Nobody has commented on the cute cat? What an adorable little creature!

Thank you so much! She's such a sweetie 😻 and all grown up now! 🐈‍⬛

Semolina and turmeric. Whoever would have thought those would be standard millinery supply? It’s brilliant.

[@glorygloryholeallelujah]

I don’t know why… But I absolutely adore the term *”petal sandwich”!* It sounds both delicate and delicious.🤣❤️

Hello! I'd completely forgotten I had said this 🤣

Hi Ilona! This is one of my favourite2023 videos of yours! I love the result and love how you showed how to use the flower tools! ❤

The hat is lovely! St. Catherine & the Catherinettes would be proud. Used to parade for St. Catherine's Day in New Orleans (in the US), but alas, it fell victim to the pandemic & is no more. Hopeful that it will be resurrected in the future.

Ive been desp to create a block for that style headband for myself, but cant afford the wooden blocks. Any suggestions? I love headbands but finding one that fits my odd shaped head is annoying!

[@ByIlonaMillinery]

Hello Roxann! Yes I have suggestions! And I also notice that you've just joined my Patron, so I will go and give you my suggestions through there. Thank you very much for supporting my work ❤️

Hey, Is it possible to use 100% silk fabric? Or must it be dupion? 😊

[@ByIlonaMillinery]

Hi Rochelle, the fabric I use is 100% silk dupion. Silk dupion has the right thickness for this. Something like silk satin would be too floppy. But whatever fabric you choose to use, it must be 100% natural fibre. If it has any polyester in it, it will melt. I hope this helps! 😊

[@rochelleconnellan2962]

@@ByIlonaMillinery thank so much for your response and your tips! 😊

[@IAMGiftbearer]

I'll try the semolina and Turmeric mixture for stamen powder. I have had a hell of a time finding powder from commercial sellers and the one shop from Japan I did find online is charging $33.00 for shipping a $6.00 pack of stamen powder! Ridiculous!

[@ByIlonaMillinery]

Hello, yes shipping from other countries can be expensive! You can try other dye substances to get a good colour on the semolina like mixing in some liquid dye or food colouring.
