Olivia
This is the time of year where I have all these things to do, but I find I can’t quite focus on them. I just find myself wanting to make new pretty things for next season. This is my new headband fascinator. Her name is Olivia. I have a few posted up on my etsy…

Read MoreThe Salvation Army Pirates
Poor Dusty. My little 5 year old warrior is trapped with pacifist parents. Over the years Dusty has taught me that resistance is useless and that there is no way to stop him from expressing his desire to shoot.

Read MoreHappy 100 to me
In January it will be 2 years since I posted my first item on etsy. I never thought it was possible to sell a hat over the internet. Well, today I sold my 100th hat on etsy. I guess I was wrong. At the risk of sounding like a walking advertisement. I LOVE ETSY. It’s…

Read MoreBefore
When we first came to Lunenburg a bit over a year ago we moved to the bottom floor of a house site unseen. Turned out to be the most perfect little neighbourhood. Dusty would sit on the stoop and chat with all the neighbours, greet every passerby and enjoyed the thrill of crossing the street…
Read MoreCustomer of the Year
Things are calming down around here. I am now finishing up some small, manageable orders and going into hyper mommy mode. My evenings are spent making a dragon costume for Dusty. Oh, sorry, that’s FIRE BREATHING DRAGON costume. The tail is really impressive. Now that I actually have time to think I have started thinking.…
Read MoreFront Page
Two nights ago I clicked on etsy to check in and there was my darling Priscilla fascinator on the front page. It’s such a thrill. Feels like winning the lottery. The amazing thing was, though, that I had that day randomnly found this other talented milliner’s blog. Her blog is called Glorious Hats. It was…
