Hats Away

I think this post covers all of the Thursday Blog Party topics.

I used thrifty hats, the rack is vintage, I did it myself and I had to transform a pile of hats to a "okay again" hat display.

If you aren't interested in any of that you can just skip to my almost 50th post giveaway at the end....

It was a supposed to be easy "how to". It turned out not to be that easy.




This should be easy. Hats on a rack, right?



These thrift shop hats have been hanging on this thrift shop rack for at least 5 years until someone decided they wanted to try one on...then ALL the hats came tumbling down.



Recently I decided I to put them back up and post about how easy this display is to make. Ha. Don't try it with a camera on a bouncy old bed...



Use wire on the insides of the hats so you have something to keep the hats on the hooks. Don't start this project if you are hungry, tired, cranky, or impatient.




Pretend that they are all neatly lined up like you would do it, and just imagine how cute they would look over your bed, doorway, or on your front porch.

  3. I want them. I have some of their relatives and mine would sure like a visit with yours to catch with each other now that they're older and have a better perspective on life! You're funny. You're the greatest. You're my best friend (even though we've never met). You're generous. You're beautiful. Draw my name! Draw my name!

  56. Just got to your blog from The Tattered cottage and I even know how I did it! I'm just finding out about blogs and hope to soon be doing one myself. In the meantime, so glad I found yours. Your hat "adventure" had me laughing out loud! I saw the hats hanging there and the word give away and I thought oh boy! they are so neat and then saw the real give away and squealed--"just like great grandma had!!! I want them! I want them pretty please))). I want them pretty please with a cherry on top!!! Oh, I also put your blog feed on my home page--does that make me a follower??? I really am pathetically blog dumb. Did I mention that you really ARE funny? Pam (richandpamwestbrook@yahoo.com)

Thank you for sharing how you did this...and adding the wire to the hats to hang on the rack...was wondering how you got them all to stay put! wink!

    I love the blue and white graniteware!!! I can just see those pretty pieces arranged with a few old crocks full of sunflowers!!! Please add my name to the pot for the giveaway and I've also become a follower of your blog...so now I'm crossing my fingers...crossing my toes...and even crossing my eyes if it'll help me win! Hehe!

  115. It is after 2 in the morning..I am sitting at my computer...trying to escape into another world...my house flooded july 13 from my dumb washing machine...it sent its flowing stream of unwanted water thru 4 rooms of my house...the clean up is slow but coming along...so while I sit surrounded by piles of my stuff, waiting for the house to be repaired, eating outside on my porch (which is over filled with most of my furniture)...I dream of decorating...geez...and somehow, tonight I stumbled upon this site... and it made me smile... :) ... I have really enjoyed reading the posts and all of the other neat things on it.. I am sorry that I found it too late to enter the granite give away..cause I would have loved to given them a new home, but I am still very happy to have found this special world...this site..I will be back and often...hopefully daily..cause I can sure use the smile that you gave me... hugs to all..cheri

  116. hi,
    i liked your thrify and straw hats. they seem so cute.. also i have some straw hats but it's hard to keep them from dust and also you know that straw hats never enter into the bag... it's hard to carry them if you want to take off it. so i start to design my own hats that's why :D.. i have also some ideas about hats ;) anyway... i liked your photos and the posts... nice to meet you.
    have a wonderful week with the hats ;)
