Read to the end of the post to win BLOG CANDY! :)
Last year I saw a wonderful project that inspired me, in one of the Northridge publications; the Simply Handmade Sewing issue in 2011, look on page 18 for the witch hat by Brianne Neville! There's a tutorial in that issue, but it's a fairly easy project to recreate!

Distress the edges with ink or scrape them, then layer them on the hat and bling it up or dress it up with paper "roses" and tulle. It was really easy! I did paint my hat brim black first, though Brianne did not for hers, so it's up to you to paint or not.
This sweet little hat is probably my favorite Halloween decoration in the house right now. :) I hope you are inspired to make your own!
