Easy: Making Christmas Hats with Construction Paper for Infants to Preschoolers

There are moments when you think at first glance, “Ah, this color would really suit this child.” But store-bought hats don’t always come in many colors.

In that case, why not make a Christmas hat out of colored construction paper in the perfect shade? The steps are simple, so even those who aren’t used to crafts can make it with confidence.

First, shape the construction paper into a cone.

Measure the head size to get a perfect fit.

Attach a pom-pom to the tip and add an elastic cord, and you’re done.

You can also line the part that touches the head with a soft fabric.

[Origami] How to fold and make a Santa Claus hat for Christmas

What kind of impression do you have of origami? Paper cranes? A fun pastime? In fact, origami is so popular that there’s even an organization called the Japan Origami Academic Society, and believe it or not, there’s a world championship too.

So how about making a Santa hat out of origami? Fold it small and it can become a Christmas decoration or a card accent; fold it large and you can actually wear it! There are tutorial videos, so even first-timers can feel at ease.

If you plan to wear it, using slightly thicker construction paper is recommended.

You could also make one from newspaper and decorate it with colored paper!

[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.

You’ll need cardstock, scissors, crepe paper, a stapler, colored construction paper, double-sided tape, and elastic cord.
