Old into new

It always amazes me how transformative the whole “upcycling” thing can be. Take a look at these before and after pics! I found this (amazingly ugly, who wore bucket hats covered in flowers?) 1950s hat at a rummage sale, and have given it new life as a stunning hair crown.

I have this dream it will end up in some amazing winter photoshoot...perhaps of a girl standing knee-deep in a snowy forest, with her breath clouding the air before her, and some very red lipstick. All against a very gray forest scene. Wouldn’t that be so dramatic!
