I wasn't about to spend over $50 for a hat that fits.
Sometimes, it's just more cost effective to do it yourself. Since I've got one hat (besides stocking caps) that actually fits me, I was in the market for a new one. After browsing online, I found a nice one, but it cost $54 USD. I've never spent that much on a hat, so I didn't want to start now.
I decided to get creative and see if I couldn't make my own version of it. Sure enough, I got a great new hat, and it only cost me $7 USD. My savings = $47 USD. After using five bandanas, some discarded wire, and an ice cream bucket, I've got a great new hat to rock. I sure like it! What do you think?

LOL - Let's hope STEEM don't drop to the point where someone is willing to pay about 500 STEEM for a $7 hat... even if I did make it!

Hehe people spend more than that on branded clothing that I’m sure cost around the same in materials.

hahah, well in that case it would be time to buy but i'm really starting to wonder who's behind the sabotage ... warren buffett or EOS ? doesn't seem like a dump & slump even 100.000 plankton accounts could achieve over such a short time. Someone with lots of mullah is shorting it en-masse ... i wish i had 25k to throw at it right now lol, i would seriously do that. The ace of spades hahah ... i'm gonna keep that to give to my mother when they get back. I'm not quite the handymman with stuff that doesnt have cables and buttons attached to it :p.
So we HOLD until someone understand they're breaking peoples livelihood who dont have much else when it comes to money, but somehow i think those competitive psychopaths up in the cloud could care less for guttertrash and alleycats downhere hahah ... we're gonna have to help ourselves again :p
if it sticks to one dollar they're gonna have an image problem if people make total income on something that's exactly a dollar lol ...
and thing is, if someone is selling then someone is buying right ? you can't dump the price without a buyer so this open ledger thing clearly doesnt show who, EOS might have just taken one of their billions they got from selling hot air without one line of code written and put it in a circle, disregarding the collateral damage downhere, or maybe a disgruntled ex witness
or maybe warren buffet and his rat-poison theory, i know this : if it were at like half the price of when i started right now, i could almost sustain myself and give the finger to the state and the employers lobby .. maybe that's the problem :)

Talented you are, I say! Nice hat brother. That's seems to be one skill you've got out of the way? Hell, you could even make a lil' fiat off those if you were to sell them here as there seems to be interest in the comment section? Looks good brother. Nice job!

Hats don't cost that much! ....do they?
I am so out of it on prices, we have become something of extreme minimalists and uber recyclers! Love to see the craft projects, you spent 7 dollars, saving 47, then made a post about it, you might come out ahead on this one ;p
May God continue to BLESS you and your family!

I think this making a hat idea it is fantastic, creative, and inspirational.
The only thought I kept thinking, is instead of the white stitching, if you used thin fishing line, maybe it would be more transparent? I don't know.
