So to start off the week is a simple DIY for your kiddos birthday party. I think that having the cone party hats are so cute. However, I find that the kids keep them on for an average of 1 minute! (if your lucky) I still want them for Maddy's upcoming birthday party. I found some really cute "boutique" style hats on ETSY but really didn't want to pay that much. Plus many of the really good quality ones are made of fabric and can be used year after year. However, that wouldn't work in my case; I don't want to be locked on a color or pattern. So I went to??? you guessed it Dollar Tree and found these sports theme party hats 8 for $1!
Then to finish it just glue on your pom pom to top and marabou to bottom. You can use marabou or just glue pom poms across the bottom. You can get a huge bag of larger size pom poms for under $3. You can get a smaller size pom pom at Dollar Tree.
I figured the total cost of this revamped cone party hat is about 67 cents (as shown) The other great thing is the string is already attached!
8 cone hats = 13 cents a hat
scrapbook paper = 33 cents (sale 3 for $1.00)
pom poms = 6 cents (2.99 bag of 50)
marabou = 15 cents (2.99 long enough for about 20 hats)
What perfect timing for me to read this post - I am making hats this week for my daughter's birthday party. :)

ReplyDeleteI have also done this with cheapo fabric, or even cheaper, repurposed clothing (thends to be less see through than cheap fabric).
