I am going to make some of these! I think I might add glitter to mine ooooh I just had a picture of them on pumpkins!!! ooooh boy I better get crafting! lol

That is a nice craft! The paper defintely gives the hat a nice looking texture.

That's an awesome and easy craft! Thank you so much for sharing Do you know what she meant by 'dry brushing' ?

"dry brushing" is a method used by blotting MOST of the paint off of the paint brush onto a rag or papertowel and softly dragging the paint brush across the surface of the project to give a light "dusting" of color and this still allows for the main color in the crevices to still be visible. when drybrushing dont go into the crevices, drag the paint brush accross the raised portions only.

hope this helps

It helps greatly. Thank you so much!

I don't have any plans for a witch, but I still think this turned out great. They remind me of the hats in Harry Potter too.

I had always wanted to try this. It looks like a nice stress free project. I tend to go with the projects that take weeks, and months! It would be nice to do something with more instant gratification for once.

Those hats look great! The 'modification' options are endless... maybe a coat of glow-in-the-dark clear paint?
