I bet you never thought of making a functional hat out of them! That's exactly what Fay did with her beloved stuffed animal, she just couldn't part with. She gave this one a second life and now it gets out of the house more than ever before! Can you say: recycle, re-purpose, reuse? Mind you creating the pattern for the inner lining, putting it together and making it fit right on her head was a complicated project!
I am always happy to see my students' projects come to life throughout the year, but I have to admit end of semester really brings the treasures out! This DIY hat was presented in my Accessory Design class at Parsons as a part of the final project. You gotta love Fay for being true to her colorful unique personality on a day she wasn't feeling well!
I have another group of students presenting tonight! Needless to say I cannot wait
