Straw Hat Pins

Moms, Grandmas and all the women in your life will adore these pretty straw hat pins! They’re easy to put together and oh-so-festive!  

What you'll need:

  • Small straw hat (about 3 or 4 inches wide)
  • Small silk flowers and berries
  • Raffia
  • Hot glue gun
  • Pin back

How to make it:

  1. Tie a piece of raffia around the rim of the hat. You may find it easier to tack the back in place with a dab of hot glue so that it doesn’t slide off while you are tying a knot or bow. Tie into a knot and trim the ends or make a pretty bow.

  2. Decorate the rim of the hat with small silk flowers and/or berries. Use fall colors to highlight the season.

  3. Hot glue a pin back to the back of the hat.
