Sadly, I have not entirely completed the dreadful list from my last post (and truth be told, I have added to it), but I have made tremendous progress — despite the gray days in the interim. Sunshine is my drug of choice, and I haven’t been getting my fix lately. Mercifully, today is gorgeous. And I had a gorgeous young model and a photographer friend for a photo shoot in the park. It was a perfect combination of creative people with rock-climbing and jumping adventures available to distract the boys. I only have a few hats and accessories for my grand etsy opening, but a few is something. Here is a preview of what’s coming.

About oohlalids
I am a private piano teacher with a Master's degree in piano performance and a very full studio, but I have always loved hats and making beautiful things. In 2004, I bought a Vogue hat pattern and stayed up half the night making my first hat. I wasn't crazy about the results, but I was completely hooked on the process. Since then, I have made at least one hundred hats, most of my own design. I constantly tinker with shapes and materials, exploring different historical eras and objects from everyday life and nature for inspiration. In this blog, I plan to share my latest creations, insights and observations from my creative process, some of my adventures in decorating, remodeling and flea-marketing (yay!), and possibly a few tales about being a girly-girl in an otherwise all-boy household.
