A New Start - A New Day

Since the birth of my daughter, I have been making things for little girls (a few boys).  I have made bows and tutus, that evolved into dresses and leggings & rufflebutts and that has evolved into today....I think I have found a unique niche and something that satisfies my creative craving. One of a kind Kufi Hats!  I am a one of a kind artist.....so this fits me well.  I take a plain Kufi Hat and use all different sorts of things to decorate it.  Old vintage buttons, pins and clothing, new fabric, ribbon, yarn, flowers, gently used clothing, new pins, handmade buttons....whatever I can find to make an interesting and unique hat for a little princess. I still dabble in other areas than just hats and I am sure I will continue to evolve in the future and new seasons.  So today, I am putting up 20 of my most favorite things I have made in 2009.  Starting tomorrow, I will post a new item that I have made each day.

I will be selling my items on esty.com under Eastyn's Closet in the very near future.
