I choose to combine this task with the "Fun Hats" task by making a hat completely out of paper and tape. I ended up adding a ribbon and a twist tie before I was done with the hat.

Attached is a photo of the basic materials. I didn't end up using any staples and I added some purple paper that I forgot to photograph, a twist tie and some duct tape.

Here is a photo of the hat in progress.


Here is a photo of the rose in progress. I used the twist tie to hold the parts of the rose together:


Here is my favorite photo of somebody wearing the finished hat:


And here is a photo of me wearing the hat:


I have included Bas Moniker as a collaborator for providing the duct tape and the twist tie I used. I have included Tom Barringer as a collaborator for providing encouragement to dress it up more when I was ready to call it finished.

This hat is really beautiful to me and I will wear it out quite a lot I know.
