I had seen this idea floating around Pinterest & thought I would give it a go, fun, easy, inexpensive & upcycled, can't get much better than that! This is what you need: -matte black spray paint -clean empty coffee can or something similiar with a lid, I used a cardboard hot chocolate cannister for one hat. -ribbon -exacto knife -glue gun -assorted Christmas picks,greenery, bells etc. -black foam core board (if you only have white, you'll have to paint it) Everything was readily available at the dollar store, except the paint. First I spray painted my clean cans & lids, allowing them to dry while I got everything else ready. Once the circles were cut out, I used a sharpie to colour the exposed edges. All ready for the fun stuff ! Isn't it looking pretty? Now have fun, play around, use bits and pieces to create whatever makes you happy. I had only planned on making one hat but I loved it so much I made more ! Told you I couldn't just stop at one, now I'm off to fill them with some Christmas goodies ! Enjoy!
