Starting now ,millinery workshops in the comfort of your home! Explore basic millinery techniques that will enable you to create a fascinator and simple headpiece. If you can sew on a button, you can make a fascinator and headpiece. Understand the fundamentals of composition and balance as related to headpieces. Discover millinery materials and techniques to manipulate fabrics and trims. Create your own trims from feathers, fabrics and specialty millinery materials. Work with hat elastics, combs and headbands. Materials will be supplied. Maria sources her supplies from the UK, primarily, and has a lovely selection to choose from. She will also bring hat books with pictures of hats and fascinators for your inspiration. Please feel free to use any extra trims you want to adorn your work with.
