Pilgrim Hat for Boys

By Sherri Osborn, About.com

Make your very own pilgrim hat using a paper plate.

Materials Needed:

  • Paper Plate
  • Glue
  • Construction Paper

Instructions:
Paint the paper plate black. Once the paint is dry, cut out the center of the paper plate. Leave the outside rim about 2 inches thick. Cut a piece of black construction paper to approximately 8 inches by 8 inches. Tape this into the circle you cut out of the paper plate so as much as possible sticks out through the top of the plate. Cut a 2 inch by 8 inch piece of white paper and glue it on the black paper where it meets the paper plate. Cut a rectangle shape out of yellow construction paper and glue it to the middle of the white strip as a buckle.
