  Step 1

  Cut the cardboard into a circle, then cut a line to the centre of the circle.

  Fold the cardboard at the cut, under each other to make an teardrop shape and secure with duct tape.

  I apologise for the teardrop looking like an ice cream cone in this picture.

• Step 2

  Take the fabric that you will be using, I used some scraps of black satin. Cut a very long length of yarn, I used red glittery yarn that I got on sale. Sew the yarn to the fabric in a squiggly way, if you want a particular design go ahead!

• Step 3

  Glue the fabric to the cardboard. Then vut some more yarn and plait or macrame it to make an edging. Glue this to the edging of the hat.

• Step 4

  Gather a scrap of netting and glue to the back of the teardrop shape. Tie your ribbon into a bow to glue onto the point where the netting meets the fabric.

  You dont have to use ribbon, you can add gems, feathers, etc.

• Step 5

  Turn your teardrop over and glue a hair slide to the bottom.

  Voila, min cocktail hat!

super cute. I love how different it is to the pill box hats you see so much of now.
