I love me a good hat and parties are that special time where cute crowns and party hats are an awesome accessory. I made this hat to party into 2015, is that where you're going to wear yours? Are you going to style yours with a Starburst Necklace?

DO IT!:
  1. Twist two or three pipe cleaners together to form a circle that fits around your head. Use a few more pipe cleaners wrapped around to reinforce the strength of your base circle.
  2. Dump and dollop of Mod Podge or white craft glue and a pile of glitter onto the wax paper.
  3. Roll the cotton balls around in the Mod Podge until they are fully covered and then roll them around in the glitter to fully disco-ball-ify them. Let dry for about an hour or so until the glitter feels hard and secure.
  4. Connect more pipe cleaners perpendicularly to the circle you've already created by twisting them into place. Then connect the other ends all together to form a pointed top over the round base. Use a spare pipe cleaner to secure all the loose ends together at the point of the hat/crown.
  5. Hot glue the glitter cotton balls to the top of your hat, you could use 1 or 3 like I did and now you're ready to party and get that New Year's kiss! Muah!
