Projects: Wig/Hat hybrids!

As you may recall from past posts, my millinery class' most recent unit was on wig/hat hybrids--wigs either composed from nontraditional materials or utilizing millinery precepts, or both. The students presented their projects this past week, and i thought my readership might like seeing some of the photographs of their finished work.
