Red Felt Heart – Autumn / Winter 2012

This is possibly my most famous fascinator, as I wear this all the time and it’s on my profile picture on my twitter feed.  🙂 A heart is my favourite shape; so I love the simplicity of this fascinator yet but also it’s wearability! I made this block myself using buckram and clay to create the perfect shape.  …

Cream Bow – Spring / Summer 2012

I made this hat at the end of 2011.  Next thing I know Prince William marries Kate Middleton and everyone at the wedding was wearing central worn fascinators!  I was actually a tad cheesed off….as I did this first!  But alas, I like to think it’s just because I am a trend setter 🙂  anyway….here …

Brown Ribboned Fascinator – Spring / Summer 2012

If I told you where I got the inspiration for this fascinator from you may laugh……it was whilst watching Die Hard!  I promise you that!  🙂 I was sat watching Bruce Willis fight the baddies at Christmas at home with the family and I saw all of these explosions and slow motion movement.  To me …
