For this project you will need:
- Tomato Cage
- Black Poster Board
- Hot Glue Gun and Glue
- Black Tulle (I used a whole 25 yard roll of 6 inch tulle.)
- Coordinating Ribbon and Tulle
You will start by wrapping the poster board around the tomato cage, to form a cyllindar, and keep the tips together. Tape it in place. It will not go all the way to the ground in the back…that is ok. You will just face that side to the wall!
Next you will take your coordinating ribbon/tulle and made a bow for the top. Glue this and one end of the black tulle to the tips of the cage.
Take the whole roll of tulle, and wrap it around the poster board, scrunching it a bit to give dimension.
I then bunched a whole lot of orange tulle into a pile on the bookshelf it was going to be displayed on, and set the hat on top. I love the look of it, and how huge it is!
