I made a hat stand!
Apr. 1st, 2014 04:30 pmIt's difficult to photograph hats. We costumers don't really have too many options for stands or models. In the past, I've tried the white styrofoam heads you can get at Hobby Lobby. The female style head is way smaller than the average woman's head, so the proportions are just a little off:

I've seen other costumers use mannequin heads, but I find the typical head has very modern makeup and that's jarring on my eye. Most recently, I've made do with a Pringles container covered in white printer paper (look closely):

( I decided I could make something better. )
