Slap-dash Haberdashery

"

Felted “after surf’ hats-The red ones are new today.

Slapdash – A jury-rigged repair. Anything held together with duct-tape, bubble-gum or baling wire…(Anything )…put together by a hack…. ( http://www.urbandictionary.com )

Haberdashery – the artful design, creation and selection of fine hats,.. ( http://www.urbandictionary.com )

At the moment I’m the  Salty Hack – Artful Creative Hatmaker…

I’m kind of wingin’ it. These two, made just today, are made for the sailors and surfers in my life. They’re a little plain but made to order.   While stretching out a soggy damp hat on my head, Spike seems to approve! ( Or maybe he’s just curious as to why I smell oddly like a wet sheep..)

Spike is holding my glasses on for me..

Spike is holding my glasses on for me..

Just a quick note to say  how much fun I’m having….but somebody tell Steve Zissou  that I’ve found one of his  deckhands hiding in my shed!

"Have you ever been to sea Billy?"

“Have you ever been to sea Billy?”

More to come,
