Party top-hat made of playing cards

Step 10 First one done, make them for all your friends and family

That was it - whole project takes about an hour, or two when you do that for a first time.

Don't be afraid of improvising with sizes and colors.

When you're done, make another one for you friend, put them on and go to a party - others will just die of envy.

Hope you enjoyed the process.

Great idea for making the hats, but step nine isn't really necessary, is it?

[Sergey Chernyshev]

Yes, it's not really necessary except that it hides the staple ends and will not tangle your hair and scratch you.

what i found worked really well was stapelling an old beanie and putting that so the edges just come out from the tube part makes it very comfortable and i made my hat a little too big and it also sorted out that problem but thanks for the instructable

[Sergey Chernyshev]

Yeah, that would make edges soft and easy to wear.
Can you post photos?

i havent finished the underside of the brim yet but as soon as i do i will. its so annoying having a big head as ive already gone through 2 packs of cards

here you go its not as neat as yours but oh well and i gave it a trial run through town earlier and got some odd looks but people seemed to like it http://www.instructables.com/id/playing-card-hat-mod/
