You can always sew or pin it back on or wear it on other things. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-floppy-hat-modification#post-420164 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 03:08:39 +0000 Annie 420164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Off with the flower!<br /> Maybe it would be cute pinned to a sweater? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-floppy-hat-modification#post-420161 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 02:56:25 +0000 Sveta 420161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Snip it off it it feels right - after all you can always put it back on later! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-floppy-hat-modification#post-420109 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 01:19:29 +0000 Suz 420109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto what everyone else says. The hat is YOU. The flower, not so much, or not so much the way it appears on this hat at this moment. So stash it away and enjoy the hat the way you want to! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-floppy-hat-modification#post-420088 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 00:55:37 +0000 Heather 420088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Anna. Definitely snip the flower off gently and place it in a sentimental spot like your jewelry box or a trinket tray to remind you of your father everyday. And then wear that hat like nobody's biznass. Make it your own--like always, my friend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-floppy-hat-modification#post-420076 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 00:27:42 +0000 Girl X 420076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say chop it off - but really carefully. You could add a pin to the detached flower and then would still have the option of wearing the hat with it later, which should help negate any guilty feelings. Either way, it's a great hat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-floppy-hat-modification#post-420062 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 00:06:28 +0000 MsMary 420062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Snip snip!</p> <p>Maybe the flower can find another life as a brooch! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-floppy-hat-modification#post-420022 Sat, 10 Sep 2011 22:31:59 +0000 Vildy 420022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it but since you don't - there used to be a whole business of hat trimming. You bought the hat and had it trimmed and then another season you could bring the hat back in and have the trimming updated to suit.<br /> How is this any different than what you propose to do? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-floppy-hat-modification#post-419941 Sat, 10 Sep 2011 19:35:57 +0000 cobaltblue 419941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chop it off! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-floppy-hat-modification#post-419933 Sat, 10 Sep 2011 18:52:05 +0000 RoseandJoan 419933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yup Anna, if without the flower you will wear the hat snip it now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-floppy-hat-modification#post-419925 Sat, 10 Sep 2011 18:39:31 +0000 Marley 419925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE this hat as is - but I agree with everyone else, if you're not going to wear it with the flower than remove it and enjoy YOUR hat! (and you can send the flower to me - I'm sure I could find a way to make it work it my wardrobe:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-floppy-hat-modification#post-419922 Sat, 10 Sep 2011 18:30:49 +0000 Kate 419922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love modifications like this because they are SO simple and have such a big impact!

If you feel you need to you can save it in case you want to put it back on later...but that flower doesn't look like something you'd wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-floppy-hat-modification#post-419901 Sat, 10 Sep 2011 17:12:39 +0000 Barbara 419901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to known to modify my share of clothing and accessories.

If you'll actually enjoy wearing it with a slight modification, isn't that preferable to having a lovely gift that doesn't see the light of day? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-floppy-hat-modification#post-419892 Sat, 10 Sep 2011 16:47:45 +0000 Mo 419892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say, make the clothes (and accessories) work for *you*!

I want to cut it off, it's sew on, not glued. But then part of me feels strange and a bit guilty modifying it. </p>
