Floral Sun Hat

Hi guys!
I recently made this super cute floral sun hat just in time for summer, but I wasn't able to get any footage of the creation! :(
But I still really wanted to show you guys how to make it, and it was very simple, so I'm going to walk you through making this adorable sun hat.



The supplies:
- a sun hat/straw hat (I got mine from the Dollar Tree)
- ribbon (optional)
- artificial flowers
- hot glue and hot glue gun

First, take your hat, and if desired, glue on ribbon around it. Next, arrange flowers on the brim of your hat. It looks nice if you go all the way around the hat with flowers, or only in a small section. Hot glue on your flowers one at a time, and you're done!

Variation:

- Glue on small embellishments on and around the flowers, such as rhinestones or small fabric roses, like I did:

You can see small fabric roses I places around my hat; In this picture
you can see silver, bright pink, dark blue, and light purple roses.
- Glue on long pieces of ribbon on the brim of the hat that tie beneath your chin for a fun touch ;)

- Use fabric paint and decorate your hat before decorating it with flowers

- Add other things to the hat like pinecones, seashells, or fake butterflies you can find at the craft store

I hope you guys liked this project! Again, very sorry for not having any picture instructions for this craft. :(
If you decide to make a floral hat like mine, share it with me on Instagram using #wonderlandifulcrafts! Also, check out my Instagram page @wonderlandifulcrafts! And as you would know if you saw my last post, D.I.Y. Flower Crowns, this month I am doing a series of floral crafts, so this month, use the hashtag #flowerlandifulcrafts!
Bye guys!
Sincerely,
The Wonderlandiful Crafter
