The completed Slouchy Hats are on the top of the page. I've always intended to create these adorable hats to be adorned properly. Fully customizable from start to finish as with Anything I would create for you.
The first of many. Mind you, this hat took months to create. I do not follow someone's patterns to ANY degree. More details, obviously, on the new page.
While "building" the Rasta Hat
(only using my own planning &
patterns), the thought naturally occurred that I should bring you into how & WHY I choose every bit of the creation. This is Super-Great advice that I wish I'd had decades ago. Please be patient with the progress of this page. Please offer your own advice and comments!!! Everyone's thoughts added are only a PLUS and appreciated.
Consignment Shop. Eventually these items will be in their own
location.
This is Edith. She is
a Pretty Bee on a
gilded spoon.
I'm featuring
my beautiful
daughter's
creations - on her
very own page.
She's quite talented.
Check out her work.
She, like myself, is easy to work
with and open to making
custom designs.

The Panda-Squirrel.
Usually, she's very well-behaved but she has her moments...here she's photo-bombing the picture of my honeysuckle.

felted creations as well. She is ~3" tall.

Rasta Hats--
Rasta Fashions
The longer, striped hat (above) was inspired by my beautiful daughter, Alyx Eddins. She proudly wore dreads and like her mom, is making her mark on the world she lives in. Blessed with big hair and it's challenges this hat is perfect in keeping the style well fashioned.
Adult Bibs - stylish, easy to wear and wash - (Scotchgarded so that they are stain-resistant) and a pocket to catch dropped food. Easily customizable - fabric/size, etc.
Mom's work, This adorable hat is crocheted. Boho. Definitely could be as is or add flowers.
Whatever your theme for your special occasion, these personalized invitations not only give your special guests a sneak-peek but a keepsake of their own to treasure.
This is one of those accessories that can be truly YOUR own design.
Perfect for coordinating your bridal parties accessories...and certainly one that can be worn everyday as well.
​
Versatile!! Have a variety of them to accessorize every occasion.

School colors are a great idea...
This is Saint Bonaventure's University (Allegany, NY) colors, for example.
"See a Need and Fill It"...that's my constant duty and I Love what I do. There isn't probably too much more out there in this world that I feel is more satisfying. Improve...build up...re-purpose...be happy....help others enjoy the fruits of life, what more can we do?
Again, with God's gifts, we do what we can, in the most positive way and....just DO. This is what I do. Enjoy.
