DIY A Sun Hat

Have you ever find yourself stranded out on a hot sunny day without a sun hat? I figured we need a DIY to cool down. This fun sun hat is perfect for lazy summer days by the pool or beach and its so easy!Here is a quick step-by-step tutorial to update your sun hat.


 Materials you need to prepare:

 1 wide-brim, straw sun hat
 1 spool of 1.5-inch ribbon
 1 spool of black strung sequins
 1 hot glue gun and 2 sticks of glue (You can choose what you're comfortable with,but I have to mention that a hot glue gun may be the easiest and fastest one to get teh job finished.)

 Instructions

 Step1:
 Start with your ribbon of choice and glue an end to the band of the hat.

 Step2:
 Dab small amounts of hot glue one inch apart and apply the ribbon as you go (Tips: the glue dries so fast so you’ll need to work quickly!).

 Step3:
Continue gluing your ribbon around the band until you’ve reached the other end.

 Step4:
 Fold the other end so you have a clean edge. Glue in place. (Another way to get a clean edge is to hold the end to a flame and the plastic should melt just enough so you don’t have frayed edges.)

 Step5:
 Moving to the sequin ribbon, your best application technique is to spell out what you want to say first so you know how much ribbon you’re going to use.

 Step6:
 For best results, glue each word with your hot glue gun first, then apply the sequin ribbon as you go.

 Step7:
 Don't worry about it looking perfect– that’s what I love most about mine!
