Title: Fast birthday hats?
Post by: Daniel M on June 30, 2008, 09:52:51 PM

Hello Everyone,
Often people ask me for a hat with their age on to celebrate their birthday & usually ask for crowns & cake hats, though sometimes they want something fast & simple & I need more ideas?
       I am sure that that you have had to make birthday hats many times yourselves & would be grateful if you could share any ideas.

Thanks,
Daniel M

I come from Leyland, Lancashire. Quite a group of Northerners here - sorry to go off topic, just got a touch excited!

This is the simple version of the hat I use most often when twisting for ladies (of all ages)  I write the birthday message on the hearts.  It uses 5 balloons but only has about 6 twists.

Normally I will embellish the hat with a 260 bow in the back and a string of pearls around the spiraled balloons in front.

I have made many name hats & yes they do take longer than birthday hats which only need two digits.
This is one that I usually use.[attachment=0:3ixkt0ds][/attachment]Name-hat.jpg[/attachment:3ixkt0ds]

Daniel,
I really like that Bday hat!  It may not be the fastest, but it sure is eyecatching.  I can see making that at a Bparty for the guest of honor.

Thanks for sharing it!
