My amazing bridesmaids are throwing me a Mad Hatter Tea Party bridal shower next weekend. Yay! So today I made my mad hat to wear to the party. Here's the dress I'm going to wear.
I'd just picked up a cute little wicker fedora at Target for the honeymoon so I wanted to deck that out. It already had a pink band and pink under the brim. With all the pink I decided Cheshire Cat was the way to go. I wanted to make some felt cat ears. I also found a tiny pink fur boa and some spring-y decorations.
I thought I'd be able to just poke tooth picks through holes in the wicker. I really didn't want to ruin my hat. Then Mike suggested pins, like the pile of shirt pins we had left over from his for the wedding. Genius!
Pretty good, huh? I think it'll be really nice with my dress. I'm really excited about my shower. More than the wedding at the moment because I'm not in charge of this party.
Can't wait to see the pics from the shower; love the hat. Your creativity impresses me, Katie, you've really worked hard for this huge life-changing step. Best Wishes.
