Silverhill Creative
Meet the Maker
Silverhill Creative Millinery is a one-woman millinery studio located in Vermont.
Hi, I'm Kristin Silverman — the designer and owner behind Silverhill Creative Millinery.
Since establishing Silverhill Creative Millinery in late 2012, I have sold my hats to customers across the United States, and to Canada, Israel, the UK, Australia, Norway, and Hong Kong.
Primarily self-taught, I have also learned from renowned international millinery instructors at Millinery Meet-Up and online at Hat Academy.
I work out of my studio in Vermont, creating one-of-a-kind hats and headpieces completely by hand, using traditional millinery techniques.
Silverhill Creative specializes in unique and artistic hats in everyday, easily wearable shapes, such as fedoras, berets and cloches. Hats sold in the online shop are in stock and ready to ship.
My hats have long featured hand embroidery and beading. In 2024, I will also be offering embroidery and bead art as standalone art pieces not on hats.
How it’s Made
♦ CONTENT and CONSTRUCTION: ♦
The toyo paper straw hat body was blocked by hand on a wooden hat block. Then the brim was shaped with free-form folds and curves. The brim is bound with a vintage ribbon in a gorgeous brass bronze color.
The crown is also trimmed with vintage finds: a pale mint green and metallic trim from the 1920s (with a high metal content) and an antique silk pom pom from the early 1900s. There are some small flaws in the trim, which is natural for ribbon this old.
Unlined inside, finished with a grosgrain head-size ribbon in avocado green and a Silverhill Creative Millinery label.
