Antique ribbon work-a love story, part 2. As promised, I am sharing my collection of 1920's hats with you. All of them feature beautiful ribbon work. I think you can appreciate the workmanship that went into each one just by looking at the photos, so, for once in my life, I'm going to pipe down and let the photos speak for themselves.

So I decided to give it a go and create my version. There are two main differences between the two: 1. 2. The idea of the canvas is that during the day (ie. with the Christmas light off) you have a beautiful sculpture while at night (you guessed it, with the Christmas lights on!)
How about a tutorial?

I decided to go with the same flower theme as my inspiration piece.
