Cheap mini top hat making tutorial

Post by AdrenaLynny » Tue Jan 05, 2010 2:08 am

I started a blog a few days ago and my very first step by step tutorial is for a really inexpensive mini top hat. I know a few of you liked them so I figured Id post the link here.

yaaaaaaay - thanks for this...

I have recently brought some top hats which I am looking to decorate, but I dont know how is best to attach them to your head... any ideas??

Was thinking of gluing elastic on, attaching them to clips - but just dont know what would be most appropraite.

It depends on what size the hat is. My biggest one is attached with ribbons and tied under my head. Smaller ones can be glued/sewn to clips, or to headbands.

Ill be posting new tuorials as I go, but honestly I always use hot glue. There is almost nothing that cant be solved with a healthy does of molten skin blistering glue.

Thanks for making this.
