Since ancient times, a hat has been considered a beautiful and sophisticated accessory, and almost all women wore this headdress. Unfortunately, now this tradition is followed only by royalty, and modern women only on special occasions (wedding, party or masquerade ball). It’s a pity, because the hat gives the girl a special sophistication, romance and mystery.

Men would like to see a mystery in every girl, and to create an aura of mystery and a special mood they used a veil - a thin mesh covering the head. Now the veil is inseparable from headdresses, which are again becoming relevant.

A hat with a veil for a wedding is an excellent replacement for a traditional tiara and veil. A top hat, boater or pillbox decorated with an airy mesh is a great opportunity to feel like a society lady at a wedding, cocktail party or in a restaurant.

A hat with a veil can be oval, round, brimless, cylinder-shaped, cap-shaped or heart-shaped. The pillbox hat fits perfectly into the . The mesh veil covers the entire face or only reaches the lips or nose. If the hat and veil completely cover the head and face, such a headdress is quite acceptable for a wedding. Hats are decorated with feathers, rhinestones, bows, braid, beads, flowers, hairpins, brooches and other decorative elements.

You don’t have to look for a hat in a fashion boutique - you can sew it yourself. You will also find a master class on a hat with a veil in this article. This does not require any special expenses or time, and you can always choose the perfect style.

How to choose a hat with a veil

Stylists have their own secrets for choosing a hat, and combination with clothes of a certain style is not the only criterion here.

1. For a wide face with large features, a hat with the brim turned up is suitable.
2. An elongated and thin face requires a hat with a wide brim and a flat crown.
3. For snub-nosed lovers of hats with a veil, you should choose a hood-shaped style.
4. A pillbox hat covered with a veil is a universal option, as it suits almost any face type.
5. For tall girls, a hat with a flat crown and wide brim will help to visually correct their height.
6. Hats with mesh and a high crown (cylinder type) are suitable for petite girls.

How to wear a hat

The fit of a mini-hat on the head is strictly regulated. They wear it on its side, tilting it slightly forward and giving it a flirty look. You can attach a mini hat to your hair in different ways:

• hairpins (special loops are sewn on for them);
• to match the hair or hat (you can simply glue the hat onto it with a heat gun);
• combs and hairpins.

To give the shape of the veil (usually the mesh is quite soft), you need to apply hairspray on it and secure it to the head model (or other blank device). Then give it the required shape and fix it with varnish again.

Tools and materials

Step-by-step instruction

Cap options

A mini hat with a veil can be based on a wide rim, comb or hairpin decorated with flowers, ribbons, and beads.

Instead of riselin, toilet paper, napkins or other soft paper are used to make the base of the hat with your own hands from paper. To make a frame using the papier-mâché technique, place a layer of pieces of paper on a blank head or other shape (sieve, children's ball), coat them with glue and repeat this operation until the desired layer thickness (about 10 times), and there is no need to lubricate the base itself with glue. ! Use a dry cloth to periodically remove bubbles. The finished base should be left to dry for 24 hours at room temperature (on a radiator - three hours). The required shape is cut out of the blank and covered with fabric, as in our master class.

Do you like to learn new types of needlework? Learn to make hats with your own hands from scrap materials. Some options look impressive, but are very simple to implement. You can use the acquired skills to make carnival costumes, headdresses, or simply fashion accessories and original gifts.

DIY hats from scrap materials

If you are a creative person and love to do handicrafts, you should like this type of activity, especially since there are a lot of opportunities in this direction. You can make a headdress from:

• paper;
• cardboard;
• fabrics;
• newspaper tubes;
• combining several techniques at the same time.

So, there are a lot of options for making your own from scrap materials. The choice depends on the time available, the purpose of the production and, of course, what you have in stock.

Materials and tools

Do you want to make a beautiful hat made of paper, cardboard, or fabric? Then be patient and use your imagination, plus you will need the following:

• pencil;
• ruler;
• compass;

• decorative elements (beads, ribbons, bows, lace, flowers);
• base material (paper, cardboard, newspaper tubes).

The simplest options are easy to make in just half an hour.

Blank for a cone hat

Whatever type of headdress you choose, you will still have to make the base. As a rule, the role of the frame is played by a hat made of cardboard or paper. There are two ways to make a triangular-shaped accessory:

1. Roll from a rectangular sheet.
2. Perform from a semicircle.

In the first case, when a bag is twisted from a sheet, you will have to cut off the excess along the bottom side. The second option involves initially making a workpiece of a certain shape, namely in the form of a semicircle. The bottom is thus smooth and does not require trimming.

The seam is usually stapled first so that you can correct the size if you make a mistake the first time. The bracket is pulled out, and the base is fixed in another place. If the shape suits you, you can glue the seam. In addition, they usually try to make it invisible, tuck it inside or decorate it beautifully.

How to make a cylinder hat blank

If you need such a form, you will need to slightly complicate the technology (compared to the previous one) and perform more steps. A cylinder hat made of cardboard or paper will always consist of three elements:

As for the margins, they can also be made for a cone-shaped product.

To make a top hat, you need to work like this:

All is ready. All that remains is to paint the base or decorate in any other way.

Hat made from newspaper tubes

It is clear to everyone that waste paper is a waste material, but not everyone knows that colored and even black and white sheets can be used to make spectacular souvenirs and even hats.

Not everyone will be able to guess that you are wearing a hat made of paper. Such a thing will resemble a straw headdress due to its characteristic weaving. You can make it any color you want, either by pre-painting the sheets, or by creating a colored pattern on the completed product. So, the work is as follows:

This hat can be given as a souvenir, interior decoration or beach attribute.

How to sew a hat for a suit

Any of the frames, the manufacture of which is described above, can be covered with fabric. If you need some non-standard shape, for example, in the form of a mushroom, fruit, vegetable or animal, you will have to find the appropriate pattern or build it yourself. In fact, you can easily sew very unusual and original hats with your own hands from scrap materials.

The instructions for making each headdress will tell you how to make a hat from cardboard, paper and other additional materials at hand.

Pirate

Let's learn how to make a pirate hat with your own hands from paper. To implement our plan we will need:

• black paper (1 sheet of A3 format);
• hat elastic;
• scissors;
• awl;
• glue;
• White paper;
• black felt-tip pen or pen.

Instructions:

1. On black paper, draw a square with sides equal to the length of the short edge of the A3 sheet. Cut it out.
2. We round the corners, turning the square into a circle.
   
3. Fold the white sheet in half twice (lengthwise).
4. We make a fringe - we often cut the folded strip across, without touching the bottom edge.
5. Unfold the sheet and cut along the folds.
6. Use scissors or a pencil to twist the fringe on each white paper strip.
   
7. Carefully fitting the curly strips to the black circle, glue them along the entire circumference so that the curved edges of the fringe point upward.
   
8. By eye, we place (mark) three points equidistant from each other along the circle.
9. From one mark to another we make three folds that should form an equilateral triangle.
10. We bend the semicircular brim of the hat upward.
    
11. Using the fringe principle, we cut out/make two white feathers and decorate the hat with them (the side curved brim of the cocked hat).
12. For the front of the hat, cut out a white skull and crossbones, paint it and glue it onto the second folded brim.
    
13. We pierce holes on the sides of the hat with an awl.

• wrapping paper;
• decorative cord.

How to make a Mexican hat out of paper? Using tape, paints, a ruler, scissors, and a compass, we begin making:

Cylinder

Top hat is a universal hat. It is suitable for the costume of Dracula, the Snowman, and the old woman Shapoklyak. This hat with a veil will be a flirty addition to many ladies' masquerade outfits. The main thing is to decide on the height of the crown and the width of the brim, and then create the headdress itself for a specific character. For the cylinder we will need the following materials and tools:

• whatman;
• glue;
• colored fabric (paper);
• scissors.

Instructions on how to make an elegant paper hat:

1. We draw a rectangle on whatman paper (one side is the height, the other is the circumference of the crown). Cut it out.
2. We glue the pipe by connecting the part along the edges of the height of the rectangle.
3. We draw a crown around the circumference on a new sheet of whatman paper.
4. We outline the resulting circle with another one at a distance equal to the width of the fields of the future cylinder.
5. We draw a small hole from the inside, stepping back one and a half centimeters from the contour of the circle.
6. Cut out this small circle.
7. From its edge to the drawn line of the inner circle we make notches and fold the paper along the drawn contour.
8. Again we draw a crown around the circumference on a new sheet of whatman paper.
9. We cut out the part along the contour, stepping back about one and a half centimeters outward for notches - this is the top of the crown.
10. We make cuts with scissors and bend the paper along the drawn contour.
11. We glue the crown-tube with the round top part.
12. Glue the fields to the cylinder (we apply the notches from the inside of the cone).
13. We cover the hat with colored paper or fabric.
14. We decorate as desired (brooches, feathers, veil, ribbons, etc.).

For the snowman

A paper hat for a Snowman costume is the simplest version of a masquerade hat if you make a cap. A light hat made of corrugated paper - a crooked and crumpled cylinder - will be original. We already know how to make this version of the headdress. Let's try to make a cap. To make it we will need:

• whatman:
• paints with brushes;
• colored paper;
• glue;
• hat elastic;
• scissors.

1. We draw a circle on whatman paper, the radius of which is equal to the height of the cap.
2. We measure the volume of the future Snowman's head.
3. We measure this number of centimeters along the length of the drawn circle.
4. We put marks - in the center of the circle, the beginning and end of the measured line (head volume).
5. We draw two lines from the marks on the circle to the center of the circle.
6. Cut out the resulting sector.
7. Roll up the cone.
8. We glue it or fasten it with a stapler.
9. We paint with paints or paste over our cap for the Snowman with colored paper.
10. We attach a hat elastic to it.

Find out from plastic cups.
