July 19, 2006: Oh, AND…
AND… by request, the report on the final do-rag of choice! Many were called, few chosen, and the final favorite is….
This one!
No, no, no, that’s one of the runners-up in the Craftster.org Kitschy Craft Contest, “Marie Antoinette Headpiece” by Flawedmaude (made of pipe cleaners, feathers, beads, and pom-poms. Too cool!)
Ok, here it is:
This is the “Can’t Fail ‘Scarf'”, designed by the lovely and talented Mary Ann Weiss at CJ Hats. Mary Ann is a five-year survivor of IBC, and designs her hats based on her own experience. The Can’t Fail “Scarf” is really a wrap, the back pre-gathered by elastic. Tie the ties and you’re ready for work or play in this lovely chapeau — it is actually lovely, and very attractive on. Lots of compliments on this one, and it’s perfect for summer because the extra fabric in the back leaves space for ventilation (and looks really nice on.) The price for this hat is amazingly reasonable, shipping is fast, and we also like Mary Ann for another reason, which you will hear about in coming months. For now, please contact her for all your chemo-hat needs, and pass the word along to friends and family!
The Stacey Report 
So Stacey I’d like to know which one you would like? I see a few I think you would like – and some I think you would not wear on a bet -and I’m just looking at the “Can’t Miss” ones.
Hmmm. Perhaps Stacey’s sister can coordinate the flurry of orders for the same three hats.
Right? No?
Excellent choice! (Though really, the first one would make the more giant statement….) By the way, the service and responsiveness on this blog is outstanding!
p.s. My word verification is thwpyart – cool! Reminds me of Bloom County.
I think the first hat suites you. It screams, “I’m here! I’m que…” wait a minute. You’re probably looking to make a different statement.
I like the scarf, too. It’s very hip, very Euro, very Sharon Stone in her breast cancer days. Rrrrrr!
I like the scarf too. All wishing you the best.
