Hat Making From Found Things & What We Had At Hand In Cyprus


Reflecting upon my week in Cyprus I thought I'd share the stylish hats we created in just three days!
The following hats have been made by European students and myself in Cyprus, on behalf of Grampus Heritage & Training.

Inspired by traditional basket weaving, greece, yellow and tartan, the hats have been made with just about
anything we had at hand!

Some of the peices are
made from basket componants, others from drift wood or plants; they make for interesting
creations!

Romanian Students - Hat Making - Recycled Materials!


Sara Gadd Millinery has been out and about working with Grampus Heritage and Training Limited and their current group of Romanian students....


Grampus Heritage and Training Ltd is a non-profit making organisation based in the North West of England. Since 1997 we have been involved in the management and promotion of European projects concerned with culture, heritage, archaeology and the environment.


Students created unique hats using recycled materials and found objects, their headwear will be worn for a fashion show, with costumes created in the same way!
They have four weeks here to work and discover hidden heritage within out culture!
