At this auspicious day, there is one common thing that everyone loves to have and that is a Christmas hat. Rates of even the smallest of things are skyrocketing these days so why not get the family together and try to make a Christmas hat at home this time?
When things are in your hands, you have the option to make a hat out of different materials ranging from construction paper and shopping bags to cloth and cotton. It’s not always about saving costs, in fact, it can be a fun activity for the entire family. You can also gift these hats to your loved ones just like the gift manufacturing company Ebrain is doing. They have been connecting people by providing easy to use products and gift items to the entire world for the past 11 years.

Coming back to Christmas hats! Lets try a few types of hats for the coming holiday season.
If you’re going with paper, the materials you would need include, red construction paper, cotton, glue, stapler and a compass. First step is to take the construction paper and cut out a half-circle according to a person’s head. After you’ve done that, turn the circle into a cone shape and staple where the ends meet. Now form a cotton ball wide enough to be visible and glue it on the tip of the cone hat. You can also glue the cotton around the base of the hat to give it that popular Christmas look. If the hat is small and children are not being able to handle it, you can always add a chin strap with rubber band for the little ones.
You can also make a cloth Christmas hat with a slightly different technique. First of all you need to draw out an outline of a hat on a piece of paper wide enough to fit the head, after you’re done with the drawing, take a red piece of cloth and place it on the outlined drawing. Take scissors and start cutting the cloth according to the drawing you just made. Now start sewing the cloth into a hat-like cone shape and after you’re finished, take a white strip of cloth and sew it on the base of the hat. In order to give the hat that authentic christmasy look, you can glue a cotton ball on the top of the hat and you’re ready for celebration.
The easiest and quickest way to make a Christmas hat is to make a paper origami with a pom pom on the top of it. All you need is one piece of paper and a few creases and you’re good to go. It is not a very fancy one, but it is one option to consider.
