      Gar, Thank you and welcome aboard… there be and extra share of limes and doubloons for you autistic-hook(hee hee).

      Except for the obvious plastic hooks, swords, and flintlocks – we have created everything out of repurposed clothing items – including the hats! A thrift shop’s women’s department is a treasure trove of pirate garb – if you look from the right angle. For the hats, I have always watched out for those made of felt with a wire sewn into the outer edge of the brim; they are easily molded.
