Welcome to August Phoenix!

Lao Hats is now August Phoenix ... handcrafted hats and other wearable artworks by Heather Daveno. I design my hats one at a time from reclaimed textiles and found objects. My work is inspired by a variety of cultures and time periods, fused together to produce limited edition pieces of distinctive, durable, wearable art. |

August Phoenix, the noble bird that rises from its own ashes to be born anew, is a reference to the recycled nature of my work - new hats from reclaimed coats, handcrafted to wear forever... Visit My Hat Store to order a custom made hat, or to see hats that are currently in stock. Or check my Calendar to find a show or gallery in your area. To see what's going on behind this page, follow me on Facebook and LinkedIn. You may also view portfolios of my previous works at DeviantArt. |
