Commissions / Inquiries

At the moment, I am only accepting new commissions to be completed after November of 2025, and have no ready made hats available for sale.

With the exception of the annual Jane Austen Festival, Shocking Bad Hats are usually sold exclusively by commission. I love working with my customers to create exactly the hat you envision, whether its a reproduction of a museum piece, a favorite hat from a period film or television show, or one-a-kind original.

Every commission is a little different, but as a general rule, if you are a first time customer, once we have decided on all the details of style, color, trims, etc., I will ask for a minimum, non-refundable materials deposit of $75.00, with the remaining balance due when the hat is ready to ship. I will need your contact information and a shipping address. I usually keep in touch with you throughout the process, and will let you know when I have begun work, and when you might expect the hat to be ready. Historically, my turn around time is pretty quick—-but depending on the length of the queue, the time frame may vary. If you need a special hat in time for a particular event, please don’t hesitate to ask if It is possible to meet a tight deadline—-I will always do my best to accommodate!
