... Recently at work, we've gotten this amazing hat and... let just say.. its pretty pricey.
So naturally, I reverted to my usual "I can make that..." and here it is... my DIY conversation Hat. I also wanted it to say something a little more "me" and I feel like this is a great hat to personalize or customize for any occasion (bachelor party, birthday, vacation.. etc.) PLUS the total project only cost me less than $20 with the hat being 95% of the cost.
Materials used:
- Wide Brim Hat
- Ribbon
- String Sequin
- Tailors Chalk
- Hot Glue Gun
First, I used tailors chalk to outline what I wanted it to say. I decided to keep it in the back so people would still be able to see/ read it but I put it slightly to the side for a bit of style.
This step wasn't necessary, but I wanted to take off the original trim.
I started hot glue- gunning the string sequin to the outline, carefully using as little glue as possible, so that it wouldn't show.
Added my own trimming, and cleaned up the excess glue.
DONE!
