Cut a circle out of red tissue paper, roughly 4-5 inches.
Apply glue to one inch of one end of your toilet paper roll.
Place the tube in the center of the tissue paper circle (glued end down) and then wrap the tissue paper up and around the end of the toilet paper roll. Let it dry.
Make one long chain of pipe cleaners by twisting them together in this order: 3 red, 3 white, 3 red, 3 white, 3 red.
Using a thumbtack, poke a hole near the edge of the red end of the toilet paper roll.
Poke the red end of your pipe cleaner chain into the hole about ¼ inch, and start winding the pipe cleaner around the tp roll.
Make a glue line down the tp roll as you go. Wrap the pipe cleaner chain around and around the tp roll, tightening and scrunching it together as you go. Add more glue as you work your way down.
When you’re all the way to the end of the tp roll with your pipe cleaner chain, cut a small slit in the end of the tp roll and slide the end of the pipe cleaner into it so it stays in place.
Fold your cardstock in half and trace around a jar lid on it. Cut out the circle and glue the two layers of cardstock together with a light layer of glue. Let dry.
Using a thumbtack, poke two sets of holes in the paper circle as shown in the photo.
Cut two 2-inch sections of your last white pipe cleaner and string them into the holes in the white circle, as shown.
Use the pipe cleaners to fasten the circle onto your headband.
Glue the open end of the tp roll generously and place it in the center of the paper circle that’s fixed to the headband; let dry.
You can use hot glue if you don’t want to wait!
Once completely dry, your Dr. Seuss Hat Headband is ready to wear!
