A Man makes Toad Hats and becomes an Amphibians new Costume Designer
Finding a toad on your porch night after night may have some people thinking about witches or frogs turning into princes. For Chris Newsome though, this regular appearance of a warty toad, shed light on his new calling in life; Millinery work for amphibians! This small green toad kept coming back every evening, so Chris decided to give this little guy a wardrobe fit for polliwog stardom.

First, a delightful fuschia top hat. Taking inspiration from Abraham Lincoln, we presume. Or maybe this formal attire for a royal gala.

Not quite enough panache, so Chris added a vibrant pink plume and a monocle. Looking dapper and rejuvenated, the new porch toad friend of Chris Newsome is ready for pimpdom or maybe a red carpet event.

The next evening, Chris Newsome designs a sporty plum baseball cap with a personalized monogram in neon green.This toad is ready to celebrate the next big game. Courtside seats look promising for this new dynamic duo.

Finally, Chris takes some inspiration from the old western movies featuring Clint Eastwood or John Wayne. This magnificent 10-gallon hat in a riveting shade of burnt orange, has a wonderfully large brim and perfect stance on the little green guys head. Accessorizing the ensemble with a lasso is the perfect touch.

Perhaps Daisy, who is Chris Newsome’s dog, has found her handsome prince after all!
