• Covering a Headband Project by Michelle@Petershams
• Jinsin Saucer Hat Project by Catherine Ellen
• Freeform Fascinator Project by Ann Morse-Brown (instead of Sinamay I used Dantel (lace) fabric

HATalk articles and project help me a lot to designed and created this headpiece. Also, I tried to bring new innovation and new style in my works, by using different materials and techniques. It’s my goal to showing new method of work. For example, to create an umbrella I inspired by Jinsin Saucer Hat, but instead of Jinsin fabric I used cotton fabric. I tried to show the different way and rules of creation.

I really love to work with wire to create and forming new shapes in 3D. Working with wires give me a chance to design incredible shapes and freeform fascinator. For this article also instead of Sinamay I used Dantel fabric (lace fabric) to cover the wires to show fine and elegant in this creation.

For covering headband, I already done in a different method by using my style, instead of wrap ribbon around headband, I sew the ribbon in straight way.
