Leprechaun Hat

By Sherri Osborn, About.com

Instructions to make a leprechaun hat from a paper plate and cup.

Materials Needed:

  • Small Paper Plate
  • Paper Cup
  • Paint
  • Glue
  • Construction Paper

Instructions:
Paint the paper plate and the outside of the cup green. Once the paint is dry, glue the cup upside down in the center of the bottom of the paper plate.

Cut a piece of black construction paper to approximately 1 inch thick and long enough to wrap around the cup where it is glued onto the paper plate. This will be the band on the hat. Glue it into place. You can also cut out a small yellow buckle for the hat band if you like.
