Juice Festival

Since the start of my Millinery Module I have been working on a live project where I have designed and made a Willy Wonka hat for the Juice Festival in Newcastle. This is my first hat and it was made from a wool felt hood and blocked. The lollypops and candy canes were made from pipe cleaners and the sweets in wrappers were made from cellophane, foil and pompoms

Millinery

We have started our millinery project and I have decided to produce the hats from the 2006 film Maria Antoinette which is set in the 1700s. Here is an image of my first blocked hat from felt made blocked for the Juice Festival.
