How to Make It:

  1. Tie yarn around one end of a mesh produce bag. The part below the knot should fit on your head like a hat. Trim the bag above the knot.

  2. Lay the hat on a table and slide waxed paper into it. Use tacky craft glue to attach real or paper seashells onto one side of the hat. When the glue dries, turn the hat over and glue more shells on the other side. Let the glue dry, then discard the waxed paper.

  3. Shape chenille sticks into fishhooks. Attach them to the bottom of the hat.

  4. Draw and cut out fish shapes from plastic lids. Decorate them with permanent markers and bits of yarn. Punch a hole in each fish’s mouth, then slip a fish onto each hook.
