Things You'll Need

• Double-sided tape
• Scissors
• Aluminum foil
• Stickers
• Glitter glue

Instructions

1. Create the base of the hat by rolling a large sheet of construction paper into a cone shape, making sure the top ends in a point. Try it on before you secure it to make sure the opening is wide enough to fit over the head.

2. Tape the cone together with double-sided tape along the seam of the construction paper. Trim away any overlapping or extra pieces of paper with scissors. Make sure the edges of the hat are smooth.

3. Create a magical wizard's hat by adding some stars made of aluminum foil, glitter glue swirls and designs or marker shapes of your choice. Add stickers or other embellishments to customize the hat as you desire.
