    Hat name for the beautiful dark green beret: "Vert de Paris" Discovery of the day. I love naming hats. Who knew?

    “If it works it’s not wrong” is such a good mantra. There’s so much gatekeeping about what milliners are “supposed” to do.

    I live in USA/ Florida and I love hats I became a nurse so I could wear a hat. I wished more people in the us would wear hats. I wear a hat when I’m out . Already had skin cancers removed good luck with your hats. I love them. If u sale brined hats in the summer you should sale the hat keepers so u can attach to your purse when you go inside and it frees up your hand.

    Fun video, I so enjoy all the hats. I don't have a clue what to name the green hat but it's my personal favorite. I can only think of ...green with envy ...or something with "envy" because I would envy any woman wearing it. I'll be looking forward to your next video.

    I just started watching your videos and would like to say your enthusiasm is infectious. Your style ,presentation, and business sense is exciting to watch. Mr Hat is so kind with giving his support and a helping hand, kudos to you both. I like the way you think ahead fo formulate a plan to market and sell your designs, very savvy. It would be easy to name your green beret after a leaf or blade of grass, as it does have a sort of sharp point to it.but I thought if they are made in different colors it wouldn't fit. The folded twirl decoration you've added does remind me of ribbon candy they sell at Christmas, and since they could be in any color.....how about calling it the ribbon taffy beret. So sweet. I think also your marketing idea that more people should try to wear hats should be stated....Why not try a hat. It is fun to watch your videos, thanks so much for learning the fun of hats.

    The 'spears' on the beret could be interpreted as a 'spear' of grass, so perhaps a name related to a plant with long leaves? Perhaps 'Bromeliad Bubble Beret'? ;) fun alliteration, too

    If you buy in Hat Boxes for each Hat sale, you will sell more so buyers can keep their other hats in as well. Or you could make a production line of Hat Boxes for add on sales. I need a good hat box for storage of hats. There’s a market for such.

      Hello Angela, of course you can, I would recommend something small - like a cocktail hat - with a bit of shine, so made with silk velvet or with some embellishment. You've made me realise I have a product gap in my collection! I'll have to create some for next season 🎉

    @annlidslot8212 Před rokem +1

    Hi, So... I need to do something about not getting notifications. Anyway now that I've seen this I'm up to date on your CZcams... I think (se below).
    I have no name to suggest for your speare decorated green hat that couldn't be a copyright infringement (Green Arrow) or very bad taste. Think of a certain quite recent book by a future king's jealous brother, use a upper case letter of the descriptive embellishment on the hat, and run and dial of the bad taste up to max. Not a good idea, I would think.
    Have you shown that beige-ish semi large hat with a thin band on it before and I've still missed one of your posts? It reminds me a bit of a Chanel hat, or a lampshade from the 1970s, if it had been in orange plastic and depending on how your mind is warped, that is. I really like it, your hat not the orange lampshade, but I couldn't see it in your online shop. I'm looking forward to your next video. Yours, Ann
