Easter Bonnet
Written by admin on April 9th, 2009
Rebekah Patterson is one of Irelands top Milliners and has a studio right next door, full of the most Georges hats imaginable. It is not unusual to find my shop empty and a cackle of excited voices from next door, thats myself and some of the other girls from the yard dressing up in Beks shop.
When you walk through her door memories of great aunts and grandmothers come flooding back (the best passable kind) Rebekahs work encompass the best of old with a wonderful twist of quirky, creative, timeless personality that is so unique and individual that’s its instantly recognizable as a ‘Beck Patterson’. To complement the array of hats Rebekah also makes one off garments, great dresses, cardigans, coats, winter tees, whacky cameo broaches, think of anything funky and unique and she does it. You can bring your favorite old cardie that no longer works for you and she will revamp it so you can get another few years ware from it. What a great service in this age of recycling.
Rebekah is from Melbourne, Australia and she brings her bubbly,upbeat Aussie personality to everything she does, not to mention the best customer service around (well after the pottery next door) If you think you would like to turn your hand at making your own headpiece she is running an exclusive six week night class where you will be introduced to the basics in millinery and hat making, starting on the 21st April. For more details contact Rebekah via her Website. This one is worth traveling for ………………….
