My mom bought some goodies at an after Halloween sale for 90% off. One of those items was a top hat. She bought it for my husband but that is just a laugh. When I saw a steampunk hat at Silver Dollar City I knew what I needed to do with that top hat.
My grandmother let me have a few things from her sewing room and I had gotten some lace. I decided to put a few layers of lace to go under the goggles. I have tons of cameos so I found one that I thought would work well. It was in a gold frame with a brown cameo.
I decided the back looked a tad bit boring. A small bow out of lace would hide the seems. I hot glued it on the back.
Materials
Top hat
Goggles
Three sizes of different color lace
Step one
Wrap the thickest lace first and hot glue in back
Step two
Follow with the next thickest size of lace.
Step three
Add goggles. Follow my goggle tutorial to see how I made mine.
Step four
Make bow.
Step five
Glue bow over seams of lace
Step six
Add cameo. Mine was a pin. Hot glue should hold it.
Now the biggest trick will be finding a place to wear it!
Where do you wear yours?
