Hey, crafty friends! Today, I'm thrilled to share a step-by-step guide on creating your own bungeoji hat – a chic bucket hat that can be tied with a charming ribbon string. This versatile accessory is not only practical but also adds a stylish touch to a variety of outfits.


Let's dive into the crafting process:


1. Creating the Brim:


  • Fold the outer material in half and cut with a 1cm seam allowance.
  • Fold the adhesive core in half and cut it (seam allowance x).
  • Attach the adhesive backing to the inside of the outer fabric.
  • Prepare the lining with the same fabric as the outer material.
  • Place the outer fabric with the adhesive backing facing the outer side of the lining.
  • Sew with a 1cm seam allowance.
  • Cut to fit the shape of the outer material.
  • Turn it over and iron it.
  • Top stitch the edges.



2. Making the Bucket Hat Top:

  • Prepare one piece of outer material and one piece of lining with a 1cm seam allowance.
  • Cut 5 pieces each for the outer fabric and lining with a 1cm seam allowance.
  • Attach 2 pieces to both sides of the center piece.
  • Sew with a 1cm seam allowance.
  • Cut the seam allowance at the corner diagonally and sew the remaining piece.
  • Connect the three tower pieces.
  • Place the outside facing each other and sew.
  • The top of the outer fabric is completed.
  • Sew the lining in the same way to complete the lining top.


3. Assembling the Hat:

  • Connect the brim and top of the bucket hat.
  • Place the outside facing each other, fix and sew.
  • Attach a string to the back of the top (string length: 50cm).
  • Connect the outer fabric and lining.
  • Use scissors for the curve at the back.
  • Tie a ribbon according to the size of your head.
