DIY Faux Fur Hat

-To begin grab your measuring tape. The kind that works best is the loose kind that fashion designers use.

-Measure around your head by wrapping the tape around and meeting the two ends and mark where the ends meet.

-Now measure from the top of your head down to see how far down you would like the sides of your hat to go. You probably at least want it to go halfway down your ears.

- For the top of the hat find something circular that matches the size of the top of your head. A dinner plate usually works for this. When you find the matching size, take your plate and place it on your chosen fur. Draw and cut your circle out of the fur. Repeat this for the lining.

- Take the measurements from earlier and draw out the dimensions on your fur and your lining. Cut these pieces out. You should now have a total of 4 pieces of fabric; two of the fur and two of the lining.

-Pin the front of the rectangular pieces of fabric together. Do the same for the round pieces.

-Take your round pieces and sew around leaving a small hole open; Pull right-side out through this hole.

-Take your rectangular pinned pieces of fabric and sew three of the sides, leaving one of the long sides un-sewn; Pull right-side out.

-Sew your round piece (lining facing you) to your rectangular strip (along the un-sewn side).

-Turn the entire hat inside out. You should only see fur now and the lining should now be in the inside of the hat.


Enjoy your fabulous hat!
