Q&A for How to Make a Paper Hat

Use a bendable ruler to measure your head, then measure your paper you are making the hat out of. Soft tape measures for sewing work great.

Only if you punch holes and put in elastic to go under your chin and keep it on your head.

Yes. It would make a nice school project.

Only if you have a very small head! A normal sized piece of paper would work for a doll hat. Try it out and you'll see what size it is.

You could staple it together or use duct tape, which is sturdier.

You can, but the hat likely won't be very sturdy if you plan on wearing it. Otherwise, go ahead!

You can get a bigger piece of paper, and if you don't have one, you can tape a couple of pieces of paper together. You could also use poster board or cardboard.

Any art or craft supply store should have it. If not, order it online from Amazon or any other trustworthy website!

Anything will do! I recommend yarn, because it's cheap and pretty easy to find in stores.

You can use any paper you like for the heart hat. Paper plates are stiff and already cut in a circle, which is why they're easy to use. But if like a different paper, and don't mind cutting a circle, you can use any other strong, quality paper.

The paper has to be a circle. Cut a circle out of your paper. Cut along a radius. That is, make a line from the centre of the circle to the end it follows. And make a slit there. Then start folding and rolling it. Use tape or glue to hold it in place. With this method, it is bound to have a point.

Use the steps outlined above, but start with a smaller piece of paper.
