Looks like paint and ladders like follow me around.

If your painting turns out as nice as your hats it should be a fine job when you're finished, except that hat making isn't as messy.

A lot of nice hats this chilly a.m. I'm envious. Everyone looks great. I'm enjoying semi retirement. Working part time for the first half of the week and loafing at home for the second half of the week, as long as I stay hidden from my wife and her honey do list, that is.

For me on this chilly a.m. I'm wearing a Resistol Stagecoach Indy conversion. This poor hat has been through three conversions, four ribbon changes and several reblockings and recreases.

Going back to the early '60s for some old Honky Tonk tunes...

Looks like it's holding up pretty good with the abuse. Thumbs up!

Don't get paint on that wonderful hat! You need some grubby painting clothes, you look to nice for this kind of labour!
I don't really own grubby clothes if I'm honest.
I have paint clothes but they are in my other workspace.
They suprised me with a bucket of paint when I arrived this morning.

Only Esther could look fashionable on a ladder with a paint roller in her hand.
Oh I almost fell off, so not elegant at all.

That looks good on you, love the look of that felt.

And a happy friday to you too!

That has to be the most elegant painter I've ever seen.:D

Awww, thank you. But not really. I go full German mode when painting.
