I have something like a million cardboard paper towel tubes
sitting around. I kind of hoard them, waiting for a project that requires a
tube to hit me. So, when I decided to make a St. Patrick’s Day leprechaun hat
craft, the tubes came in handy.
Here’s What You’ll Need:
·
A cardboard tube
·
Scissors
·
Clear-drying school glue
·
Green felt
·
A marker
·
Green card stock
Here’s What to Do:
1. Cut
the cardboard tube to whatever size your child wants.
2. Put
the tube on the card sock. Draw a circle around the tube, leaving a few inches
to create a brim for the hat.
3. Trace
the inside of the tube onto the paper. Hold the tube in place for your child as
she draws.
4. Cut
the outer and inner circles out.
5. Fit
the end of the tube into the center of the circle. If it can’t fit through,
trim the paper.
6. Cut
slits in the bottom of the tube. These only need to be ¼ of an inch or so.
7. Push
the tube through the card stock brim. Fold the slits up under the brim.
8. Glue
the folded up tabs of the cardboard tube to the bottom of the brim.
9. Cut
a piece of green felt to match the tube’s size.
10. Glue the felt around the tube.
11. Cut a thin strip of felt. Glue it near the
brim.
Now your child is ready (after the glue dries, of
course) to put the St. Patrick’s Day leprechaun hat to use during pretend play!

ReplyDeleteFlat rate credit card processing is a pricing model where merchants pay a fixed percentage or fee for each transaction, regardless of the type of card used or the issuing bank. This simplifies the fee structure, making it easier for businesses to understand and budget for payment processing costs.
ReplyDeleteWhile convenient, flat rate processing may not always be the most cost-effective option, especially for businesses with high transaction volumes or larger average transaction sizes. However, for small businesses or those with consistent transaction amounts, flat rate processing can offer predictability and simplicity in managing payment processing expenses.
