My name is: Gigi Burris O’Hara.

I’m known for being: Founder of Gigi Burris Millinery.

I’m a maker of: Handmade hats and hair accessories.

Making is an important part of my personal process because: Working with my hands is something that comes so naturally; I know it is my calling. Preserving this centuries-old craft of millinery is such an honor, and I am grateful for the joy it brings me.

Using your hands/mind to create can be rewarding for anyone because: When you see the joy and impact that your creation brings to people, there is a unique sense of fulfillment.

When I put on my favorite Live The Process piece, it helps me feel: Confident while comfortable.

This month, one way I’ll show self-love will be: Actually finding rest in rest instead of holding onto a guilt that comes from not being busy.
