My Personal Open Crown Hippie Hat

When I first started upcycling western hats, this is one of the first big successes of mine. I liked it so much that I kept it for myself. I have a small head, and I’m short so most hats are too large, unless they’re adjustable. This one was perfect…21” and with a pad under the sweatband, it was nice and snug. Now my husband asked me if I really need “all these hats” and I had to give it some thought. The answer is, no. I don’t really need 7 hats. As a result, I’m listing my oldest, cherished hat. It’s been burned, the brim trimmed, etched, and sanded. I’ve sewn on a cobra skin band, and two wild turkey feathers. I didn’t name all my hats back in 2021, so it’s unnamed. It has my WC logo burned onto the brim, however. The crown is about 4.5” and the brim is about 3.25”. I think it’s a cool hat. Size small, about 21” and can be made smaller with sizing pads if needed.
