Identify the hats you want to display on your wall. I used a few hats from my collection and supplemented a new straw hats. They come in sets of multiples, which would be super handy if you were covering a larger space.
Tackle any embellishments or deconstruction you’d like to do. I wanted to remove embellishments that came on the hats so they felt a bit higher end and like unique pieces in the collection.
For the cowboy hat, I removed the plastic bias using scissors. I simply clipped the threads that secured the edging and worked my way around the brim. This created an unfinished edge, but since this hat is likely to be decorative only, I really liked the irregular and imperfect edge.
Simply start nailing small tack nails into your wall. Start with one and place your first hat and work from there. I like an organic placement so, I did not do any measuring. This will allow me to continue to add to the collection.
Build your wall out as much as you like. Or, start small as I did and keep adding to the fun!
