"Nobody wants to look at me." That is absolutely not true. You are a good looking woman and you have put so much effort into your outfit, and those glasses are stunning. But hey, even if you weren't a joy to behold, you clearly have so many other talents that display a depth of character that is of far more worth than your appearance.
Incredibly helpful video right here! Your talents clearly don't stop at hat making. You have a great personality and a natural knack for teaching. Keep em coming!
Very interesting and helpful. As a complete millinary novice, your way of explaining makes it so easy to follow. Thank you.
I just went to watch some more of your videos but you didn’t have any, you should make more this is very interesting.
Man! I would kill to be able to spend a weekend getting a more Hands-On experience of learning how to do this! I have been obsessed with hats for over 20 years now and the idea of making my dream hat is so enticing!
This has been the most helpful 101/beginner style video I have seen so far! Thanks for posting!
This tutorial was very informative. Thank you. You're so personable and I like your running commentary - you called it ramble (lol) but it wasn't rambling at all. It was informative commentary and that kept me engaged. I also like that you gave the reasons for or against what you were doing. I would have love to have seen you shellac one of the hats & show the result Thanks for mentioning and showing the cheaper options for a wig block. The wooden blocks are so expensive so it's nice to know there are cheaper options around. . .

As an hat enthusiast, this changes everything!!!
I had bought a Hat shaper and I was using the steam of the Ion to shape it. It was working but not as well as when I used the Tea Kettle!! it did wonders! I'm so happy!!! I'm watching all your videos .. next step is for shellac so I will comment on that video on my progress.
Exactly the type of video I was in need of, thank you!
I am inspired after watching you teach hat making. Hat making is something I have wanted to do for years but thought it would be too expensive; that I would need to go to university, or some other expensive learning institution. I love wearing hats and I make crochet hats. I even made a straw hat once. Now, after watching your video, I will be getting started making hats. Wow! I am excited. Thank you so very much for this video. I am subscribed.
make more videos! i like how much you share on the subject, and you keep it light-hearted. pin-up vibe going on lol. i want to learn all i can!!
Cool video I've got a couple fedoras I've done myself. Big time fan of hats. 140 in my collection so far.
Do you make for others?
This is fantastic, very informative, and you have a wonderfully pleasant voice to listen along to!
Everyone want to look at you, you are a nice person, love your style 💚💎
I just started making Amadou leather from mushrooms and want to make a hat. This video was very well done and so informative, thank you! Great work!
This was very helpful! Can you do a video on trimming the hats? Different types of bows, etc..
Excellent. You have a wonderful on screen presence. This is extremely interesting.
She is so cute! Extremely helpful totally attainable!
Thanks so much, I am going on a hat making course next week, and thanks to you I feel I know one up from 0. Great video
Very informative and enjoyable. Thanks for sharing. Keep safe and well. ❤️ Lynne
Bless you gal! Thanks for your video. 🙏
Absolute hunny. Easy to listen and follow
Thanking you!
Hi, I met you at the Mt. Dora Steampunk show. Just got a chance to check out your video
Very informative! Love the details!
Very intresting... Thank you for this video. I dress a bit essentric but love my hats. I am however extremely picky, because I don't like Fedora's I am more of a homburg hat person.. I get mine custom made at Baron Hat shop in California where they have been making hats for Hollywood since the 1920's. I have two homburg hats and one Durby. But I have been wanting a short top hat for a long time.
I also love your outfit by the way.. Continue to be your creative self, God only know there are very few of us left. 💘💘
Great video,more please😊
Right place at right time to find what you want I did find a apron at harbor friegh that almost looks like yours....it has leather pockets which will be great for my stone carving, painting and other hobbies I enjoy....mikelle newyork mom😷👋🕵️♀️
Great video can you do another video if you haven't already on 1. How to determine size 2. How to add wire and what gauge 3. Tips How to shellac inside. Thanks
Very informative and perfect for at home
Thank you so much! You answered so many questions 😁
Thank you so much. Hope you make some more Tutorials❣️
Great video very informative!!!!!!!!!!
This is great!!! Would love to see more about hat making. Thanks!!
Thank you for sharing your talents with us 🤗
Amazing work!
Great video 👏
This was great! Thank you!
What a sweetheart you are--no reason to be shy cause we love you and appreciate your time, help, and skill you're sharing. Excited to find your site. Question: Can I take an old wool coat to make hats? I especially need help with making children's hats. Suggestions or advice. Thanks pretty lady! Subscriber from Florida.
You could use wool coat to pull and make a hat with care and patience. Just keep it wet while working!! The easiest thing to start with is getting something you can pull the felt over to give it a round shape. You need to keep it hot and wet while shaping to keep it from ripping.
Very interesting, thank you!
I don´t know if you already did a Fedora Hat video, but if you haven´t, could you do a tutorial?
Thank you I'm inspired you are amazing
This was great!
I really enjoyed this video and learned quite a lot! I didn't realize there was a free-form method!
When you first started, you started with a bowl like piece made out of fur felt.. how did you get that material to become a bowl first??
there are two types one is called a hood (without a "brim") and the other is called a capline and they come pre worked so they are easier to work with. If you start with a plain piece of felt there is a peaked dome shape that is used to work the felt - it has to be thicker than what you would want to end up with or you will have holes
May I suggest a lighter color for the next one. This dark color is difficult to see.
I would love to see a video on re-shaping a hat. I left a wool hat in my car one day in Summer, and it was upside down on an object that crushed out the edge of the crown on one side. The other side is still nice and stiff, but the crushed side is soft and bent. I thought of cutting an oval disc of wood and shoving it into the hat after steaming the soft side....or maybe pulling the whole thing down over a rounded edge and making a really tall bowler.
Here you go :D ua-cam.com/video/TcpnpcGvy5A/v-deo.html
This was informative, thank you. :)
So I got a wool country gentleman's fedora out of a clean out that was in a trash bad. Real nice hat but the wool is a disaster.... So frizzy... How can I fix that? Do I trim the frizz or what?
it depends on what type of wool , it may need to be cleaned, treated and sanded down to get that pilly/frizzy bits off. But depending on the type of wool they may have tried to make it fuzzy and the fuzz may have fallen off. It's hard to tell not seeing it. there are places that do hat repair- seeing it in person they can give you the best advice on how to best bring the hat back to life.
What if your small and you want one
I’m so inspired by you Hannah❤️ I hope you’re doing well and feeling well. You’re such an amazing woman! I hope you can find a milliner to make a custom hat for you❤️
Calling the pandemic a kerfuffle is legendary
I tried signing up for the manhat co couldn't get through to even register... Oh well great video I'm into hats in a big way.
The owner's name is Raymond - Really nice guy If you want to order anything you can call them directly and/or send them an email they are only open on the weekdays - I usually follow up with a phone call after I send the email.
Pish posh, of course people want to look at you! You’re lovely! 🥰🖤🤗
Hi, Bunny. Your video is really well-done. I like that you show the techniques clearly. You mentioned that you are in Florida. What city are you in? I am new to hat making and am working with raffia. Do you know where I can find a hat block for a boater type crown that would not be super expensive like a wood block? I would like it to be the size of my head also: 21 1/2". I want to do a red fedora hat also, and need a hat block for that as well that I can afford.
You did a great job! I couldn’t be more proud of you! ❤️❤️
Down bad
how do you make the brim stiff
I use shellac and millinery wire.
Great video! I thought you were just adorable and explained everything so simply! Such a big help. Wondering where I could find the more high quality/fine beaver felt capelines/bodies? I am trying to make myself a high quality cowboy hat! Thanks! :)
the beaver is much harder to find- Leko sells a beaver rabbit blend: www.hatsupply.com/beaver-rabbit-blend-dress-hat-body/ You can get the 100% in Germany www.hatbodies.com/product/beaver-capelines/ Quite a lot of the suppliers went out of business unfortunately.
Спасибо за вдохновение🎉❤
Could I make a wooden mould and iron it to shape that way? I would like to make an Amish hat, I think hat making is amazing thank you for sharing.
Steam is always the way to go with shaping - when you use an iron the hat needs to stay wet when you add heat to avoid burning or ripping of the felt
Muchas gracias !!!
Cool, thanks. 👍
Thanks ❤️
Thank you 😊
i checked all of your links but couldnt find any of those black plastic hat forms/blocks. where could i find some?? thank you for the videos... keep em coming!
gotta fix that thanks! hatshapers.com/
@@GreenBunnyHats yea i found them. thanks! keep making your vids :)
Hi,thank you very much for your nice work.where we can find this hat pattern and all the size too.
🌹🌹🌹🌹
Hello, can you tell me where did you buy the wool felt and the fur felt, please? I dob’t know what I should buy
Manhatco or Judith hat supply :)
Hi there! Very nice video! I was wondering if you can use wool felt instead of fur felt for the shaping, like you did with the first hat in the video?
You already said it, nevermind ;)
That book rulez
Come back and make more videos! Thanks so much !
could you use an iron to steam it, instead of just buying a steamer?
Tea kettles are useful for the steam if you can't buy a steamer the iron steam doesn't get hot enough for felt
So, since the Fabri-fix contains acetone, does that mean it's unsafe for synthetic fibers/plastic based fibers?
I haven't had too much of a problem using it on synthetic fibers- I always do a test when I use it on something new.
Also, how do you go from having that floppy shape that you pulled over the hat shaper to having a straight brim? does the brim have to be steamed straight, or will just adding a wire and stiffeners make it straight? Or if you want to make a hat with a straight brim, should the brim and the crown be two separate pieces sewn together?
Heavy starch
@@karenpereira7797 interesting
I use millinery wire and the shellac to stiffen the brim - you can use quite a bit to make something hard as a rock! I steam the brim flat with heavy duty irons and lots of water. The crown and brim can be one piece or separate depending on what you are making. My top hats are always two pieces but I can do a fedora with just one capline.
Green Bunny Hats that’s really cool!! Thank you for responding
thank you
Could you tell me where you got your apron from I love it as a mom I'm doing painting and many craft stuff I end up being messy and I went on to Duluth company for spring but they didnt have what I need available with pockets or color...thank you for tutorials I love hats..👋.mikelle newyork mom learning new skills👍🕵️♀️😷🦋
I actually bought the apron from a restaurant- they had their waiters wearing them and I had to have one!
good morning. Here is Marcelo from Ilhabela SP Brazil. I want to start hat production as a hobby. Kindly provide addresses where I can find the tools used in the manufacture of hats. Especially the felt cones. cape line cabling I was quite happy with your recommendation of the book for beginners, I'll look for it here in Brazil. Please feel free to make recommendations. His didactics and expressions are very good, quite enlightening. thank you very much
QUESTION?? I have a red (wool, I think) hat that has a round shape in the top like your form. I do not like it and would like to know if I can steam it, and reshape the top of it into a type of fedora looking hat with the folds and sink in? (like a gambler hat). After I steam it, will it hold its shape or would I have to shellac it? Great job on the video. Was thinking of maybe trying to make one, but I think I'll stick to sewing. Thank you.
Yes you can! you steam it and shape it and leave it over night it will hold it's shape. :D
Hi great video! I’ve been wearing a hat since I was a young child now I would love to make them. I was trying to order your book through Barnes & Noble they were unable to locate it. Could you tell me where you bought your book? If I’m still unable to find it would you be willing to make copies of it? You wouldn’t have to hole punch it I have a hole punch. I would gladly pay you for it. Thanks 🙏🏾
www.hatbook.com/ or amazon has it :D
Do you show anywhere how to sew the wire in and what wire your using?
I need your help to make me a replica hat
Hey I want to know how to make a Jughead hat. Everyone is crocheting them I do not want to crochet one or need it. Maybe I felt or cotton. Can you tell me which block I would use. Oh how I can make it. What are the tools I would need. I can buy one for $44. It had clowns but I like all different colors. I love hats I have at least 30 hats if not more. I am a true Fedora girl. I like them in straw and wool. But I truly would like to make a Jughead hat. 🌝 Can you help me
Where can I buy raw beaver fibers?
That I'm not sure of- I just get mine pre-felted.
Well I know what my next big buy will be , hat making stuff.
How much for hat
I just subscribed yeah...
do you sand felt hats as well as the fur?
The hats that I work with are wool felt and fur felt hats- I tend not to sand the wool felt hats since they end up oddly fuzzy. I do sand the fur felts always to give them a nice even texture and feel.
I enjoyed your video and learned a lot but I don't understand how to get the round shape to begin with. Why did you skip that part?
I will make sure to cover it in the next video! :)
Please, keep doing more videos
Thank you for the video UwU It was very helpful
I was wondering if you can provide any insight on making the design on Zorro's hat from The Mask of Zorro. How could I do that as a DIY project?
You would want a large mens capline - the brim is very big. LOTS of shelac to stiffen after you form your crown and wire for the brim to keep it from flexing, You would need a hat shaper or a hat block for the crown.
hey question if i want to make a hat form velvet should i use the fur felt and then maybe stich on the velvet on the fur felt?
If you wanted actual velvet you would want to do a buckram core form or there is velour which is a velvet type of felt- it acts just like velvet and feels just like velvet - you must be careful you don't burn it. The buckram core is a several piece construction - sharing a video that shows that type of construction from Stephen Jones: ua-cam.com/video/psK2UCttYAQ/v-deo.html
@@GreenBunnyHats omg thank you for helping me
Now I'm confused
nice thanks
Wher can i have that book
amazon and other used online book stores are a good place to go.
Can a feller take a oilskin hat,and remove a couple centimeters frum the crown if its 2 tall fer his likein?
Yes you would have to take the hat apart trim the bottom of the crown put it back together and re block it 😄
@@GreenBunnyHats re block it? Is that sumpthin n e one can do,or should I git skilled help? I can kinda run a thred n needel but don't wanna ruin my lid....
@@ahilbilyredneksopinion this would be something to send to a milliner if you are wary of doing it they can shorten and re block for you
@@GreenBunnyHats thank u...do I just look up a milliner near me,or is there a differnt name fer the profession?
And thanks so mutch fer the info and responses n sutchlike....
@@ahilbilyredneksopinion a hatter or milliner is the term. Hat shops often have someone they recommend for hat repair, as well as some high end suit shops that sell hats

I primarily make men's hats using fur felt.
wonderful resources!
So you never sand a wool hat?
I do depending on the grade- if it's high grade I sand low grade i tend to leave alone
Can I hire you to make me hats for puppets?
Where did you get the industrial steamer?? Brand??
