Decorating Graduation Cap
Besides making your own graduation announcements, you can
also decorate your graduation cap. Decorating graduation caps is a great way to
get a few classmates together to hang out and crafted a little bit before the
big day.
Materials:
- Graduation cap
- Picture of idea for cap (apple)
- Scissors
- White crayon
- Jewels/Gems (brought a pound for $8 at Hobby Lobby using a coupon)
- Tweezers (helps when laying the jewel down on the cap)
- Jewel it! (Type of glue for the jewels) $ 4.99 at Hobby Lobby
I really wanted my graduation cap to reflect my personality
and future career. We (me and classmates) started by making a list of things we
would want on our caps. We deceived we would make apples because were graduation
with a Bachelors in Elementary Education and will soon be teachers!! I just
printed a picture of an apple from clipart and cut it out. I placed the cutout
on top of my cap and drew around it with a white crayon. Once the white outline
was on the cap we started to bejewel or bedazzle the cap with gems/jewels. It
is better to start from the inside out using the jewel it! glue and jewels. Remember
to leave a little room from your tassel. (By the way, not one jewel fell off
and it’s been 3 weeks)
