Your little girl will love making and wearing this fun-in-the-sun hat. And you’ll be happy that she’s protected from the sun!

What you'll need:

How to make it:

1. Before painting, place waxed paper under the part of the hat that will be stamped to avoid paint seepage on the other side.
2. Paint foam flower stamp with yellow paint and press onto front of hat. Repeat with a smaller flower stamp and orange paint (see photo).
3. When paint is dry, glue a craft jewel in the center of each flower.
4. Glue craft jewels all the way around the hat. Use a wave pattern to add a little whimsy and keep it from being too abstract.
5. Let hat dry completely before wearing.

Tips:

• Check your local drug store, discount department store and even the craft supply store for canvas sun hats.
• If you don’t have fabric paint, you can easily convert acrylic paint by adding an equal amount of textile medium, available in the craft paint aisle.
• Be sure to use a glue specifically made for permanently adhering items to fabric. Hot glue and white craft glue will not hold the jewels on for long.
• Use other stamp designs and colors for boys.
