Tutorial: Quick and easy elf hats

Alicia from Felt With Love Designs shares a tutorial at So Sew Easy showing how you can make these Easy DIY Felt Elf Hats. They’d make cute props for holiday photos. Or, since they’re so quick to make, and use inexpensive materials, they would be great as costumes for a school Christmas performance. She said each hat took just 20 minutes to make start to finish, though if you had a stack to make production line style, I bet you could bring that time down considerably.
