Description Hello everyone, and thanks for taking the time to look at this hat!
What you're looking at is a Supernatural themed hat, based off of Castiel's trenchcoat. C: It is made purely from Fleece, and lots of love! Admittedly the strap itself is a tiny bit on the stiff side, but it'll loosen up over time, don't worry. C: I put a lot of effort into trying to make this one look really clean, I hope it shows!

Now you may be wondering about the text, about this whole.. Hats 4 Haiti thing, and the Charity Random Acts. Let me fill you in on what this is about.

Hats 4 Haiti
Hats 4 Haiti is a Project newly formed and Spearheaded by myself and my best friend Tophe (Who now resides at ). I don't know what exactly popped the idea into my head, but now that I'm in a somewhat less dangerous financial situation, I really wanted to do something to give back. Right away Tophe hopped on board, and Random Hats: Hats 4 Haiti was founded! What is our goal you may ask? Once again I'm going to keep this very simple. We want to Sell/Auction hats, Fleece and Crochet, Plush and the like to raise money for Random Acts, A Charity group Co-founded by Misha Collins, The man behind Supernatural's Castiel. The charity itself can be found at TheRandomact.org, And it's definitely a worthy one, mark my words!

What am I buying?
Glad you asked! Not only are you buying a fleece hat made by yours truely with love, /and/ getting that amazing feeling you get when you do something to help others, you're getting something else as well. Everyone who purchases something will be asked to give a name (Though you may be anon if that so suits you) and a personal message to be put inside a card. That card will be given to Misha Collins in person along with all the funds we raise by the end of August at his panel at Vancon (Vancouver's Supernatural Convention). If you're a minion like myself, you know how big that could be: You get to help a charity, and tell such an amazing man just how much he means to you! I don't know about you, but he's certainly an inspiration to me, and I'm going to make sure he knows it.

Do I have to be a Supernatural Fan to buy a hat?
No, of course not! If you like a hat or know someone who you'd like to gift it to, that's great as well! or maybe you just want to help a good cause, and get a cool hat out of it as well! You're an amazing person, and the world thanks you for it.

Keep in mind that this is the first hat of many that will be popping up on my Deviantart and our Projects Tumblr, So if this hat isn't quite your thing there will be more to come, not only from me but also from my partner in this project, Tophe! If you would like to keep in the know about upcoming hats, projects, updates and information, or learn more about what we're doing, you can keep tabs on us on our Side Tumblr blog! Randomhats.Tumblr.com <3!

All proceeds from this hat will be going to the Charity. That's right, I'm not keeping a cent! Consider the Materials and my time my own personal contribution.<3

This hat is now up for Auction on Ebay! I hope it sparks some of your fancies! We appreciate it, and all the people Random Acts helps do too!

That's a really awesome idea. Sadly, I just don't have the fundage. $45 starting bid and $15 S&H. Can't afford that. However, I hope someone does buy it. Worthy cause.

That's alright, I appreciate the support anyways! C:
Shipping to most places ends up only being $10, I'm actually really frustrated with Ebay. It's shipping quotes are way off, it's really annoying. But anyways yes! C: I hope our project does well, it really is a worthy cause. <3

Castiel: NO FREAKING WAY! A HAT TO MATCH MY COAT! I LUVZ IT!!!!!

But seriously. The whole charity thing is SUPER AWESOMELY KIND! On another note, I find it so funny and cute that you based a HAT off of a FREAKING COAT! Now THAT takes skill.

Haha, same with me! But I got into this hat making thing to help keep my mom and I off the streets to make extra money, and now that we're not in such a bad place.. I thought why not put my hat making skill to some good use to do something really great? People get cool hats, Charity gets a nice donation, and everyone is happy! ;D I think we all qualify for winning at life, Haha. <3

Congrats to you to make things for charitable donation.
I'm knee-deep in the same sort of project. It's hard.
It takes a lot to give all of the money you accumulate
to an organization. Good for you! It takes so much
encouragement. Especially when you have those "I don't
really know how much this is going to do" moments. But,
it does a lot. Every cent you collect and are able to give
makes a difference. Keep up the good word!

If you need some words of encouragement, let me know.

Thank you so much for your kind words! When I first had the idea, the feedback I got from it was really great from the Community! Now that I actually have something up though, Sadly I haven't seen as much response as I'd hoped. I'm not going to give up though! Just have to get the message out. C: I agree that every penny can make a world of a difference, And even if by the end of the project all my friend and I succeed in making is our own donations I'll be happy that we were able to do /something/ for a worthy cause!

Willdo! Thank you so much. <3

I got great feedback from my proposal as well.
Don't get discouraged. It's hard to raise donations.

You should check out Fundrazr sometime, too.

Hat themed after a trenchcoat OMG. What is this, I don't even... seriously, this is wicked awesome! Kinda strange theme pulled of so nicely. It's really a cute little hat. And who wouldn't like something Castiel-themed in their life.

Really, this is like the best thing I've ever seen in my life.

I was worried I was going to ruin it trying to make the strap look decent, but it turned out really nice in the end!

You really pulled that off nicely, I mean, it doesn't look too much of a trenchcoat to be silly worn on head, but once you tell the insipiration I'd imagine people going "Oh wow, that's cool!"

I'd try tp buy this myself if I had any money to spend, but I hope you get it sold quickly. For good cause and all^^
