2. Step 1
We're going to make party hats. I'm going to show you how to make a
flat top hat or an engineer's hat out of newspaper. The first thing you'll
need is your newspaper base with a relatively shallow bowl.

3. Step 2
You're going to take your scissors and you're going to cut out around the
hat. You're going to cut the newspaper off leaving the front so that you
can make a bill.

4. Step 3
You're going to cut right underneath the masking tape to about there and then
just cut it off. Now you're going to take your paper from here and kind of cut a
bill shape with it or an engineer shape if you will. Going through all your layers
of paper. And this is going to become a flat top hat or engineer's cap by using
masking tape.

5. Step 4
You're going to put rows of masking tape all away across your hat. It's okay to
tape it right on down to the table so that you have some to put underneath so
that you have your hats secured. Once you've put your tape all away across
from side to side, you're going to also want to come here and give it strength
this way and then go ahead and take it off. Flip it over and tuck it under.

6. Step 5
And then just to secure it a little bit more you might want to put a little
tape here in the back so that you keep your brim and the inside of your
hat doesn't fall out. Helps if your masking tape is cooperative. And once
you have that done you're ready to decorate your hat.

8. Step 7
I've decorated my hat with a little bit of paint, a little bit of glitter and then foam
letters, but of course you could put your favorite sports team on here, you could even
cut out something from the newspaper with your sports team or paint it with stripes,
blue and white stripes and you have an engineer hat. And that's how you make a flat
top hat cap or an engineer's hat out of newspaper.
