| Finished top hat made using craft sicks. |
Top hats on Christmas trees are as old as Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol." This one is made by cutting a large Popsicle stick into 3 equal parts, then gluing these side by side. For the brim of the wooden top hat, glue two thinner sticks next to each other and then the top part of the top hat to the brim. Glue an additional cross piece on the backside of the top hat to give the ornament strength. Paint the entire hat black and then trim it with a paper ribbon and some Christmas berries and twig. Glue a ribbon on the backside to hang your Victorian top hat to the Christmas tree.
Supply List for One Top Hat:
- one large Popsicle stick
- 3 thin Popsicle sticks
- red paper for top hat ribbon
- twig and red berries for trim
- ribbon for hanging
