To make this project super easy you’ll need a base hat, I found mine in Hobby Lobby. 
Check over by the safety eyes and dolls supplies, it’s a hat meant for a doll, Cost $2.99 (less if you use a coupon).Supplies:
- Doll sized felt witch hat
- polyester satin, scrap
- vintage buttons
- a variety of other fabrics, scraps
- water color paper and watercolor paint
- a Sakura glaze pen
- hot glue gun and glue sticks
- head band or elastic cord
- coordinating ribbon
I made three fabric flowers (like these) from orange polyester satin, using vintage buttons for their centers. I used some metallic platinum colored fabric to make a gathered band, hand stitching it to gather it up. I made a orange watercolor back ground, once it was dry I drew a design on it using the Sakura glaze pen and when that was dry, I washed over the whole thing with black watercolor for the center of a gather fabric rosette. I also picked a couple extra buttons to use.
Then I started hot gluing everything to the felt hat. The platinum band was glued first. I added a ribbon over the gathering stitches and the rosette with the paper center to cover the seams. The three fabric flowers were tucked in next to that and finally I added a ribbon bow and the extra buttons.
To finish I stitched the finished had to a head band. I really had fun making this project, I might have to make one or two more, they’re great for decorating too!Linking with Terrorific Tuesday!

It turned out cute! I saw some mini's at Walmart and thought they were a neat idea, I like making one better:@)
Thanks, it was a lot of fun to do. It's much cheaper and more personal too!
So cute, and I love little festive things like this - I like to get into Halloween but don't want to be the only adult in a full costume, so accessories are the way to go.
