Speaking of stretching hats, is there any way to stretch out a leather
cowboy hat? I left mine in the back of my car on a hot summer day and
it shrank. to where it won't fit any more.

Does it have an interior band? If so, you may have to remove it. If
not,
just try steaming, steaming, with a teakettle if you don't have a
proper
steamer, then putting it on the right size form (or maybe even the
head will
work). However, sounds like said hat is cheap enough not to bother,
nor might
that steaming will even work. But you aren't out much if it doesn't.
There are
lots of sources for cheap cowboy hats out there. On-line, try
Shepler's.
Around here, the Latino stores stock straw ones--not felt, so much.
