Things You'll Need:
- Straw hat Artificial flowers Artificial leaves Ribbon Glue gun Scissors
-
Step 1
Create a design plan and a color scheme for your Easter bonnet. You may wish to cover your entire bonnet with flowers, place flowers around just the brim of your hat or secure a small cluster on one side. Whether you choose one color or multiple colors, make sure that your bonnet will match your Easter outfit.
-
Step 2
Purchase your bonnet and what you will need to decorate it. You can find a plain straw hat from a local discount, department or craft store. Artificial foliage is typically available at your local craft store.
-
Step 3
Using a hot glue gun, glue the artificial flowers and leaves to your straw hat according to your design plan.
-
Step 4
Cut two lengths of ribbon long enough to reach from the underside of the hat brim down past your shoulders, providing enough ribbon to tie a bow under your chin. Glue one ribbon to each side of your hat, on the inside of the hat close to where the hat and brim meet.
-
Step 5
Allow the glue to dry before wearing the bonnet. You are now ready to participate in an Easter parade wearing the Easter bonnet you decorated.
