FALL DOOR WREATH...SCARECROW HAT!!!

Easy

I saw this posted and knew I had to make one. All you need is an old straw hat and a few items from the Dollar Store! (I got my hat at GoodWill!!)

Fold down the brim and start decorating. So simple I found the hat at GoodWill.

The traffic was bad after Irma so I bought cork rounds which I painted white and added black felt dots!

All the other items...hair, flowers, ribbon came from the dollar store.

I glued a small piece of black fabric onto cardboard with Elmer's glue and cut out the mouth. The nose if from a scrap of orange cloth.

I had enough supplies to make 3 hats!

Here is my work space. Scissors, glue gun and supplies.

I used cork circles painted white and black stick on smaller felt circles to make the eyes. Attached to face with hot glue gun.

The hat came from GoodWill; the hair is from Dollar Tree and I wired around the crown of hat before bending top of brim forward; and leaves were from Dollar Tree silk flowers which were randomly hot glued into place. The hat I posted has the fake hair.

This second hat also came from GoodWill is a little smaller and has raffia hair which is from the Dollar Tree.

fabric is difficult to cut small things neatly so I glued it to cardboard with Elmer's glue, let it dry overnight. Of course if you want, you can make luscious red lips!!!

P.S. The "hair" is a headband from the Dollar Tree! I could not resist silky, long blonde hair for my scarecrow Hottie!!!

  Thanks, it was fun to make. I also made one for my daughter-in-law and she went right home and hung it! This girl was meant to wear red! LOL (This one has raffia hair which I think I like better)
