You wet your sinamay, shape and stretch it on the head to get the the nice curve, fasten it with pins and apply stiffener. After it is dry, take it off, cut the shape you want, wire and saw biasbinding on it! Then decorate! All the materials can be purchased in millinery supply shops or online.If you don’t have any knowledge at all you might want take part in a workshop as I am not sure how clear my explanation is..

Best of luck!

What materials do you use? I am starting with no knowledge at all. How do I find the materials to start?
