Step By Step Instructions For How To Draw A Santa Hat
Step 1. Create The Overall Hat Shape
Start by drawing a triangle that’s taller than it is wide. This will be the main part of your Santa hat.
Step 2. Form The Bottom Shape
Next, draw a big, curved line at the bottom of your triangle.
This line should stick out a little bit past the triangle’s base.
Step 3. Add Sides To The Bottom Fold
Now, draw two lines to close off the hat’s fur section at the bottom.
These lines should curve inward slightly, making the top part wider than the bottom.
Step 4. Create The Bend Near The Tip
About one-third of the way down from the top of the hat, draw a line that bends from the right side toward the left.
Extend this line past the hat’s left side, about as far as the hat is wide at that point.
Step 5. Add The Tip
From the end of the line you just drew, add two diagonal lines pointing slightly outwards.
Then, connect these lines back to the hat to form the tip.
Step 6. Draw The Pom Pom
It’s time for Santa’s iconic pom pom! Draw a circle above the tip of the hat, centered with the tip.
Add a little L-shaped line beneath it for extra detail.
Step 7. Shape The Christmas Hat
Erase the very bottom tip of the hat under the pom pom.
Then, draw two curves on the sides of the hat to give it a more natural, floppy look.
Step 8. Add Faux Fur
Finally, erase any unnecessary lines inside the main hat shape, leaving the circle for the pom pom and the bottom fold line.
Add small, wavy lines along the bottom of the hat and around the pom pom to create the fluffy, white fur look.
And there you have it, your very own Santa hat drawing! Feel free to color it in and use it to make your holiday cards stand out.
Happy drawing and happy holidays!
