Profile Information

I Love Hats Because?: I actually have a hat fetish. I have a closet full of them and one is circa 1826. I was a hat model when I was in my 20's and love them because they are so classy, now I love fascinators and Victorian style hats.

About Me: I am an artist, writer, jewelry maker and leather maker. Hats will just be an extension of all of that for me.
