With Halloween just around the corner The Paper Hat Book: Super Hats for Super Kids could be just the book you need to make darling hats for you and your kids along with fun decorations. Leave a comment in today’s post by Monday September 1, 2014 and you will be in the running for this adorable book filled with excellent tutorials and patterns like this bunny cone hat.
Pop on over to Craftside for the tutorial and to download the patterns for this bunny cone hat. One of the great things about this book is the author Alyn Carlson talks about all sorts of great ways to use recycled materials to make the cute hats. We love that around here!
More about the Quarry book:
“Hats are pure fun and the perfect item to cap off any costume or ensemble. The right headgear ensures complete transformation, especially on the head of an imaginative child.
The Paper Hat Book offers creative families 20 fantastic paper hats, all of which can be created quickly and easily from readily accessible papers: shopping bags, newspapers, comics, recycled story books, magazines, packaging scraps, and junk mail!
Artist and designer Alyn Carlson creates hats that are perfect for birthday parties, playdates, costumes, and everyday dress up. Each hat can be styled to perfectly suit the wearer by merely selecting the right paper and colors. The hat themes range from Floral Flappers to Viking Warriors, and from superheroes and pirates to beautiful butterfly hats.“
