Custom Steampunk 'Kit Kat' Derby

Here are some photos of a mini derby I made as a custom order.


It's similar to another derby I had made out of the same beaver finish felt, but the client wanted the trim made to match a specific outfit, which I was happy to do.


She also wanted to choose feathers, a mix of brown, bronzed, and striped coque, and emu from New Zealand.


She asked me to incorporate this antique button, which she'd been saving for something special. It looks great with the other colors.


I have similar hats available now for sale on Etsy:
