Mini Pilgrim Hat Tutorial

Here is a great little craft to get you and your kiddos in the Thanksgiving mood. Have fun crafting with your kids!
Mini Pilgrim Hat
Kids 7+ should be able to do this craft with minimal assistance. Younger kiddos will need some help from an adult.*
Supplies:
Snack Cup or Yogurt Container (we used a Jello Snack Cup)
Larger Container that is aprox. an inch wider than the opening of your snack container
Glue or Mod Podge
Paint Brush to apply glue
Paper Plate or Card Stock
Black Tissue Paper
Gold Chenille Stem (Pipe Cleaner)
Black Ribbon or Chenille Stem for hat band
Scissors
Pencil
Wax Paper to work on

Place mouth of larger container on center of paper plate and trace.
Center smaller container (snack cup) in circle and trace.
Cut out larger circle.

Fold circle in half to cut tabs from center to smaller circle line.

Fold up tabs at smaller circle line. Trim to manageable length.

Brush glue outside edge of snack cup.

Place upside down on to wax paper or work surface
Place brim onto snack cup. Push tabs into glue.

Cut or rip tissue into small pieces.**

Decoupage tissue on to hat (paint on glue, apply tissue and paint over tissue with thin layer of glue.)
Let dry.

Create buckle by bending a chenille stem into a square repeating the square shape until stem runs out. This creates a thicker buckle.

Glue on ribbon or chenille stem hat band.
Glue on buckle.
*Parents of younger children can assemble the brim then let child decorate the hat.
**You can replace glue and tissue with black Acrylic Paint.
