Background on the Mad Hatter Day

The Mad Hatter, a fictional character depicted in Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland, is always acting silly, so it's only fair and fitting to act a little silly yourself.  It's even ok to let a bit of silliness spill over into your crafting life as well. The selection of the day actually has merit as the Mad Hatter wears a top hat and on the front is a slip of paper with 10/6 written on it.  The slip is believed to be a hat order costing ten shillings and sixpence.  Since today is October 6, this has become the official Mad Hatter Day.  

My Mad Hatter Projects

If you want to host a Mad Hatter Party, you'd need some table decor, so my first project is just that - a Mad Hatter (actually a Mad Hatteress - as you see)
