The Hat is Done ...

I wrapped it up Tuesday night and let it dry, gave it a good coat of acrylic polymer (matte) varnish) and went to bed. Yesterday I put it in its box along with my entry for our county. I added my bio, which was required. Then I took it to a friend who has a photography studio and we shot pics of the hat and me (also required.)

Today I take it over to the Farm Bureau office at the county fairgrounds and bid it farewell. I showed it to another pal yesterday, and took it over to show my mother. They seemed to like it alot.

Now, back to my own pursuits. This thing took two whole weeks!

What are those pink and red things next to the ear of corn? Oh wait. One is a very nice pig, but that red thing looks like seafood.

It occurred to me that if I lived in the county down in southern Ohio where Ohio University is located, I would have also had to paint a marijuana leaf on the hat. After all, that area is an agricultural paradise.

Hi Jondude! Hobbie told me about the hat you made. It is real pretty! I like it. I wish it was small enough for me.

Great work...a prize winner for sure!! Very impressive. Did I say that I liked the hat?

comment by looserobes on June 26, 2008 7:41 AM ()

No. I don't do hats anymore. I have a really rare Charlie 1 Horse western hat that I would never paint. It holds enough water to give any horse a good drink. It fits, too, because that is tough with me. I have an 8 and a quarter hat size. Every serious 'cowboy' must own a Charlie 1 Horse. Just like having a pair of Tony Lama boots, you ain't a real cowboy without one. Wrangler boot jeans complete the wardrobe. Of course, it helps to have a horse and saddle.
