don't know why. It is hard to find hats like these so I think it is very neat that you made your own and I love that your husband doesn't mind lending a hand. How long did it take you to hand sew the sides? Also adore the details in how you stitched the flowers. My favorite hot tea is rooibos and my favorite cold is taro bubble tea 😄 The craftsmanship in the hat was amazing 😲 I definitely wanna give it a go.
Center brave, perfect name!! My husband loves to take over my crafts, haha, but I don’t mind since he is very handy! It took me about 10 minutes to hand stitch all the way around. I hope you make one! They are such fun!
Hi, thank you for sharing on how to make this beauty! How does it stay on the head if let’s say, you’re wearing to a party with lots of dancing and moving around? Also, how thick is the wire? Thank you again 🙏❤️
Hi! You’re welcome, thank you for watching! There are a couple of options. You could sew hair combs or clips on the inside to attach it to your hair. You could also use Bobby pins to secure the ends of the hat to your hair. Lastly, and this is my favorite, you could sew a piece of super thin elastic from end to end. You can put the elastic under your hair and it will hold the hat in place.
Thank you! I was looking for a tutorial like this. If I do it for my 3-year niece, what size wire would you recommend? Children don" t like it very hard on their heads. Thanks in advance.
You are most welcome! This is a good question. If possible, I would measure from ear, over the top of her head, and base the shape off of that. The nice thing about the wire is it is adjustable, so it could be snug or less snug. I hope this helps!
¡Hola! gracias por mirar, y me alegra que haya sido fácil de seguir. Sí, se veían las puntadas, pero usé puntadas pequeñas y se esconden bien. ¡Espero que esto ayude!
Que bien que pudistes entender mí comentario!👏otra cosa podrás enseñar a hacer con base de metal ,pero un poco más estilo casquito hasta la nuca y en capas, si no es mucho pedir. Te cuento ,m han pedido las señoras de la colectividad ortodoxa, ellas las usan. Y sería bueno para mí si pudiera hacer algunos modelos diferentes. Gracias!
¡Oh gracias! Le pedí un poco de ayuda a un amigo, así que supe que había traducido correctamente. ❤️❤️ Oh, creo que sé de qué estilo de sombrero estás hablando. Lo investigaré y veré si puedo encontrar algo fácil de hacer y seguir. Si tiene fotos de lo que tiene en mente, no dude en enviarme un mensaje en Instagram, @littleantiqueme o por correo electrónico: littleantiqueme@gmail.com ¡Espero hablar con usted pronto!
I can’t find where you made this beautiful hat on instagram (I’m not very insta-savvy🫣) could you give me approximate length and width of finished hat please? It’s fab and I love your video 🎉
❤ Beautiful.Thank you❤

I Love this hat I will be making my own!! Where did you get the ironable stiffner paper or material from that you ironed the velvet material to!!
Thank you so very much! I am so sorry for the delay. I picked it up from Joann Fabrics
@@littleantiqueme8714 thank You!!
Thanks for sharing
Of course, thank you for watching
I wonder how you fix it to the head, elastic cord, pins or combe? Mine doesn't stay when dancing.
THANK YOU! Very much!!!

when sewing are you doing a running stitch or back stitch???

Love it. May I make it into my version for my channel? I’m not a sewing person like you. I’m a glue gun person.
Sure! That would be fun to see another take on the hat and another way to make up! ❤️
I'm gonna try this! I have a bunch of aviation safety wire that should work! LOL
Lol, that should actually work perfectly!
Perfect! This is just what I’ve been looking for, thanks
So glad it helped! Happy hat making! ❤️
Lovely tutorial! Looking forward for more of your DIY's on vintage hats! Greetings from Mexico City!
Thank you so much for watching! I’m hoping to make more soon! Hello and welcome to my channel! ❤️❤️
I am nervous, but I am going to try and make myself a fascinator.
You can do it! Take it slow and steady ❤️
I was wondering how you fix it to the head?
you're amazing!!! this is truly lovely, gal.
Quinesia Johnson thank you so very much! ❤️❤️
Thank you! Just what I've been looking for.

Beautiful hat. It looks like half a moon 🤗🙈
Thank you! It sure does! ❤️
lovely hat, but how do you secure to your head?
Thank you! I either use a hat pin on the side, or I Bobby pin it from the back.
What decade was that style of hat?
What is this particular type of hat called ?
Hi! Beautiful! Can be made from sinamay?
Sorry for the delay! It may work, never know until you try! I would love to hear if it works! ❤️
Amei seu canal! Continue

great little headpiece - what sort of wire did you use for this plzzz
Hello! Sorry for the delay! I used a medium weight jewelry wire. I hope this helps!
