Hatmobile is The art of the heart

Here you can learn how to make, wear and love hats. Also, you can explore how to use creativity for mental well being. All available to you through many hours of tutorials which are constantly changing.

Waltraud Reiner believes hats are the art for the heart. A hat has to fit. A hat is so much more than a covering for your head. A hat can give you access to how you feel. Explore through colour and texture something about your life. Waltraud uses many metaphors as she makes hats and talks you through the process.
Apart from having been a milliner for now over 30 years, Waltraud also holds a MA in Gestalt Psychotherapy.

Why is making stuff good for us?
All of this for a yearly fee which is as little as participating in a 1-day workshop... and.....the library is growing all the time.
