Slide the band onto the hat and sew it securely in place just above the brim.
Assembly and Finishing:
Lightly stuff the inside of the cone with fiberfill to help it maintain its pointed shape.
Attach the silver star charm to the very tip of the witch hat using a small jump ring or a piece of matching thread.
Using a hot glue gun, apply a generous amount of glue to the bottom surface of the hat and press it firmly onto the top flat surface of your metal alligator hair clip. Hold in place until the glue cures.
