if you had a straw hat that was too big for your (pin) head...

[NappiesGaloreeatsBoysonToast]

is there some magical and obvious way to make it fit? or do i have to go get a smaller hat?

sew velcro round inside it and stick the other side of velcro on it - ta daa smaller hat,

Put a cushion on your head first ?
Wear your hair in a bun ?

hat pin?

it could double as a weapon of self defence

mrsA, you are a (small headed) genius

whizz -you are justnot trying

hat pin? this is not 1923 you know! mind you...

Get a large band of foam & wrap it round your head first ?
Use the extra space as storage for useful items?

Put a ribbon over the top & tie under your chin in a big bow

Superglue ?
Gaffer Tape?

Bulk out your head with a beanie hat underneath the straw hat. Repeat with extra layers if necessary.

snigger.

i particularly like the big bow idea.
and the gaffer tape.
perhaps i could meld the two approaches...

Long piece of gaffer tape from one side of your chin, over the hat & attach to the other side of your chin ?

(do it twice for added security)

exactly. sounds rather fetching doesnt it. and i could go out on a blustery day in total confidence that my gaffer protection would not let me down.
like a sanitary protection ad.
