Step 1

Gather supplies for the project

Gather your supplies for this project. Wash and dry your hat if needed— this is especially helpful if you’re upcycling an old hat! Tape off any areas that you don’t want to accidentally get paint on.

Step 2

Mix paints with True Snow

Begin mixing up your paint by scooping out a dollop of some True Snow onto your paint palette, and then add a few drops of Tulip Brush-On Fabric Paint. Mix thoroughly and add more paint as desired.

Step 3

Begin painting your DIY floral baseball cap

Now is the fun part—begin painting your DIY flower hat! Start by painting the leaves and foliage as the background, then the flower petals, and finally the floral disc in the center. Don’t be afraid to experiment and create fun dimensional textures! Try layering the paints, allowing to dry in between layers, for even more depth and dimension.

Step 4

Completed flower hat

Once you’re satisfied with your painted designs, allow your hat to dry for at least 24 hours. Carefully remove any painter’s tape, and voilà! Your DIY flower hat is now ready to wear on all your summer adventures.
