Steps:

  1. Download and print out the template. This template is for one side of the headpiece. 
  2. Cut template out. 
  3. Trace onto a large piece of corrugated cardboard with the corrugation lines running vertically. 
  4. Flip over and trace the inverse of the template, lining up the centers. This will give you the full headpiece. 
  5. Use a utility knife to cut out the headpiece. 
  6. Bend in half so there is a sharp crease in the center. 
  7. Use your hands to bend along the corrugation lines. This will allow it to be curved when worn on your head. 
  8. Use your hands to bend out the tips of the top of the headpiece so they look flared out. 
  9. Carefully hot glue flimsy poster board onto the front of your headpiece. 
  10. Use a utility knife to cut off all the excess. 
  11. Paint with 3-4 coats of red craft paint. 
  12. Hot glue elastic or elastic headband on the back of the headpiece. 
  13. Wear and enjoy!
