DIY hat and walking stick for my 1780s costume

After taking a little break I'm back with another fun accessories video -- this time for the 18th century. I'm making a walking stick or cane, a simple piece that makes for a great photo prop and can be decorated in many ways, and a classic silk-covered, begere-style, flat hat that was so popular during the time period. I wore both of these pieces to a Black and White-themed tea party last year.
