NogoodatLW Report post Posted November 3, 2021 I am looking to have two witches hats made probably late January to early February for my wife and a friend. I am interested in what the steps are I need to go through and a general idea of the cost. Please over calculate instead of low-balling. I know it is a skill set worth paying for and I would rather find out it was cheaper than quoted than more expensive. Thanks in advance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
