A colorful hat customization shop features wooden walls lined with decorative accessories and materials. On the left, large spools of ribbon in various colors—ranging from mustard yellow to deep red and muted brown—are mounted on a wall rack. Below them, patterned scarves hang neatly. A vintage-style white glass wall sconce lights the workspace. In the center, a shelf displays lace, fabric bands, and beaded hatbands hanging from black hooks, with small signs reading “Build a Hat” and showing hat style options. To the right, wide-brimmed hats in neutral and pastel tones sit stacked on circular shelves, with more hats and small accessories arranged on a display table in front of a mirror.
