All the news that's fit to wear Remember those make-believe games when you were a kid? The right-shaped stick became a cowboy pistol or a pirate sword, and for a hat, a few strategic folds to the morning newspaper, and voila! The things we forget when we grow up. If youžve been wondering how to get back those periodical-pleating skills, follow these steps from peak to brim for a perfectly folded paper hat (and a few variations on the theme).
You have some choices regarding your hat materials. A standard sized newspaper (15 by 22.5 inches, or 38 by 56 centimeters) will make a hat to fit most adults and kids. If you need something smaller, you can refold the newspaper (see Step 1) or try a smaller size (like a weekly paper). Construction paper works well, although it doesnžt quite have the flexible, malleable qualities of newsprint. It may require some extras to hold the hat together, like transparent tape, staples or paper clips.
