While this past Mother's Day weekend it rained (Happy Mother's Day!), for the last week or so it has been simply glorious around here. We're talking summer weather in May! So we have been outside as much as we can stand it. Now, I burn to a crisp in no time at all, but the kids seem to take more after their Daddy and have more resistance. Either way though, we're rocking the sunscreen, cover-ups, shade tents and most importantly, hats. I have to say I'm fortunate that both my kidlets are good hat wearers. Bugaboo is big into fedoras right now (he calls them his 'orra-fedoras', no clue why). My little bean still lets me choose what she wears, so she's been sporting this little number.
I love it; it puts me in mind of a little bluebell.
It's simple enough, so I've started making a few of my own.
I'm tempted to add a little green stem on top, but I haven't given it a try yet.
I've had a friend mention she really likes the style and if I could find a way to tone down the girly-ness, she's love to see some for boys, but while I'm still working on that, I've stuck to good old fashioned bucket hats for the little lads.
Fun stuff! If I do get some good results out of my schemes and alterations, I'll be sure to update!
