Witch Hat ~Memento Mori~ Black Velvet and Autumn Decay
$115.00
This handcrafted black velvet witch hat features a satin band that ties through a series of slots to fit perfectly around the cone. At the side is a pin with twigs, a sprig of lavender, a crow feather, and a brass key. This is attached via a pin, allowing you to take it off and decorate yourself if you wish.
Each hat will have a different Memento Mori (translates to "remember you must die" in Latin) card slipped into the band. A gentle reminder to live a lot while you can. This particular card reads "Faith Transcends". There are 36 cards and thus once the cards are gone so are the hats. I pull from the top of the deck so each hat will have its own message for the wearer.
The hat is made with a soft black velvet outer, with the inner lining and underbrim being premium purple felt. Its brim has a slight upward curve, is wired, and finished with satin bias tape. The cone is standing tall and proud.
Please note, some photos do not show the card, some do. One will come with your hat!
There are two variations of this hat in this listing. One has a slight downward slant while the other has a playful upcurve, which is the only difference. The model is wearing the downward slanted one, but the measurements are the same for each.

Frequently Asked Questions
Sizing details
My masks fit children and adults alike. I use a base pattern with a set eye size and spacing. The elastic at the back is approximately 12 inches long for all masks. This is for a fit on different faces, it may be big on a smaller tike or tighter on an adult head. Therefor I consider it one size fits most. The outline of the piece does vary slightly depending on the animal. For instance the fox has whiskers so it's a bit wider than the chicken because it's shape is more rounded. Please refer to photos, no photos available? Send me a convo and I'm happy to help. My pieces are designed for fun and function. Most masks have 2-4 layers of fabric. There are times when all those layers won't work with a design and a single layer will be used.
Care instructions
I use Eco-fi felt that is a material made from recycled plastics. It's surprisingly soft and cleans up well with some mild soap and water.
Wholesale availability
Because I am a one woman working machine I only consider smaller wholesale orders here. Contact me for more information.
Custom and personalized orders
I rarely take on custom orders because it is not cost effective for me. I cut and sew in bulk for my pieces. However if you would like something like a larger elastic or a ribbon instead of the elastic I use than I am happy to accommodate for this type of change.
How does the tail attach?
Each tail has a tab that fits around a pant loop. A belt or sash is then threaded through the normal loops of the pants and it secures the tail into place. Its a two part system for security and allows for fun movement.
Will the crowns fit my childs head?
All of the crown headpieces can be customized to fit your child's head...just put your child's head measurement in the notes section of your order (in inches please!) and I'll make sure its a nice custom fit! For accurate measuring use a tape measure or a string (compare against a ruler when you are done) going around the crown of your child's head where a baseball hat would lay. Viola!
