Made/Modified : Goggles & Top Hat

It started by buying a cheap pair of costume goggles and a cheap Top hat. All together it probably cost me under $20-25. The goggles were an ugly matte silver so I spray painted them copper and antiqued them. I also replaced the cheap strap with a brown leather strap and a vintage buckle. As for the top hat some re-shaping was done as well as a coat of burgundy acrylic paint. I replaced the band with a hand tattered one. Also I did some fancy embroidery on the side. I may post some details later as well as a second pair of goggles that I designed.
