Yesterday, while Marietta sweltered in the mid-90's, some friends and I got together and created some fabulous witch hats. We threw open all my ribbon bins, fabric samples, and various this and thats, and started creating. Even with identical hat forms---and working side by side---they were all different in color and creative edge. The top one was a frothy sensation of purples, hot pinks and black and white. Kind of like a Halloween tribute to My Fair Lady.
These two were done by artists ages 10 and 11. Can you believe the creativity and style from those ages? The one on the left was cloud of turquoises and greens with some swirling funky fibers. Very mysterious. The one on the right was a popping mixture of lime green, orangish red, and black and white. Both witches will be getting plenty of notice! Ck. tomorrow for part 2. More hats will be posted as they get photographed.
Fabulous hats. Fabulous friends. Fabulous afternoon.
