Make your own tea party hat to wear while sipping tea or pink lemonade with your friends! These little tea party hats are so simple, feminine, and sweet. They are the perfect activity to make with friends at birthday parties or sleepovers too! This post contains affiliate links.
I saw these darling fascinators from A Bushel and a Peck and knew they’d be perfect! We came up with our own spin and I am absolutely thrilled with how they turned out.
Make Your Own Tea Party Hat
3 flowers for each headband is a good number.
Note: I found all of these at the Dollar Tree store, cut off the stems off, and placed them in a basket. I saved a ton of money by purchasing them here vs. Michaels or Joann’s.
1 plain headband (purchased here in a pack of 48)
2 (5″ circles of white felt)
24″ of tulle (purchased here)
1 bird (Michael’s)
2 feathers (Michael’s)
scissors.
wire cutters to trim stems from flowers, if needed.
Note: I wanted to use these birds, but didn’t allow enough time for shipping. If you have the time, they’d be perfect! They have them on Amazon for bit more, but we needed enough for 28 headbands so the felt stickers were more within our budget.
Glue 3 flowers onto the center of the headband. Add a couple of drops to the ends of the feathers and stick them into place, making sure they stand up to make the hat a bit taller.
Hot glue the bird onto the hat.

Do you need hot glue or is there any other glue that would work as well?
Brandy says
Hi! Hot glue is definitely the quickest. You could probably use a white craft type glue, but would need to hold everything together as it dries. Hope that helps!

The hats are adorable – and easy. Can’t wait to use this craft with my granddaughter when she gets a bit older. Thanks!

Hi from Windsor, Ontario, Canada.
I really appreciate your post. I’m having a high Victorian Tea in May and I am doing Sew What session in the weeks before that tea. One of the sessions I’ll now devote to having the group make their own High Tea hair adornments. It will be so much fun to see what they come up with.
In my group I have retired, professors, teachers, nurses, empty nesters etc. This will be so much JOY. Thank you.
P.S. my parents had 5 children we grew up on a poultry and dairy farm and it was the best childhood. Take care to your, your family and your various 4 and 2 legged animal family.
