"Mad Hatter" hat...

[grrr betsy]

In the weeks after graduating from college and before going to a weekend long festival/costume-worthy camping event I found this crazy lamp shade at the Goodwill Bins thrift store and thought that it would be just a way silly hat! So I gathered other items from the bins to decorate with (leaves and flowers and such)... Somewhere along the line we realized that since my roomies were dressing up Alice in Wonderland themed, this would make a fun "Mad Hatter" costume... I just hot glued everything on, it worked great, the damn thing fell off my head a few times and it survived fantastically!

I also made a tutu type skirt to wear with it...

Looove it! Hats are my favorite, and this one is grand!
