What doesn't come to mind when considering the paper hat...


Hawaii artist Moses crafted more than 250 amazing paper bag hats in a remarkable obsession and creative outburst that lasted almost ten years. The Sun Rook hat alone (lower right image) took over 100 paper bags to create. You can see some more of the artist's hats on the Smithsonian website. I don't think I'll look at my grocery bags the same way again.

Thanks! I haven't opened up the blog for comments before just because most people don't leave them anyways. I changed that just in the past couple days, in case a few folks want to leave a comment or information. I'm glad you like the posts.
