One of the most fun parts of graduating is customizing your graduation cap. Graduates sometimes go all out while others opt for a more laid-back approach. Whatever your graduation cap design is, have fun with it!
Whether you’re graduating in December or May, here are some tips to get your ideas flowing:
Come up with a design idea tailored to you
Perhaps one fo the most difficult things when designing your cap is coming up with a unique, creative idea. Pinterest is a great place to look to see how other graduates have designed theirs over the years!
Here are a few ideas:
A quote or reference from a favorite book or TV show
A Bible verse
Something funny. For example: Finally done with this B.S.
An inspirational quote
A cute design (such as flowers or a pattern)
Something related to your school! (such as a symbol like an eagle head or a slogan like GATA)
Gather your materials
Remember that you’ll need a base to go over your cap. Hobby Lobby is a great place to get materials because they have many different options of materials, whether it be paper, flowers, or Scrapbook letters! A cheaper alternative for supplies is the Dollar Tree.
