white sailor hat, halloween costume, no sew, easy to make
Halloween! Want to be a sailr girl or dress up as Popeye and Olive Oil like my husband and I. Then, have a go with this Sailor Hat!

Very cheap and easy Sailor Hat! Large coffee filters, card board pizza box, stapler and glur. If you want to rim to look better try glueing white fabric. In my pictures the smaller one has only coffee filters glued to it and the larger hat has a white mesh fabric clued to it but still a coffee filter for the crown. Hope you enjoy!
