Anyone going to the Coney Island Mermaid Parade this weekend? Lucky you!
Although, if you have a munchkin at home like these little ladies, I’m guessing the answer is no. Sadly, despite its name friendly name, the Mermaid Parade isn’t exactly munchkin-friendly. Hello tattooed bearded lady! Did you paint that bikini all by yourself?
So for everyone who can’t make it to the parade this weekend, for whatever reason, I thought it might be fun to make some mermaid hats.
I heart hats. I heart craft foam. Tada, a parade is born!
Wahoo those are cool!!! Thanks for that idea! YOu’re a crafting legend!
I love passing on the weirdness to munchkins! You got yourself some pretty little models there, they pull off your creations almost as well as Lola. Nice one!
What a couple of sweethearts! My munchkins would luv this project! We can wear them at the pool!!!!
So easy and lovely! Those stickers are super cool, and of course I can see doing all kinds of themed hats this way. A craft is born! And I think the netting really makes it extra mermaidy.
Gorgeous Girls! Wonderful Project.
My hero! Those are beyond fab…
Adorable!
Looks like fun too :]
Look at those two; they are rocking their mermaid hats! Great kid craft Peaches, with endless potential!
I went to the mermaid parade yesterday and despite all the nudity, it was quite family friendly. There were several kiddie mermaids IN the parade, including a little girl on 15-ft tall stilts, carrying a parasole that read “It’s my birthday!” She was pretty amazing. There were also at least 3 pregnant mermaids, but that’s another story.
