Pirate Hat in Four Easy Step (No Sewing Required)

Two weeks ago we celebrated my sons 4th birthday and we celebrated it with a Pirate themed party. 
I will have a post about the party up soon but I thought I would start with a tutorial on 
how to make a Pirate hat in four easy steps with no sewing required!

Materials Required

• Black Foam Sheet (12"x18")
• Scissors / Exacto Knife
• Fabric Glue / Hot Glue
• Ruler / Straight Edge
  
• Chalk/Pencil
• Embellishments: Crossbones, buttons, lace, etc

Step One

Fold foam sheet in half.
Cut a 12" opening down the middle crease.
This will fit most heads from age 4 - 13.

Step Two

Draw the pirate hat outline while folded in half.
Use chalk if you have it (pencil is harder to see).
Then cut it out while folded.

Step Three

Add a quarter size drop of Fabric Glue (hot glue will work too) just beside the end of the opening you cut down the middle, fold it back up and let it dry.

Step Four

• Add buttons just above the end of the openings with fabric glue / hot glue
• If want a little extra finishing touch thread the buttons BEFORE gluing them on
• Add lace around interior edge of the top using the fabric glue for a girl version
  
• I cut out crossbones using white foam sheet and glued them to the front

There you have it, four easy steps to make a pirate hat with no sewing required! 
Let me know if you try it...I'd love to see your results!
