For adults! How to make a Santa hat

DIY Adults’ Christmas Santa Claus Hat: How to Make a Simple Adult Santa Hat (includes Korean: 크리스마스 어른 산타모자 만들기)

Speaking of Christmas, Santa Claus comes to mind.

I’m sure he’ll deliver wonderful presents to children all around the world again this year.

As for Santa’s red-and-white hat, it’s easier to make than you might think, so why not make a bunch and have everyone wear them on Christmas Day? If you use ordinary fabric, it’ll be too soft and the hat won’t stand up, so a sturdier felt is a good choice.

If you want an even more structured hat, make a triangle cone out of thick paper and cover it with fabric.

Using cotton for the trim adds a cozy, warm feel.

Make it with construction paper! How to make a Christmas hat

[Production] Christmas Hat - Tree Edition [Episode 10]

This project involves making items inspired by Christmas trees and Santa hats out of construction paper.

For the base, simply cut the paper into a half circle and shape it into a three-dimensional cone, which allows for a variety of creative variations.

If you’re making decorations, use a small size; if it’s for wearing, measure the head size, decide the diameter accordingly, and start from there—that’s the key.

It’s harder to add decorations after forming the cone, so decorate while it’s still a half circle, then shape it.

It may also be important to consider color balance as you create it.

Quick and easy by rolling construction paper! Santa hat

Roll construction paper for an easy Santa hat

Here’s how to make a Santa hat easily with construction paper! First, cut the paper into a cone to fit your head size.

Since you’ll attach a pom-pom to the tip, trim a tiny bit off the very top.

Tape the edge so it forms a cone.

Next, make a pom-pom with yarn.

You can also use a pom-pom maker from the dollar store, which is recommended.

Attach the finished pom-pom to the top with wood glue or similar adhesive.

Punch two holes along the brim of the hat and thread elastic through, adjusting it to fit your head.

Finally, decorate the brim with cotton to finish! Adding origami pieces or stickers for decoration is also cute.

Fluffy Bear Ears Headband

Here’s an idea for making a bear headband using chenille stems.

Instead of thin craft pipe cleaners, this uses the kind meant for making chenille dolls.

They’re thicker and sturdier, so you can simply wrap them around the headband base to form bear ears.

Be sure to secure the chenille along the base firmly with glue.

Since it’s still chenille, the ear shapes can get distorted if you squeeze or pull them hard.

Please handle with care when wearing.

You can also try making other animals you like, not just bears.

Fluffy bustier

@handmadelabo

One DAISO fabric scrap ✨ Make an adorable, fluffy eco-fur bustier♡#100-yen shop DIYHandmadeSeriaDaisoKids' clothing

♬ 2 O’ CLOCK – dori

How about making a bustier as a wintery outfit accent? You can easily make one using just faux fur scraps and ribbon from a 100-yen shop.

First, cut the fabric into a rectangle to match the size you want.

Fold the fabric in half with right sides together, then cut the side opposite the fold into the shape of a bustier.

While tucking the shoulder straps and the ribbons for tying at the back inside, sew around the edges, leaving an opening for turning.

Turn the fabric right side out through the opening, then stitch the opening closed to finish.

Baby tree cosplay

This is a Christmas tree costume made using felt fabric, ribbon, and decorative pom-poms.

First, sketch the shape of a tree on the felt and cut out the front and back pieces.

Instead of sewing the shoulders, attach elastic cord there, and sew the sides together.

Just like decorating a tree, glue ribbons and decorative balls onto the front piece, and it’s done! As Christmas approaches, headbands or hats shaped like trees will likely be available for purchase, so wearing one of those together with the costume should make it even cuter.

boa coat

Here’s an idea for a coat you can make using boa fabric remnants sold at 100-yen shops.

You’ll create and sew together the front and back bodice, sleeves, pockets, and hood.

Fur trims the hem and the edge of the hood, and the overall white, soft look makes you feel like a snow fairy when you wear it.

If you’re looking for a cute costume on a low budget, definitely try copying this.

Just be careful: when you cut boa fabric, it produces a lot of white fluff.

Depending on what you’re wearing, it might be hard to remove…
