- Milliner (hat maker) makes Beauxbatons Harry Potter Goblet of Fire hat (designed and made for the film by Philip Treacy). In this video I will be modifying a plain crown block or poupee head using rope to create a pointy tip witch’s hat. I’ll also modify a mushroom brim block using hair rats. Then I’ll block and put together the whole hat using wool felt. I also made myself an authentic witch’s broomstick to complete the look.

This is my absolute favourite2023 video for SO many reasons!
1. I ADORE this hat and have long wondered how it could be made!
2. I like the lavender you chose even better than the blue original.
3. I was FASCINATED by the way you changed the poupee with rope! I'm always looking for ways to get unusual shapes out of standard blocks.
4. I love swoopy, asymmetrical hats! And this one is especially charming (or bewitching?!)
5. (This actually applies to all your videos -- I just love listening to you. It reminds me of the years I spent living in London and swooning over the hats in Fortnum's and Liberty's! I also adore your "familiar.")
The hat is just darling…and so is your gorgeous kitty!💜😻💜
the hat is PERFECT as is that baby kittie having so much fun with the decorations ♥
Thank you so much 😊 Baby kitten is no longer a baby! She's 1 year old now - they grow up so fast! 🐈⬛
Love these videos!
Do a video how much Adsense pay you! Get you more views
Can you make some tiny hats on head bands
That hat would be lovely with tiny daisy same colour added!
This hat is so perfect! So neat! And a beautiful colour. And Drucilla is an absolute treasure haha
Thank you so much! She is a delight 😊
Such an adorable kitten! 😍
She's such a sweetie! ❤️
Hi, I hope that you get your rest and are feeling a bit less overwhelmed by now. The world is very crazy for the moment and I think you did the best thing by sharing how you feel and deciding to take a break from it all. We will find stability again in a while. I know this because this isn't my first time around the dance floor. We had a time like this back in the 70's and the again in the 80's. 2008 was a wild year too if I remember it right.
I hope that you'll be up for another blocking session soon, because I can't wait to see how the things you did the last time came out, but anything hat related is a treat.
Take your time to rest up, and at least I'll be here waiting for you when you're up to coming back. Yours, Ann
Hi Ann, Thank you so much for your lovely supportive comment. I am feeling a lot better now, I clearly needed that break! There will be another blocking livestream soon, not sure exactly when, but soon 😊
@@ByIlonaMillinery Hi, Good to hear that you're feeling better after the break, take the time you need. Anything hat, or anything related really, is fine by me. I'll be here waiting for you when you are back. I'm really curious how that purple felt hat you made on that weird block and you used hemp rope on, came out. I cannot for the life of me figure out what it's going to look like. Yours, Ann
Beautiful work! Thank you Ilona!
This is one of the greatest videos the world has ever seen.
If that's a bit much I'll just say I appreciate the detail and countless practical tips. I never knew how to cut felt before and I've always been disappointed. Thank you so much!
Hello Rob! Thank you so much!😊 I am so glad that you like all the tips & tricks! ❤️I would really appreciate if you share this video with your friends 🙏
Hi, This is to feed the hunger of the Mighty Algorithm, and for the very cute hat. Edit: and your nifty technique. I have a dream hat that I've not been able to figure out how to make without having to engage a block maker, and part with some serious money. Thank you. Yours, Ann
Very classy. Love watching and learning.
I think stitching the petersham before the brim is a brilliant idea! I will remember that!
Hello Roxann! Yes, I was quite mesmerized when another milliner taught me this order of operations! 😀
This was delightful from the excellent instructions about blocking to the ingenious way you modified your poupee, to the help of your adorable "familiar"!
I also in general love the variety of your lovely manicures in your videos.
More on asymmetrical hats and brims, please!
Thanks Ilona 🥰
I love that hat you have on
Now this is the tutorial I've been waiting for!
This is so pretty! I've always loved this hat❤
Hello! Thank you so much! I love this hat shape too, it's surprisingly wearable for everyday in the Autumn 👒🍂
That hats s beautiful 💜
Thank you ♥️
Very interesting idea to build point tip with the rope! Thank you
Hi Anna! You are very welcome! I hope you give this technique a go!
I'm in love this is so amazing
Thank you 😊
Ohhhh I love it I love it!!
You & Drucilla are my new favorite internet friends! Thank you for sharing in such an honest & fun way! I loved it!
Hello Ginny! Thank you! I shall pass your sentiments onto Drusilla, she loves all her internet fans 😺
I love this video. I'm always looking for models to transform on the usual blocks and this video helps me make 40s models like those used after the war, small, slightly tall hats to place on the head and hooked onto something to fasten them to the head, I hope sooner or later more videos for these models will arrive, I love them so much. Thank you Ilona, you are the best for savoir-faire and ability to explain
Hi Claudia! I am so glad you found this video so helpful! 😊I shall put your suggestions on my list of possible future videos 👒
I like the cat. Of course your hat tutorial too.
bravissima! I love the way you show how to make so easily. I think I am having go with my blocks ! thank you
Thank you! I hope you show me your results!
Good work
I challenge you to make Vinda Rosier hat... Cause I wanna make it😥😓.. But I don't know how....
Challenge accepted! It looks like a very fun hat to make. Maybe for next year's Halloween 😃
I love this technique!
I think you meant to add a card linking to your buckram video at 5:40?
Thank you! And yes! Thanks for spotting that, I'll check it later 😊
I love. you! you are very beautiful and lovely. your videos are entertaining and informative. When I started watching, I could not help but watch more, hahaha. I am a fan of vintage hat and am glad I found your channel! Thanks for sharing. I have subscribed, of course and liked each and every videos I watched. Ps. I have two lovely cats as well so I can relate, hahaha when you say they wanted to help.
Hello! Thank you so much for your lovely comment 😊I am so glad you've found my channel! Cats are the best! 🐈⬛
@@ByIlonaMillinery Thanks for your reply! I just finished my first purple box hat inspired by you. If only I can travel like I used to before the lockdown and before having my 2 cats, I would love to see you in person. I live here in the Netherlands but am a filipina, a granny of 7 hahaha. I was thinking of what you would say with my opening sentence. It is true, I love you but not in a romantic way, I know you understand. I thought you are on your early twenties but when you called "husband" then I must be wrong. I have also watched your other videos, I will be subscribing in your dance. I just watch it in my tv that is why I wasn't able to do it. am watching another video of yours right now. Keep up with your lovely work. More power!!!
Love your channel and this hat. Please do this using fabric, like fedora but with the same type of rim 💕💕💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏
Hello Adriana, I am so glad you love my channel! 🎉 I don't make patterned hats very often, but I think @SHMillinery has a few videos on this topic, including her latest one: czcams.com/video/qO8I976UHh8/video.html
@@ByIlonaMillinery Thank you Ilona ❤❤❤❤
Your lovely hat turned out fabulous! And the color choice is just perfect. My little lady, Lily 🐈 loved watching Drusilla…..will she be getting a matching hat too 😉
Thank you! And oh my goodness how sweet! Tell Lily that Drusilla says Hi! She's a little to small and too wriggly for hats at the moment, but I'm hoping to make her a collection once she's all grown up ♥️
@@ByIlonaMillinery Just passed on the greetings and Lily said……Meeeoooowwww! We can not wait to see Lady D strut her stuff down the catwalk in her fantastic chapeaux 👒🎩👑
Gorgeous! & awe how cUTE is your familiar xx
Hello Hannah! Drusilla is so CUTE! 🐈⬛ She is a very well loved familiar ❤️
Yes yes yes waaaaoooooh
