Ruby Charles Hat Designs began in June 2006. Most of the hats that are made are one-offs designs. The hats are made using various fabrics and a wide range of colours.
The product is aimed at a wide range of ages. Many people tell me 'I'm not a hat person', but I am convinced that this isn't true. I think that there is a hat to suit everyone but sometimes it takes a little longer for some people to find a hat that compliments them the most.
A hat is a very personal choice and whenever I can help to find the right one for people, I will. Usually to their suprise. It's very satisfying to find a hat which the customer ends up saying, ' Oh yes, I never thought that would suit me but it does.' It's even better when they say' i'll keep it on', because that saves me a bag too!
I will be at the 'Jinney Ring Craft Centre', in Hanbury near Bromsgrove, Worcestershire on Sunday the 15th of June, 10th August, 12th October and 14th December.
