We’ve been having one of the grossest summers ever.
That has been our daily view at noon.
30°C + thunder storms = hot, humid, muggy ew = frizzy, huge hair for me – blech
The only solution to tame my unruly locks?
Jam a hat on & hope for the best.
Here’s how to cute-up your own frizz-cover in 10 minutes flat with The Patchwork Rainy Day Cap:
Grab that newsboy cap that’s been sitting in the refashion-stash & dye it if necessary (this one used to be a rather dingy white).
Pick out some nice scraps.
Fold over 4 – 5 times & cut a half-oval shape from one corner of the fold to the other creating a petal shape (or leaf if you prefer).
I used a couple of different fabrics & petal sizes for layering.
Arrange the petals on the top of your hat.
Stitch them on.
Once all of my petals were secured I stitched a spiral all the way around the edges ending up in the center of the top flower.
Add a simple vintage button to the middle & head out in your stylish head covering.
Yay! The sun came out long enough to take a pic.
Boo! The rainy clouds returned!
