Paper birthday hats

Paper hats will be no less relevant at a birthday party. You can purchase ready-made ones in supermarkets and specialty stores, decorated in a wide variety of ways, in different styles, which is especially important for themed birthdays.

Or you can make them yourself, for example, the same for everyone, you can diversify the options by decorating each cap individually. Colored shiny ribbons, paper, and foil are suitable as decorations. For children, it is better to choose images of their favorite cartoon characters.

To make holiday caps we will need:

For Halloween, my little daughter decided to be a princess. I quickly sewed her a dress from an old T-shirt and tulle, all that was left was to add a few accessories. We wondered: what kind of headdresses do princesses wear? Disney cartoons came to our aid – hubcaps, of course! Today I will tell you how to make a cap with your own hands that will perfectly complement the image of your little princess!

Required materials and tools:

• 1 meter of tulle;
• paper;
• scissors;
• glue;
• ribbon.

Paper base

Making a paper cap is not at all difficult. All you have to do is cut out the trapezoid and glue it together. I will give you my measurements, but be sure to measure the circumference of your baby's head before starting work, and if they differ greatly from those provided, do your own calculations. So the base of the trapezoid should be 21 inches, the top 4 inches, and the side length 16 inches. Draw a trapezoid on your piece of paper and cut it out. It should look like what you see in the photo.

Let's add tulle

Let's continue working. Place the tulle in front of you. Place the paper part of the cap on it so that there is about 1 inch left to the bottom of the fabric. Now step back 1 inch from each edge of the trapezoid (except for the bottom, where we have already done this) and draw lines with a pencil. Trim the tulle along this line. Now place the paper piece with the base of the trapezoid towards the top side of the fabric and repeat the indentations. Trim. You should end up with an hourglass-shaped figure.

Glue the cone

There is very little left. You see, my story about how to make a cap with your own hands is very simple and quick. We are nearing the end of the work. Glue the sides of the paper trapezoid together. To do this, apply a strip of glue to the top side of one of the edges and press the second edge on top. Apply a little pressure with your fingers, moving along the entire gluing line. Now apply glue to the top of the paper cap, right down to the bottom. Glue the tulle by wrapping a paper cone in it. Glue it in the same way at the top of the cap. The second part of the tulle should hang freely - this is our small train.

Ribbons - ties

Having tried the cap on my princess, I realized that it needed to be fixed on her head somehow. Otherwise, we won’t have time to leave the house before my active child will lose it. I think you will have the same problem. Therefore, I suggest you make a cap with your own hands with strings. Take 50 cm of thin tape, fold it in half and cut it. Burn the ends with a lighter to prevent them from fraying. And glue one end of the tape to both sides of the cap. Now it's ready! Tie it up. You can turn your head from side to side and not be afraid that the cap will fall off! Happy Holidays!

A person can celebrate many holidays, and often a paper cap becomes an integral part of the costume. Many events are usually held on a grand scale, and some even organize carnivals and theatrical performances in honor of this. Especially often, such actions are carried out at children's parties. For each performance, a script is carefully developed, often requiring special costumes.

If the master is faced with the task of making a carnival cap, then several options can be used. It all depends on the look of the costume. For example, a cap may be necessary to create the appearance of a wizard, a chef, or a Christmas tree. Each type of product has its own operating options. The simplest and most inexpensive option is a paper carnival cap. With its support, you can make a holiday accessory in a matter of minutes. Paper caps are very easy to set up. To do this, it is not necessary to have special skills or use expensive materials.

As for how to make a paper cap with your own hands, you will need paper, scissors, glue and various decorations for the finished product. The sheet of paper should be square. We fold it in half. Now we bend the upper corners in the middle so that there is about 1 cm left from each corner to the center. Secure the corners a little with glue.

The wizard's cap is usually complemented with various attributes of the starry sky

There should be a 2-3 cm line at the bottom. Bend one part of it forward, lightly fixing it with glue. Then we turn the cap over and bend the other side. We straighten the product so that it can be put on the head.

After this, various decorations will be required. You can cut out stars, crescents, etc. from glossy paper. These elements are glued to the cap. A good way to decorate would be glitter. They are very easy to use. To do this, you need to lay down newspaper so that the material does not scatter too much. Then, using PVA glue, we draw patterns on the cap and sprinkle them with glitter. All excess will fly off at once, and the glitter stuck to the glue will linger on the cap for a long time.

Craft product Papier-mâché Getting ready for Halloween 2 or Harry Potter Paper Glue Paint

Wishing you all a sunny autumn and good mood!
This is the hat that sorted the guys into houses in the book about Harry Potter for my son, who is now very interested in this. Each of the founders of Hogwarts selected students for his house based on certain qualities. But one day they started thinking: who will distribute students after our death? And then Gryffindor enchanted his hat, endowing it with the ability to recognize character traits, weigh the pros and cons, and direct the student to the faculty where his character would be fully revealed. Since then, every year, on the first day, the Hat tells newcomers which faculty they will study at. To do this, you just need to put the Hat on your head.

Maybe I'm ugly to look at, but don't judge me harshly. After all, you can’t find a smarter hat than me, no matter what you say. Hats, top hats and bowlers More beautiful than me, no doubt. But if they were smarter than me, I'd eat myself for lunch. I see right through all your thoughts, nothing can be hidden from me. Put me on and I will tell you with whom you are destined to study. Perhaps Gryffindor is waiting for you, famous for the brave men who study there. Their hearts are full of courage and strength, and they are also noble. Or maybe Hufflepuff is your destiny, Where no one is afraid of work, Where everyone is devoted and faithful, And full of patience and perseverance. And if your brain is in order, you have been drawn to knowledge for a long time, you have humor and the strength to gnaw granite on science, then your path is to the Ravenclaw table. Perhaps you are destined to find your best friends in Slytherin. There the cunning people go towards their goal, without hesitating any paths. Don't be afraid of me, put it on boldly, and I will predict your fate more accurately than someone else can do it. You are in good hands. Even though I am armless, alas, I am proud of myself.

Well, this is a version of the aged Harry - my husband’s father tried it on

Paper headdress for herringbone costume

In recent years, the Christmas tree costume has become very popular at children's matinees. If, as a rule, there are no special problems with making a dress, then a headdress forces parents to work hard. In fact, everything is done extremely simply.

To work you will need a large sheet of paper, green tinsel and very small Christmas tree decorations. You need to make a regular bag out of paper. Then it needs to be cut so that the wide part fits the diameter of the child’s head. Now the decoration (tinsel) comes into play. You need to carefully wrap it around the paper cap. Then the carnival headdress, which by this point will already resemble a Christmas tree, is decorated with small toys. You should only choose plastic products for decoration, but in no case glass toys.

The Christmas tree hat is an excellent addition to the “green beauty” costume.

The Sorting Hat or my debut in working with papier-mâché

“I see a lot of courage.” still a good mind, there is talent, oh yes. and an indomitable desire to show oneself. Where should I place you?

- Not Slytherin. Not Slytherin.

- Not Slytherin? Are you sure? You could become great. Everything is here, in your head. And Slytherin will help you on your path to greatness, there is no doubt about that. No?

- Not Slytherin. Please, please, assign me anywhere, but not Slytherin.

- Well, if you are sure of it. let it be. Gryffindor!

Throughout the entire work process, this dialogue was spinning in my head. And music, of course, magical music from Harry Potter. A month ago I received this unusual order: for one event I needed the Sorting Hat from Harry Potter. I spent several days looking through possible options for crafting such a thing and settled on papiermache. The experience of working with papier-mache, gained in labor lessons as a child, turned out to be not very pleasant. And since then I haven’t even tried to make anything from papier-mâché. But then I plucked up the courage, paper, glue and got to work!

Paper chef's hat

It is likely that the script for a matinee or other festive event will include a character such as a cook. The costume in this case can be made very simply. It is enough to put an apron on the baby and give him a rolling pin. But this manner will not be complete if the child does not have a traditional cap on his head, which is indispensable for this profession. This product can be made from paper, or more literally, from several types of paper.

As for how to make a paper cap, you will need white parchment material, cardboard, adhesive tape or double-sided tape, a ruler and scissors. Even before making the product, it is necessary to correctly measure the child’s head. Only after this can you start cutting out the cardboard. The base of the paper cap will be made from it, which will be a strip 5 cm wide.

After this, you need to measure out the parchment paper. Its quantity should be twice the length of the base. This sheet must be laid out on a flat surface and gathered to form folds. We glue one side to the base so that the parchment paper takes up half the length of the cardboard. We attach the second side of the gathered parchment using double-sided tape to the remaining portion of the cardboard base.

It is better to make the base of the chef's hat from quite thick paper, and the cap itself from thin

Now the cardboard needs to be carefully glued together to form a circle. The top straightens and levels out a little. The folds must be left, but made more even in those places where it will be necessary.

There should be gaps on the sides that need to be eliminated. To do this, glue parchment paper to the base in the side parts of the cap. Let's make a cute and fun DIY paper chef's hat.

Advice!

This headdress is suitable for a matinee, stage performance, or just for home use. Many children love to help their parents and prefer to have their own kitchen apron for such occasions. A chef's hat would be a great addition here.

DIY Harry Potter hat

The Sorting Hat plays an important role in the Harry Potter books. She sorts students by house at Hogwarts School of Magic. Before making a choice, she analyzes the qualities of the freshman: his temperament, character, personality orientation, abilities, intelligence, emotionality, self-esteem. After weighing all the pros and cons, she chooses a suitable faculty where the child can achieve maximum knowledge and skills.

Now the hat has become an attribute of many holidays (New Year, Halloween). And it is also an indispensable part to complement the image of Harry Potter. After all, films about the boy with the scar are so loved by children from all over the world. Let's try to make magic props with our own hands.

Important. Be sure to measure your child's head circumference before you begin.

Birthday caps

For any holiday, regardless of whether it is for an adult or a child, bright caps will be a good decoration and addition. This is very cute and creates a joyful atmosphere when each guest will have their own cap on their head.

Often, heroes of the occasion purchase paper head caps in the form of blanks in specialized shops. After that, all that remains is to fold them correctly and put them on your head. But it will be much more interesting to make caps for all invitees yourself. If the reprimand is about a children's party, it is necessary to involve the child in this process. He will be able to choose the appropriate color of the headdress for each guest and decorate the cap himself.

The advantage of working independently on the production of such holiday accessories is that here the master has the opportunity to create the actual caps that will fit most successfully into the theme of the event. If no person has chosen a theme for the holiday, you can use glossy ribbons, foil, corrugated paper, glitter and small accessories as decoration.

Note!

But the most basic material for making holiday hats is colored paper; it’s better to take office double-sided paper. It is quite dense and bright. In addition, you will need cardboard, scissors and a thin rubber band.

You need to make a stamp for the cap from cardboard. Such templates are very convenient, since the caps are folded very quickly using them using a pre-provided lock. Before you start decorating hats, you need to equip any product with an elastic band; its size should be universal, that is, it should normally hold the cap on the head of an average adult. If you are thirsty, you can replace the elastic band with ribbons. This option is well suited for those holidays to which guests of different ages are invited.

Birthday caps can be complemented with various appliques, sparkles, feathers, inscriptions

As for the decoration, it can be absolutely anything. The simplest option is to use corrugated paper. It must be cut into strips and many cuts made along the edges. This fringe can be used to decorate the edges of holiday hats or roll the strip into a ball, which will turn it into a fluffy flower. Decorations can be anything, but they must meet the requirements for similar products. Paper hats should be bright, cheerful and create a positive mood.

Anyone who has done renovations knows how to make a paper hat to protect the head while painting. But the art of folding origami is not limited to this; there are many options for paper hats. Using simple patterns, you can pamper yourself and your child with a military cap, cap or wide-brimmed pirate hat.

With lace

So how to make a paper cap? It requires:

• thin satin ribbon;
• ruler;
• compass;
• hole puncher;
• pencil;
• scissors;
• A4 colored paper.

How to make a paper cap if you don’t have a compass? No problem. Semicircles can also be drawn by hand.

Step-by-step instruction:

• We take paper of the color that we like best, and measure 7 centimeters along the long edge, put a mark with a pencil, and also measure 23 cm.
• Mark 15 centimeters along the short edge.
• We connect this mark in a semicircle with the first one.
• Then we connect the same mark in a semicircle with the second mark.
• Take scissors and cut the paper along the drawn lines, rounding the corners. The result is a figurine that looks like an alien plate.
• We place the workpiece in front of us so that the upper corner is directed in the direction opposite to you. Take a ruler and a pencil.
• Draw lines from the top corner downwards at a distance of 1 centimeter from the edge.
• We take a hole punch and start punching holes along these lines.
• Now we take the ribbon and begin to thread it through the holes. This should be done starting from the top corner, from the back of the template towards you.
• From the right side we thread the ribbon to the left edge and vice versa. We do this as if we were inserting laces into shoes.
• At the end, tie the ribbon into a bow and cut off the excess ends.
• You can decorate the cap by gluing hearts or butterflies pre-cut from paper of a different color to it.
• To keep our holiday cap on your head, you can attach an elastic band to it from the inside using double-sided tape. Or make holes with a hole punch and thread a ribbon through them.

Cylinder

Tools and materials:

• pencil;
• plate;
• glue;
• scissors;
• thin cardboard.

Master Class:

1. Cut the cardboard intended for the top of the hat into 2 identical strips (their width will determine the height of the future cylinder).

3. Make an allowance of no more than 2 centimeters on the gluing line, cut off the excess cardboard.
4. Glue together 2 pieces of paper overlapping along the transverse side to form a long strip of cardboard.
5. Roll the formed strip into a cylinder (color side out) and overlap its transverse edges.
6. Make cuts about 2 centimeters deep at a distance of 2 centimeters from each other along the conditionally lower side of the future cylinder.
7. Take cardboard intended for the brim of a hat, place a soup plate on it and trace the outlines with a pencil.
8. Place the formed cylinder in the center of the circle and trace its outline, then cut out the resulting “donut”.
9. Place the cylinder on the table with the cuts down, apply glue to each element or use double-sided tape for this.
10. Place the “donut” on the cylinder and press it so that the glue sets well.
11. To hide the gluing areas, cut out an additional circle and attach it exactly to the top surface of the margins.
12. To decorate the hat, you can use any contrasting paper ribbon.

Fan hat
