Make a hat! I just finished making a bunch more clay dress and hat charms for our Sweater brooch pins. Most of them were made to fill a special order for
Chum N' Luba's Unique Boutique in our town of Chase. There is a story about how the clay hats came to be. A while ago I ordered a variety of metal base charms in a hat, shoe and purse theme. When our order arrived I was a little disappointed to find these ribbon charms instead of the hats. I tucked them away in a drawer not really knowing what to do with them but thinking they might come in handy some day.
Months later, I pulled out all of our metal charm findings to look for something in particular when I came across the ribbons again. I could suddenly visualize them made into a hat by filling in the parts with clay. So my "ADD" kicked in at that moment and completely forgetting what I was looking for, I had to try and make a clay hat charm. I used a piece of vinyl placemat to create the woven texture.
And here are some more clay dress charms in a few new colors.
