A Weekend in May Hat Madness Celebration 2015


Giddy as I flipped the calendar this morning.  We all must feel the hope and promise in the frosty air!
Sunday morning sleep in, fresh coffee made for ME! and clicked on my FB to see that a dear, longtime
virtual friend, Christine ( Welcome to my Art ) asked me if a Mad Tea Party was on my agenda.

I settled in with my " Harry Potter" box set movie inspiration, ingnoring the whiteness outside. 
Hmmmmm, that's it!  On my sewing table is a fav pattern I dream of making OnE day!  It's the 
Hat of one of the Aunts in " Practical Magic"! Then the famous Hatter of all came to mind.
I am blessed knowing the most imaginative bloggetts ( you allll know I am thinking of you) so



Please Mark your calendars for the weekend of May 2&3 .   Let's all present our Mad Hat
that will be the envy of all Mad Tea Parties of the Season.  Unique and Marvellous are a must!
They may be hatted for whomever you wish.  I will gather the photo of your creation, present it 
in a collage, and a thank you for participating will be sent to all.  I do hope you join ME!

I love my calendar this year, it was a gift, handmade, each number & embellishment , hand placed
from my creative daughter, Amy.  I appreciate the time, and thought, as well as large day blocks 
to help my scattered mind.




Also ....I purchased a hand crocheted shawl from Ali Bee Creations on Etsy, anticipating warm
Glamourous days ahead!  Beautiful shades of the ocean ( I can only dream) delicate stitches, 
I am eager to dazzle all I meet !!
 
Spring is coming!  IT must!  IT must! IT must!


Hopefulled  Hearts and Scattered Joy!   We made it through a One-Of-Kind Winter xoxoxo

    Your mad hat party has got me intrigued. So much so I want to pinch my son's top hat and decorate it, I would be in big trouble. What a wonderful calendar. A lovely view for every month. Thank you so much for the lovely mention, I hope you get to enjoy some lovely warm days in it. Enjoy your potter marathon.

      You can make Hats from a toilet roll, paper towel, roll or a paper plate!
      Making a real Hat is brilliant, but I do know that is tricky business!
      I have many Art Dolls / Bunnies that could be very happy with a Mad Hatter's Hat!
      I would love to make a real Hatter's Hat....we shall see!

    This is such a great idea, kicking off a mad season with a mad hat :)

    I have no creative energy at all right now, but luckily I already have a real Mad Hat that I made a few years ago - so I would love to join!

    I hope you are well, hugs

    Hmmmm a mad hat! I am so excited to see what hijinks you are up to. I will have to see if I will be able to create one. It is getting lighter earlier in the morning and later at night, and no more super duper freezing temps so I would say that spring is on its way here!
