Bucket Hat
Bucket Hat
A versatile hat perfect for rain or shine. Craft this hat out of canvas or oilcloth, line it in something fun, and listen to the compliments come rolling in. This hat will protect your forehead, keep the sun out of your eyes, and for those of us wearing glasses, the raindrops from landing on your lenses.
