Getting ready for my vacation




I have been making some hats and a beach bag to day. Don´t you think, I ought to bring a straw hat for my vacation in Tuscany? I hear the sun can be wery strong there...
I took the photos with the items placed on the danish magazine, Isabellas, I find it very inspiring, though 1:1 ;-)

    Dear Susanne, I hope you have seen and reviewed, like me, the movie "A Room with a View" by J. Ivory. If it was not, look absolutely before you leave!
    These hats bring me back to scenes in Piazza della Loggia, the shadow of the giant eyes of marble, David...
    I hope you spend happy days full of inspiration, here in Italy :-)

    Thanks for your very nice comments!
    I am afraid there is only one bag 1:12, lots of you write "bags" ;-)
    Flora: Thanks for the tip, I remember the movie vaguely, I loved it, didn´t remember it was Tuscany.
    I think Caterine might bring a straw hat along on her journey too..
    Love, Susanne

    Wonderful Hats, I was just at a heritage village with my kids today and these are very true to the orgional style. Just wondering how you make them or what you make them with?

    Love the hats and bag, it was difficult to see that it is a magazine shot, I thought you had made the distressed chest too, very clever photography!

    Hehe, I used to do that too :) The photography is great and your hats are spectacularly flawless. I have to make one too :) and haven't the faintest idea how to start. Will have to figure it out soon :).
