This Beautiful Felted Wizard Hat with Dragon Tail has gorgeous ombre color and swirling organic movement. And while you could and should wear it to a costume party, you might also want to put it on a plinth to display. Yes, it's that yummy!
COLOR:
• The color of this hat transitions from acid green at the base, moving to turquoise blue at the tip. There are shiny chartreuse-green silk fibers felted in along the fins and tail.
SHAPE:
• The tall hat is worn asymmetrically with the brim dipping down on one side, reminiscent of a 1920s cloche. There are two flippers or fins on the hat; one on the front and one on the back. While the fins can move, they are discreetly sewn to stay up. At the tip of the hat, there's a fishy tail that turns downward. There's millinery wire attached so you can gently bend and shape your tail.
SIZE:
• Headsize MEDIUM to LARGE: fits a range of 22.25" / 56.5 cm to 23.25" / 59 cm.
• The hat measures 18" / 46 cm in height and 11" / 28 cm in width.
• It is a medium thickness of felt and weighs 6.3 ounces / 179 grams.
Inside the hat, there's a wide purple-colored grosgrain ribbon with a drawstring that can be used to adjust the hat and make it slightly smaller, if needed.

Care
Of course, you can wear your hat in the rain. After all, felt is made with soap and water, yet naturally resists water. However, if your hat gets drenched, please air dry it by sitting over a wine bottle, so that the brim can retain its shape.
What is Felt?
What is Felt?
Each FeltHappiness Hat is entirely handmade and created from soft Merino wool fibers using the technique of wet felting. It's an ancient and simple craft that takes patience and lots of kneading to shrink the fibers into a strong, flexible, and warm felt. To learn more, see HERE.
In addition to insulating, wool naturally resists water. Hence, your felted hat will keep you warm in chilly weather and dry in light rain. Plus, wool resists mildew, dirt, and fire!
It's magical stuff!
Measuring Your Head
Measuring Your Head
Every head has its own unique size and shape, which can be measured with a flexible tape measure or even a piece of string.
Take the tape measure and encircle your head, just above the top of your ears. Make sure that the tape measure goes over that small bump at the back of your head. Please don't pull it tightly. Leave a little 'ease' so that one finger can fit under the tape. An ear-to-ear measure can be helpful too.
Measure three times: it is surprising how it can vary!
Inches or centimetres are fine.
Sustainability
Sustainability
Wool is a highly sustainable and eco-friendly material. Sheep grow their wool continuously and need to be shorn regularly for their own health and comfort. This means that wool is a renewable resource, and the production of wool does not harm the animal.
In addition, wool is biodegradable, which means that it will naturally decompose over time and will not accumulate in landfills or oceans. This makes wool a great alternative to synthetic materials that take centuries to decompose and contribute to environmental pollution.
Moreover, wool is an excellent insulator, which means that it can help to reduce energy consumption by keeping us warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It is also naturally flame-resistant and has antibacterial properties, making it a safe and hygienic choice for clothing and bedding.
Overall, wool is a sustainable and natural product with many benefits for both the environment and consumers. FeltHappiness Hats uses wool into our products to promote more sustainable and ethical fashion practices.
