How To Make A Santa Hat Out Of Construction Paper
1 – Download and print your Free Santa Hat Craft Template. (Get yours by clicking the pink link towards the end of this post.)
There are four sheets to the printable. Print the first two sheets (beard, moustache and hat trimmings) onto white paper. The third and fourth sheet are for the hat. You can print them straight onto red paper like we have or print them onto white paper to colour in or trace around.
2 – Cut out all your template pieces.
3 – Glue the two white hat trimmings onto the red hat bands.
4 – Staple the two red bands together at one end to make a long band. Turn the band up-side-down and glue the triangle hat pieces equal distance along the inside of the red band. (Use the photo above as a guide.)
5 – Now staple the other ends of your red headband together to make a circle. (Measure it to fit the head size of the wearer.)
6 – Bring the points of the red triangles together and glue them one by one on top of each other to close the top of the Santa hat.
6 – Glue the white pom pom onto the top of the Santa hat.
7 – Glue the beard onto the rim of the hat. (Measure it against the face of the wearer to glue it at the correct height.)
8 – Position the moustache just below the wearers nose and glue it into place.
