How-to: Floral DIY Party Hats

Bridal & Party· Paper Crafts· Party Decorations

I love creating my own party accessories and decor – don’t you think floral party hats are just fitting for this season? I mean, it’s spring after all. I’m probably not the only one who loves flowers so much! These DIY party hats are so easy to make you can create a large amount in less than 30 minutes – no kidding. And they turned out great, too. I think they’re just perfect for a cake smash photo shoot or party. See how I made them down below!

DIY-party-hats-floral-consumer-crafts-unleashed-1Supplies needed to make your own floral DIY party hats:ClickLinks1

  • Silk Flowers
  • Core’dinations Smooth Cardstock (in your color of choice)
  • David Tutera Shimmer Mesh Sheets
  • Scissors
  • Glue Arts Glue Glider Pro or other adhesive
  • Silhouette Cameo or Portrait (optional)
  • Circle Punch
  • Hot Glue Gun
  • DIY Party Hats Template
  • Stretchy Cord, Headband or Ribbon for fastening

DIY-party-hats-floral-consumer-crafts-unleashed-5Step 1. Cut your party hat. Use the template I created to make it even easier! If you are cutting a bunch by hand, I suggest that you create a template first on sturdy cardboard to trace onto your cardstock. You can also print the template directly on cardstock and cut the solid line.

DIY-party-hats-floral-consumer-crafts-unleashed-5If you are lucky enough to have a Silhouette Cameo or Portrait (which I totally recommend getting by the way if you are an avid crafter) – you can use it to cut the party hats for you! Much easier.

Step 2. Assemble your party hats using your glue glider or any roller-type adhesive. It makes it easier to assemble the hats with this kind of adhesive as it sticks instantly. You can choose to use liquid glue as well but they take longer to dry.

Use a circle punch or whatever-shaped punch you prefer, or even use your die-cutter. If you are using a Silhouette Cameo or Portrait, I have found that it cuts perfectly on the Faux Leather Paper setting. 

DIY-party-hats-floral-consumer-crafts-unleashed-7Step 4. Cut off your silk flowers from their stems – it’s usually easy by using a pair of sturdy scissors. If you are having problems with cutting them off from the stems, you may want to use a wire cutter.

DIY-party-hats-floral-consumer-crafts-unleashed-8Step 5. Assemble your DIY party hats! First you want to glue your flower onto the party hat. I used hot glue as it will hold the silk flower better in place. Wait for it to dry before proceeding to the next step.

DIY-party-hats-floral-consumer-crafts-unleashed-11Step 7. Finally, attach it to your chosen fastener. You can use a headband, ribbon or stretchy string to hold your party hat firmly on your head. And you are done!

DIY-party-hats-floral-consumer-crafts-unleashed-2These cute party accessories were so fun to make! And with a floral topper to jazz it up – these DIY party hats are certainly an eye catcher!
