Intro: Titanic Hat
Sunday 15th April marks the 100th anniversary of one of the most renowned and romanticised tragedies of all time; the sinking of the Titantic.

At Makedo, we're getting into character with this Titanic Hat in preparation for the many Titanic centennial dramas and documentaries about to hit TV screens... not to
mention the re-release of that film!

To board our commemoration ship, pack some flat cardboard sheets, a couple of paper tubes, a small box, bottle caps, bubble wrap and Makedo parts and you’re ready
to set sail – or sink.

Step 1: Find
Source cardboard from around your home. We’ve used cardboard from a open packaging box to create the base for the Titanic.

Step 2: Cut

Step 3: Fold
To create the ship base, curve the flat sheet of cardboard over the top and bottom sheets of your ship. This should create a point on the top.

Step 4: Punch
Use the point end of the Makedo Safe-saw to punch a hole aligned with the connector tab of the top and bottom sheets.

Step 5: Connect
Connect the two sheets using a Makedo Re-pin and Re-clip. You have now completed your ship base. To create the look of it sinking cut the base on a slight angle so
that it leans to the side.

Step 6: Connect
To complete the look of your ship, connect the paper tubes to the box using Makedo Hinges, Re-pins and Re-clips. This will be the Smokestack for the Titanic.

Step 7: Connect
Position the smokestack to the top of the ship and connect it to its base using Makedo Re-pins and Re-clips.

Step 8: Pleat
To create the waves for the water, pleat the bubble wrap around the ring of the cardboard base. Hold the pleats in place with Makedo Re-pins and Re-clips.

Step 9: Connect
Position your ship on top of the water base and connect it into place using Makedo Re-pins and Re-clips. Your Titanic ship is now complete! Add details and decorate to
complete the Titanic look. We’ve painted ours and used bottle caps as the windows on deck.
