Enlarge the Witch Hat pattern; cut out. Trace the pattern onto a piece of lightweight wood and cut out using a jigsaw or fine handsaw.
Sand to smooth any rough edges.
Arrange preserved moss to cover the entire wood hat; adhere using hot glue.
Cut a piece of ribbon 3 inches longer than the width of the hat just above the brim. Position the ribbon on the hat; wrap the ends around to the back and secure with hot glue.
Use a different ribbon or decorative ornament to make a square buckle, and glue it centered on top of the first ribbon.
