Embellish with Leather and Cord

Embellish with Leather and Cord If you don't feel like playing with paint, this DIY sun hat project is for you. Just like the previous idea, this one is a simple makeover project. You simply get a plain straw hat from the store, add a cord around the inner brim and loop some leather around a section of the cord. Easy-peasy! I think this will look quite gorgeous if you choose nautical colors (i.e. blue cord and red leather).

Mod Podge Floral Fabric

Mod Podge Floral Fabric How pretty! I am loving the shabby chic cowboy style of this DIY summer hat. If you're itching to do something similar, you will be needing fabric Mod Podge, floral patterns from a fabric, and a straw hat. You can also make use of rhinestones and glitter Mod Podge for that extra sparkly touch. Take note, when gluing the fabric to curved parts of your hat, you will want to make a slit or darts for a smoother finish.

Add Pom-poms to the Brim How fun is this DIY summer hat? This looks incredibly easy to do as well. Basically, you will only be gluing about half a yard of pom-pom fringe to the brim of a floppy hat. You let the glue dry and enjoy your “new” sun hat. For this project, you will be needing the help of E600 glue. You can also opt to sew the pom-pom fringe to your hat using embroidery thread.

Paint a Donut

Paint a Donut This is the cutest! This is possibly my favorite among these DIY summer hat ideas. Just like most of the craft projects we have mentioned here, this particular sun hat craft will need only paint and a store-bought straw hat. Choose paint colors in fun donut and sprinkle hues. For the brim of the hat, a nice shade of pink will be great. Paint short strips all over to mimic sweet donut sprinkles.
