Making your own wedding accessories

We are DIYing most of my accessories and bridal/grooms party accessories. Does any one know any places with good deals on fantasy themed items? And where i can find a plain white pirate hat?

    The only places I can think of that would have things like that would either be ebay or etsy. Can you show a picture of the kind of hat you mean? I can't quite picture a white pirate hat.

    Aha. The best term to search for that is going to be a tricorn hat. You should be able to get one at a party supply store or maybe even a craft or millinery store.

    They do have some plain ones on etsy, but it depends how much you are looking at spending.

    So I make my own pirate hats for the Renaissance faire. What I do is buy a cheap floppy brim hat off amazon. Then you use fabric stiffener (it comes in a spritz bottle found at any craft store) on the brim until it is stiff. Then you can pin it up to however you want. Either tricorn style or two sided or just one side up. Then you decorate it however you want!

    Is there a good fabric paint to use on them?

    I buy felt hats so paint would not be good to use on them. If you were just painting details then maybe a fabric marker? I usually just use jewelry, feathers, pins, lace, ribbon ect on mine
