Hi! My name is Jami Lei I’m a Prescott Arizona local artist & I create custom Burned-Branded hats.

Cowboy hats come in various shapes and sizes, with features such as wide brims and high crowns. The material used can vary from straw for summer wear to felt for colder weather. Each cowboy might shape their hat to fit their personal style, whether it’s a classic “Cattleman” crease or a more modern “Gus” crown.

Bespoke hat pyography is a creative and practical way to make headwear truly your own, blending artistry with functionality. Whether for personal use, gifts, or branding, custom hats offer a versatile and stylish solution.

Anyone who knows me knows how much I LOVE music. Her songs have inspired so many things in my life since I first her on the radio. Her music is literally the playlist to my life.

I bought front row tickets last year on presale with the soul goal to get this amazing artist one of my hats that I make…clearly the women who inspired most of them should own right?!? 😂 This was my goal for this year to get my custom hat into her hands. What an honor would be!

Mission accomplished! I’m still on cloud nine that I was able to gift a hat that I made from a piece of Australian wool into this beautiful work of art honoring my favorite song of hers.

Thank you for being the amazing artist that you are and inspiring so much of my creativity! Still cant believe that turquoise that’s my hat in your hands on stage!

“The working cowboy wore wide-brimmed and high-crowned hats. The hats were most likely adopted from civil war era slouch hats and may have been influenced by the Mexican Vaqueros before the invention of the modern design. John Batterson Stetson is credited for originating the modern day American Cowboy Hat.”….

Next to being creative… hiking & exploring, the beautiful state of Arizona is my next favorite thing. The past couple years I have gotten away from this hobby & lately my soul is craving it.
So this weekend I’m setting aside some time to recharge my batteries & get out in nature to soak up some vitamin D.
:
Sometimes nature can cultivate some of the best works of art, & it definitely recharges this artist soul.

Material is everything….over the past six months I have been practicing on different materials for burning hats. The best results I found are on natural 100% wool.

While it can be done on polyester blend hats, it’s not my best recommendation. The burning of this material can release a chemical that is not safe to breathe in. So if you choose to burn on blend hats, I highly recommend wearing a respirator.

It becomes more of a melted plastic and corrodes up the burning tool or brand.

What an incredible journey I am on with these hats! Sometime I look at them & can’t believe my hands & imagination created these!

What started out as playing with wood burning tool has evolved into these beautiful works of art.

This rustic beauty is quickly becoming one of my favorites!

What inspirations do you covet & return to?

The mountains will always speak to my soul.

As an Arizona baby…Sedona is one of my favorite places in AZ. The scenery is breathtaking & inspiring! The shades of red and pink were definitely an inspiration for the pink feather hat!

Hey there, hat lovers! So I woke up this morning and saw that there was a maker donation to support a young woman battling brain cancer. This jumped out at me and touched my heart as I have had several members this past couple years diagnosed with different cancers. I have also spent several hours at MD Anderson, Cancer Center in Gilbert, Arizona with my own daughter, so of course I was anxious to donate.
:
I got in touch with the coordinator this morning and she said it was not too late. So I went straight to my shop this morning and created this beautiful hat in honor of Megan.
