We are in Texas now, so summer hats really are looking like a big priority so Ive been inspired! In the last 3 days I have made 3 hats: an antique lace Garden party Hat, a big cowboy style hat Im calling the gunslinger, really kindof a clint eastwood sorta hat. And lastly I made a traditional victorian French Foreign Legion hat! I may make the Legionaire hat in a bit less of a victorian attitude, but then again maybe not! adventurer gentlemen of the day dreamed of the romantic taking off and saving the world!

Why not? http://luckydayhats.com/barter-for-hats-why-not http://luckydayhats.com/barter-for-hats-why-not#comments Tue, 22 Nov 2011 01:17:18 +0000 Rischa http://luckydayhats.com/?p=849 I recently saw an ad on craigslist for someone who sews and likes sushi for a trade, pants for sushi! Being a curious being, i responded of course!  The pants were owned by a raver girl who bought 6 or 8 pairs of tripp brand pants some time ago but now they are all wearing out!  For those of you who don’t know them, they are super loose pants usually covered with Drings and zippers and all sorts of jangly bits, but she wanted them plain. OK no problem, and we came up with an arrangement, how much sushi equals a pair of pants?   She was very happy, as was I.  After she dropped off the sushi and picked up her pants, she sent me a text, it said, “Oh man, I’m so happy with these pants! I have never worn anything more comfortable!!! You are truly an artist.”

this was the pocket design for the sushipants

Wow! High praise. So its got me thinking, with the way the world is going, I would like to open Lucky Day Hats, and our sister site Bad Dog Hats, open to bartering! If you have something I could use, swing the idea by me and I am definately willing to entertain the idea! Of course sushi by mail would be a problem, so maybe there are other alternatives, maybe you work for a fabric company, or have a big bundle of vintage fabrics that i could use. (cool old curtains or bedspread?)

some items I may be willing to barter for:

Basics:
foodstuffs, freezedried meals, meat and veggie
cocoanut oil
essential oils
vitamins/supplements, new and within best by dates
diatomaceous earth, food grade
soaps, preferrably artisan made and not mass produced
Towels and sheets, used ok if in good condition and fun colors, but will trade for thriftstore value
prepaid gas cards
gold, silver and other commodities
office supplies, 8 1/2 x 11 paper by the ream or case
sticker paper 8 1/2 x 11

Wish list:
rain barrel
solar or wind generator
garden seeds, non GMO, and heirloom
garden tools, implements
grain mill, hand
water filters, PUR, and hand pump

Books and movies:
DVDs, we like fantasy scifi best, but might be open to other interesting things, bio pics, documentaries
books: would like to read 1984, atlas schrugged, other good classics, and modern esp. steampunk fiction.

Do you have any other good ideas of something you want to trade? Ask!

The place to go in Texas for BJD! Known as BJD Heaven!

We recently stumbled into the Kerbey Lane Doll Shoppe in Austin Tx, www.kerbeylanedollshop.com and were chatting them up about doll hats and clothes and were warmly received by their knowledgeable staff. I showed them a few examples of our hats and we were all excited about the possibilities!  I went right home and made teeny versions of our Steampunk hats, Aviators, made some wings and anime hats and of course berets, and have much more in the works!   Look for more soon!
