How to make a free printable New Year’s Eve Party Hat:

Print my free printable New Year’s Eve Party Hat template on white cardstock paper.

Cut out the New Year’s Eve party hat, carefully cutting the two white slits on the hat tab.

Using your X-Acto knife and self-healing mat carefully cut the New Year’s Party hat slit – I freehanded it but you could also use a ruler as your guide.

Take apart some curly ribbon bows – I had these left over from Elise’s stickers birthday party – or you can curl your own ribbon.

Grab a couple curly ribbons and fold in the middle.

Tie a knot in the middle of the curly ribbon.

Place the knot inside the New Year’s Eve party hat. Fold and curl the New Year’s Eve party hat, slipping the tab inside the slit.

The New Year’s Eve Party Hat will look like this when it’s together.

Cut two pieces of white ribbon about 12-16 inches long each. Tape them to the inside of the New Year’s Eve party hat using VELCRO Perfect Presents, tape, or a stapler. Party on!

Hi Tricia, it is actually from one of those curly ribbon bows that are pre-made that you can buy in the gift wrapping section of Walgreen’s or whatever, the kind that you peel off the sticker and stick it on top of a gift. Yes, I am a packrat. Pulled it off of one of Elise’s birthday gifts in October and put it in my ribbon drawer. Good luck finding what you are looking for!
