Bedroll Camp Hat Craft

Materials:

  • Peel and stick felt

  • Yellowknife craft foam

  • Back or green garbage bags

  • Mini hair elastics

  • Peel and stick pin backs

I cut the pieces for this ahead of time, for a quick craft for the Sparks.

From the felt, cut rectangles about 1 x 2½ inches.  Cut slightly larger pieces of the craft foam, and slightly larger pieces from the garbage bag.  I usually give the garbage pieces a little extra length.

To do the craft, stick the felt to the foam, fold the end of the garbage bag over the “blanket” and “foamie”  (to keep the garbage bag from slipping) and roll.  Two matching mini elastics are the ties, and add the peel and stick pin.  Small pieces of black or brown waxed string also make good ties, but the elastics are still needed to hold the roll together while they are being tied.

My Sparks love doing this craft at camp, and results are really cute.
