DIY cat party hat!


Today me and my friend Lilli from the gardenia elephant decided to make cat party hat for her cat Rosie's birthday!



  • The template (downloadable here)
  • Scrapbook paper
  • Scissors
  • A pencil
  • Glue
  • Ribbon/little things to decorate
  • Tape
  • Doodle twine/string

1. Cut out the template



2.  Trace the template onto the back of the scrapbook paper






3. Cut out the scrapbook paper template-mabob


It is very hard to do this without wrinkling it, (if you use thick paper)
So be careful, but it is not the end of the world if it happens.


4. Trim the edges if not straight

5. Add tape to the edge and press closed

6. Add decorations with the glue


We made our entire thing rose/flower themed to match Rosie's name!



7.  Cut two pieces of twine, approximately the same length

8. Tape the twine inside the cone




9. To put it on, tie the twine under the cat's chin,
 and pop the hat over one ear to make it stay on.

10. Model!





11. Take the hat off your cat, since she is probably getting annoyed, and it is mean to.

Special thanks to Lilli for helping me out! Go to her blog to see how to make the cat birthday cakes that we made for Rosie and her sister!
