The Skeleton Cabaret Top Hat

The first time I saw a Halloween top hat it was in a 2003 Magazine featuring the artist Scott Smith. I emailed Scott and asked his permission to use his idea and give it my own creepy creative twist . . . Thank you Scott!
Well here it is . . . The Skeleton Cabaret Top Hat by Me Pat Benedict, Woopitydooart. I took an old costume heavy felt top hat and spooked it up with some paint and added my hand sculpted Skeleton Lady. The Skeleton even has her own little top hat on . . . I loved the way it turned out! The top hat inside the rim is 23" and with the skeleton on the hat it’s around 8" tall. This One of a kind hat would be GREAT for your 2009 Halloween parties!

Starts tonight on eBay! July 29, 2009
