A Hat 2 Wear 2 A Tea Party

Hats, hats, hats, birthday hats, usually they are these cone-shaped numbers or a crown. I was looking for something different. A tea party though deserves a hat for a lady.

At a friend’s place I saw a hat that Ellen and I could reproduce and would look super cute. I just had to figure out what materials to use. It turned out to be fairly simple. A toilet roll, a piece of cardboard and some nice paper, together with a hairband they were the main ingredients and we had them all at home. The other things needed, scissors and glue, we were set to go.

Out of the piece of cardboard we cut a circle a bit bigger then the diameter of the toilet roll. The toilet roll was cut in half and everything got covered in pretty paper. The toilet roll gets covered in a piece that is too big so we could cut in. This way we could fold out one side of the paper and fold in/over on the other side. I have no idea if I am explaining this correctly and I’ll be honest I had to help Ellen quite a bit with this project.

We attached the toilet roll to the round cardboard, which made the hat and the hat is then attached to the hairband.

Look for yourself how cute!
