Instructions
- To make one, cut out a basic Uncle Sam-style hat (about 2 inches tall and 1 inch wide) from white craft foam.
- Use markers to color the brim blue and to draw red stripes on the top.
- Glue the hat to the handle of a wooden craft spoon (if necessary, first use scissors to trim the wooden handle so that it's shorter than the hat).
- Glue on googly eyes and a cotton ball beard, then draw on a small L-shaped nose.
- Attach a self-adhesive pinback (sold at many craft and bead stores), and your Uncle Sam pin is ready to wear.
