In this post, you will find how to make this decorative paper quilling hats by following few steps. These vibrant colored quilling hats are really easy to make. I wanted to create this project from the last couple of days and finally, I have created these hats to gift to my friends. You can use any size of paper for creating these hats, I am using 10mm, 3mm and 1.5mm width of paper as these are really very narrow and thin and the output is beautiful as hats and its flowers are tiny and cute. So let get started with this project.

Creating Base
Step 1:
Take 3mm red quilling strip of 17inches long and create a loose coil with the help of quilling tool. For creating the loose coil, roll the strip of paper with a tool and take the coil out from the tool without applying glue. Now take circle guide and keep the coil in 20th circle of the guide to unroll it. Once the coil is unrolled, pick the coil carefully and apply glue on the end of the strip.
Step 2:
Now hold this loose coil in one hand and press the center of the coil with handle of quilling tool to create “C” shape (refer above image). Once we get this “C” shape, take 8 inches of a red strip and wrap it around the shape. Start by applying glue and then wrap it around the shape, secure the end. Create Total 12 such shapes.
Step 3:
Now take same color card stock or thick paper and draw a 37th circle from circle guide. Cut the circle and fold it. Now cut the inner part as shown in above image. This you will get Donut like shape.

Step 8:
Take 10mm Red strip of 12 inches and wrap it around that flower base in such a way that flower should be above facing.
Step 9:

Step 10:
Now take 3mm yellow strip of 5 inches and glue it around bottom of the ring.
Step 11:
