Hey everyone! In honor of everyone's favorite mouse's birthday, this Hat of The Month is based off of none other then, Mickey Mouse! This year marks Mickey's 85th birthday. He was first shown November 18th, 1928. I also show how you can change things up and make a Minnie hat as well. I hope you guys enjoy! (sorry for my horrible photography)
