DIY: Custom Party Hats

What’s a party without a festive hat? We love how easy it is to turn our Jillson & Roberts gift wrap into a unique, personalized party hat. Perfect to coordinate with whatever your party theme may be!

We even created a template to make it easy for you to create hats of your own. Download our template here and print it on legal size paper. Then cut out and trace onto your favorite J&R gift wrap. We chose Birthday Chalk R426 and Black & Silver R991. We also cut strips of Lime 941 and Turquoise 939 to make fringe on the bottom of the hat. Before folding the paper into a cone use double sided tape to attach the fringed paper(cut with regular or special fringe scissors) to the inside bottom of the hat. Then fold the paper into a cone and tape the tab into the slit cut on the opposite end (see template).

To finish it off we added some awesome multi-color curlies – Elegant CL03 and Carnival CL11 – to the top, and some paper raffia string to either side, to allow it to be tied on! See the steps below and the finished product on our beautiful models Nataly and Marlen! Enjoy!
