Fabulous Fascinators: 14 Fantastic Projects from Simple to Advanced by Aston, Kerry. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781907615085.

Fascinators have never been more popular. And making fascinators is one of those delightful crafts where its surprisingly easy to make something that looks very complicated, and will get you lots of compliments. Its also the easiest and most satisfying way to start down the road of making hats. Making fascinators is not about hard and fast rules - its about learning a handful of simple techniques and then, once youve got these under your belt, starting to experiment and make your own designs. This detailed and beautifully photographed book will show you how to create 14 fabulous fascinators from scratch, from basic through to advanced. The author, award-winning milliner Kerry Aston, also talks about where she gets her inspiration from, so that even if you make all 14 of the projects in the book, youll know how to come up with totally original designs yourself. Each project starts with a gorgeous photo of the fascinator being worn, and then lists the tools and materials youll need to make it. This is then followed by a complete set of step-by-step instructions, illustrated with detailed photos taken along the way. And finally, Kerry shows a handful of other similar-but-different fascinators, where shes just tweaked some of the methods, sizes or embellishments to give a fascinator with a very different feel.
