Derby Hat......

   This weekend is the Kentucky Floral Convention in Frankfort. Once again I'm in charge of the designers and the design room. We have designers coming in from all over the United States. I enjoy being in the design room, you're able to see first hand how the design is developed and you get to know the designer personally. I've made some great friendships over the years and keep in touch with them.
   Our theme for the Saturday night gala is, Derby. You can dress for millionaire row or for the infield. I choose millionaire row. Not wanting to wear a huge Derby hat, I designed a Fascinator hat. I did research on designs and came up with my own. I went through some totes left from the my flower shop, found the tulle I wanted and a few other things. I think my Fascinator looks great. I showed it to Linda and Denise and they loved it. Denise said it would be great for the Prom.
   The Fascinator is becoming popular by Princess Kate. Usually designed on a small hat or a head band fits to the side of your head. Not having a wig stand I placed the Fascinator on one of my bears so you could see it. I will take pics on saturday night and you can see it better.
