What are your favorite materials/techniques to customize each hat?

My favorite technique to customize a hat is to apply my free hand branding to them. It really gives it a one of a kind look and expresses my art even more. 

How did you get into this art form?

My fiancè took me to a hat bar up in Montana last year in October 2023. I got to design my own hat and I left the hat bar thinking, I could do this! Havasu does not have something like this and I wanted to bring Havasu its first Original Hat Bar! 

Do you have a favorite hat you've designed? 

Every time I make a new hat it becomes my new favorite. They are all so unique and different it’s very hard to keep one favorite! 

What can First Friday goers expect to see at your Pop-Up in Yard City? 

At First Friday you can expect to see my customized flat brim hats, cowboy style and my new product, Suede Baseball Caps! I will be open to taking custom orders as well if you don’t find a hat you love on my table. 

Visit Haley’s Pop Up inside YardCity on March 1st from 6-9PM.
