I'm filming this part outside because my roommate is in the room and I don't wanna-- just--
like they do this too, but I just don't wanna
so.
Frankly, I think it's my destiny to cosplay Snufkin because I have
so, I'm gonna do that.
so I have bought myself some felt
and with shipping and everything it came out to about
$35, so this better do what I want it to do.
this is 100% wool felt, it's j-- it's a square yard.
so, this is my hat material and I'm not gonna buy another one of these so it better work out
They also sent me this, like, little
sample, um,
and, like, instructions on how to do like a "boiled" felt look
I don't know what "boiled felt" means exactly but like,
it-- this-- it's like, you wet it and then you stick it in the dryer and it, like, felts up a little more
like it gets... it just kind of clumps together a little bit more because that's what wool felt does
so it's-- I think I'm gonna do that because it, um,
It's a lot thicker
than-- like you can tell it's it's like almost twice as... as thick as the... the This Stuff
and um,
It's uh, it's stiffer and it's actually a lot softer to the touch, too, so it'd be more comfy to wear
but I think the hat itself will have more structure if I do this
so I think I'm gonna do that first, um, and then I'm going to
steam shape it into
like a witch hat shape
So, uh for that you need a hat block and I don't
really have one of those, but I do have this
that I just went and bought today.
i'm probably going to
shape it a little bit to what I want and um...
hope for the best there.
and it's-- if it doesn't come out like, you know, perfectly
shaped, like if it's a little bit lumpy, I think that's fine because you know
that's how Snufkin is and it's
i-- it's appropriate, I think.
but uhhh, yeah. hi!
you wanna come here?
come here!
hi! c'mere c'mere c'mere c'mere
c'mere
come here
aw it's my baby
oh, she hates me
this is what's left of the hat block
if you're gonna do this,
if you can find something that's like, more heat resistant than a plastic container
do that
