oh my gosh I’m in heaven

Aaaaand making those hats cost, nothing, zero, nada

nothing beats a good deal ma friends

No you don’t have to steal anything from craft shop

which are like the most perfect things in the whole world and beyond (together with sprinkles and cupcakes and frosting and the rest of the things that are the best thing)

I went in a secret mission to Walmart, took my favorite colors and head out, with a full cart of groceries of course but also with enough paint chips to paint my bedroom just with them

I’m not gonna lie, I felt kind of guilty/awesome at the same time (even though they are free and everyone expects you to grab them), until I finished up the miniature hats and then I just felt awesome/awesome

Like I told you making them is easy peasy, like eeeeeasy, like so easy it only has like 4 steps or something like that

after the hats were made I whipped up the cupcakes, decorate them with frosting, tossed as much sprinkles as they could possibly hold and then obviously make them party ready with their tiny hats

and that was it, they will instantly light up every moment of your life/party/gathering/just because
