Time fly! Here I am again presenting this year's Easter hat.Starting of the march is the time when kids starts thinking about the idea of Easter hat or Easter bonnet for school parade. Like every year, this year also, we were so excited to make our 3rd Easter hat/Bonnet for school's Parade.
My DS won the prize for his previous Hats. On his very first HAT we made two faces of earth and the message given was "save earth". This year also we wanted to make a hat with social message.
Like you all know I love recycling so, this year also I made Easter hat from scratch, and for decorations I used old hat's decoration and drawings. In the market many shops have cheap Easter decoration items, You can just buy and get your creativity flowing and enjoy making your Easter hat. There are many ways you can can make Easter Hat/Bonnet for boys or girls, but if you want to make a hat from scratch, Join me here.
I was discussing with my DS that how can we use old Hat's thing to make new hat as I was really keen to reuse the Earth . Like always he gave me the idea to make a big water drop out of the old earth and .......VOILA! instead of 1 big water drop we made lots of 2d water drops coming from the tap! So idea was clear that means finally time to collect the things:
Things I have used:
- Paper plate
- News paper/ tissue paper
- Craft knifes
- Cardboards
- Colours and brush
- Pen
- Toilet rolls
- Foil tube
- Foil
- Some printouts of drops
- Few real dry twigs and green grass
- Tissue papers
- Plastic toys
- Other Easter related thing like eggs,chickens etc
- Coloured papers
- Glue/ Glue gun
Measure the size and cut the circle out like the pictures below:
Cover it with the vertical cardboard sheet:
Cover the Sheet with another Paper so that you can cover the top.
Cover it in the center of the hat. Cover all the hat with tissue paper or news papers. Here I am using some old magazine papers.
Stick toilet tissue roll around the circle to give it a bumpy look.
Time to make a tap. For this I used foil tube and cardboard :
Covered it with foil:
Now as your skeleton is all ready time to start making the water drops. Just draw the water drop and cover it with the any fancy paper.
Cover all your tap with foil. just cut the paper in frills and give it a look of flowing water.
Stick all your decoration.
Easter is incomplete without bunny, so here is the bunny getting ready for Easter.
And here is the final look of this year's Easter hat. hope you all like it. Thanks for looking.
