Am I the only one who collects hats that she doesn't ever wear?  I love hats - to look at.  I never change hats, tending to cling to an old favorite until it is so completely disreputable that it falls off my head.  Or my sister gets hold of it and throws it away....  Anyhoo, in order:

1-2 - I loved the tiny bunny pin on sight.  It is about the size of a nickel, made from wood and elicits a 'squee' response whenever worn.  Which was once.  I am passing the squee along.  Ergo with the moose key ring.  Loved it.  Never used it.  That darn magpie thing again.

3 - I love the classic style of this hat.  However, as noted above, I own a completely disreputable straw cowgirl hat that I will never part with and would feel like a real heel, should I trade it in for something more fetching.  I figure I can squeeze about another five years out of the thing before it disintegrates.

4 - One of those charity swag things.  You know, give x-amount of dollars to us and we give you a hat.  This was supposed to be a one-size-fits-all chapeau which did not.  Apparently, Melon Heads have a classification of their own.  (I blame it on all the brains inside.  Snort.)

5 - A pink John Deere hat?  Me?  Whatever was I thinking!?!

6 - I have no idea where this little holiday loaf pan came from.  But it is going somewhere else, finally.  (Notice Scrappy's tail sailing by...)

7 - Another bright, shiny object that was out of sight/out of mind.  Now out of here.

'Tis good to have it confirmed that my melon sized head means I'm smarter than the average bear . . . not. ;o] Gotta say, you continue to be doing really, really good at your decluttering. Good thing you told us Scrappy's tail was only sailing by, and that he was NOT part of the items up for grabs. I'd have taken him.

Yea. Somehow the John Deere hat is lost on me. A freebie you got? Doesn't fit the image I have of you.

CountryCityCindy said...

Yeah, my husband has a hat collection.... i don't know why...

But the BUNNY IS ADORABLE!

and it isnt like he isnt taking up tons of space...

Okay, I know, I know, Im not helping...

but the Bunny? Pin him to a kitchen curtain! Pin him to that gorgeous sweater of yours! pin him...

Okay, I'll stop now.

*I'd pin him to my sun visor in the truck...*

I agree on the hat thing. I tend to use the same one outside.

Susan said...

Mama Pea - Scrappy and I come as a packaged deal... :)

Susan said...

Sue - And I am NOT a fan of pink!

Susan said...

CCC - Maybe they just multiply on their own in your closet...

Susan said...

Feral - If you want to send me your address....just sayin.

Susan said...

Kristina - I think that, once you get a hat to fit, it's hard to part with it.

I pick up those holiday loaf pans at thrift stores and gift them (with some kind of quick bread in them.) Maybe that's how you got it. Easy way to get rid of it, too. :)

Fiona said...

Is the loaf pan gone? It would be perfect for my Amish Blocks O Butter!

Susan,

I'm like you, I use the same hat all the time. But love to collect hats. I think we should make an art piece using all of our collected hats...........this way we can keep them :-)

Another hat lover here. I hate that they are not considered trendy or "fashionable," but I wear them anyway. I've taken a liking to bandanna scarves lately too - to help keep my head and ears warm!
