How to make Mickey Mouse headdress

Prepare a suitable size black felt cloth and fold it into two pieces. Use white chalk to draw a circle of your choice using a cup or plate, and then decide on the shape of the ears (draw a white line at the bottom position). The same goes for the other ear.
Use a sewing machine to slowly sew the curved part (yellow thread). If it becomes smaller when turned over, it is best to sew outside the line you drew.
Cut off the extra fabric.
Turn it over. As shown in the photo.
Prepare cardboard (we use postcards here) and draw a circle shape similar to the felt cloth made in Medium, as shown in the picture.
Fold over the straight section.
Make two pairs placed back to back.
Place the cardboard inside the finished felt cloth ears. Because the entrance is very narrow, you need to roll the origami paper slightly to put it in.
As shown in the photo, the effect is as follows.
Prepare cardboard to use as a hair tie. Please match the length of the white arrow, the width of the red arrow, and the ear spacing of the yellow arrow to the model. Once determined, use double-sided tape to stick the pink cardboard ears. Cut and match the extra pieces for the ears according to the cardboard width of the foundation.
Prepare black felt strips, as shown in the photo below.
Cut a suitable opening at the bottom of the felt strip and place the notch inside.
Through the ear.
Insert both ears.
Turn over the felt, apply hand adhesive to the edges of the cuts, and glue the base plate and felt strips. Use a toothpick to spread the adhesive evenly as shown.
Also press from the top (using chopsticks, etc. to arrange the borders) and wait for firm adhesion.
Effect from the back.
Add double-sided tape to the end of the felt and stick. If you are worried about the adhesive being weak, you can sew it up with a needle and thread.
Fold the ends and sew the leather fastening part. Same steps on the other side.
The rubber band will be passed through both ends and tied. The Mickey Mouse headdress making tutorial is completed
