Here are seven stellar gift ideas that are sure to please any hat-loving gal. They'll make great presents for the holidays, and for any other special occasion like birthdays, anniversaries, and graduations.
1. A puggaree
What's a puggaree, you ask? It's a removable, decorative hat band. They are often made of pleated straw, satin, or crepe.
You can add these hooks for securing the ends, and for easy removal to wear on different hats. The leather bands pictured below are available in customizable lengths.
2. Millinery portraits
We hat girls like to be around kindred spirits. Sometimes an illustration is the closest we can get.
These art prints of striking millinery creations make for lovely decor.
3. A hat stand
A freestanding hat rack adds convenient storage in a foyer, bedroom, or walk-in closet. Bonus points if it's chic.
4. Decorative hat pins
Both modern or vintage hat pins embellish a hat while keeping it secured to the wearer's hair. You can find many beautiful choices on Etsy and Amazon Handmade.
5. A hat pin holder
Does she already have dozens of hat pins? Here are elegant containers to keep them organized.
6. The Hat Magazine
This is a great gift for a hat-lover who is interested in industry news and millinery suppliers. Pick up a few issues or a year-long subscription, available in both print and digital.
I love the magazine's mission statement: "The Hat Magazine is the voice of the hat trade worldwide and is unceasing in the promotion of the making and wearing of hats." A round of applause.
7. A statement hat!
