Bonnet Stand How To
By Betty

|
Supplies: You will need a base, dowel, craft paint, foam ball,
tulle, ribbons,and silk flowers. Colors of your choice.

|
|
After drilling a hole in the base to fit the dowel, it
should fit snug, or you could glue it, or a screw from
underneath into the dowel. Paint it, the craft paint
dries in 1 hour (I gave it two coats). You will need
to carve a hole for the dowel, a paring knife worked
for me.

|
I stretched a section of panty hose over the ball
(just to tone it down some), and straight pinned near
the hole then trimmed excess away. Next I put the
tulle over and gathered it to the base and wrapped
sewing thread around and tied.

|
|
Trim the tulle, add ribbons and flowers.

TA DA FINISHED Very quick and easy but will use more
color next time. Betty
