- Age Guideline: 5 Years and Up
- Time Required: 30 minutes (Does not include drying time)
The above age and time guidelines are estimates. This project can be modified to suit other ages and may take more or less time depending on your circumstances.
Materials Needed:
- Paper Plate
- Ribbon and/or Lace
- Artificial Flowers
- Hot Glue Gun and Glue Sticks
- Stapler
- Hole Puncher
- Scissors
Instructions:
Punch two holes about 1-inch from the edge of the paper plate, directly across from each other. Cut two pieces of ribbon about 24-inches long. Thread one end of each piece of ribbon through each hole you punched so that the end is on the back side of the plate. Staple the ends to the plate near the hole. You will use these ribbons to tie the bonnet to your head.
Turn the paper plate upside down on your work surface. The back of the paper plate will be the top of your Easter bonnet. Decorate the back of the paper plate using artificial flowers, ribbon, lace, or anything else you want! If you don't have any artificial flowers, you can try making your own flowers.
