What's even sweeter than a Pick 'n' Mix? A Bonnie Hislop x Elleni the Label collab! The Pick 'n' Mix Beret Beret features handmade Bonnie Hislop ceramic beads adorning a magenta pink beret base, on both the top and rim. Sprinkled throughout are shimmery AB rainbow beads in two sizes.
Every beret will include at least one of every style of Bonnie Hislop exclusive beads (bow, rainbow, prize ribbon, croissant, heart, flower, smiley, star and ice cream) but double ups and placements will vary. And some lucky darlin's may receive an extra, secret bead - not pictured!
They beret is finished with a beaded chain that hangs from the inside rim of the beret, resembling a glasses chain - but for your hat! The beaded chains feature the same alternating sizes of AB beads and 6 different, randomised Bonnie Hislop beads.
There is a gold plated lobster clasp on each end of the strand that can clasp to the matching jump ring sewn into each side of the rim of the beret. This means you can wear your beret with or without the hat chain. Connect the lobster clasps to each other and you now have a delightful necklace to match your beret!
Also available separately is a shorter style necklace featuring 3 Bonnie Hislop hand painted beads, also finished with two lobster clasps that will be able to attach to this beret as well as to each other as a necklace.
As part of the The Elleni the Label x Bonnie Hislop Collection, The Pick 'n' Mix Beret will be made in very limited quantities.

Each Pick 'n' Mix Beret lovingly hand made by both Bonnie and Elleni, so will differ slightly from the one pictured. Please only spot clean, be careful in the rain and treat your ceramic beads with care.
Beret: 100% Wool
Berets are offered in one size, designed to fit the average adult. Model’s heads are about 56cm and 59cm and all berets fit with extra room. As the berets are 100% wool, they have a good amount of stretch to them and will mould to your head over time and wear. Have a peek here and here to see some further stretching tips should you like some more room or would like to speed up the process.
Every Elleni the Label x Bonnie Hislop Beret has both an Elleni the Label logo and a Bonnie Hislop logo embroidered on the outer rim, designed to be worn at the back where it’s hidden - but you can wear her anyway you please!
