DIY Rhinestone Cowboy Hat
For my BFF’s bachelorette party, we went with a “Wild West Fest” theme because her maiden name was West aaaaand we went to Dallas, TX! It was the perfect cowgirl theme. I love making something crazy and bougie for bachelorette parties, so I told my friend not to worry about getting cowboy hats for her outfits…I had it covered! Here’s how I did it.
What You’ll Need
- White Cowboy Hat
- Hot Glue sticks (bulk) + Hot Glue Gun (personal preference is a mini vs. standard size, but you can use either!)
- Rhinestones of your choice (you need a LOT, here’s what I purchased- 1 pound for $12)
- patience… so much patience
For starters, yes I glued each rhinestone on individually. I’m sure there are other more efficient ways to do this, but this was the method to my madness and I don’t regret it at all!
In total, it took me about 10 hours. PRO TIP: Turn on your favorite TV show or movie and tackle this project on the couch. It makes the time go back a lot faster. It was 100% worth it and held up excellent all night!
