1Print out the template.

Print out the paper visor template on Letter or A4 size cardstock.

2Decorate the template.

a.)   Draw and color - draw patterns like stripes, dots or swirls. You can draw your favorite characters, write your name, and just be creative and draw anything you like.

Remember to leave out the center section, bordered by the pair of dotted lines.

b.)   Glue some cut-outs - glue stuff on the visor like paper cut-outs, put some neat stickers on it, or accent it with some colorful washi tape. However, do not put anything too thick as these may affect the visor's shape.

You can draw details on the cut-outs you put. The paper kitty I glued onto a pink visor needed some eyes, a nose, and some whiskers.

c.) Add details beyond the template outline - draw details sprouting from the top edge of the template such as a pair of eyes or a pair of small ears to make an animal-shaped visor.

If there isn't enough space for the detail you want (e.g. long bunny ears), you can always just draw them on a separate sheet of paper and later glue them onto the visor before Step 8.

4Score along the dotted lines.

Scoring creates a crease that makes folding the paper a lot easier. Find a scoring tool such as a blunt plastic knife, spent ballpoint pen, or a pencil.

Score along the dotted lines by running the scoring tool across both lines. Make the crease as deep as you can (without puncturing the paper) by applying pressure as you run the tool along the lines.

5Fold up along the upper line.

Fold the visor up along the upper dotted line. Further crease the line by running your finger along the fold. Unfold.

6Fold down along the lower line.

Folding down along the lower crease is a bit tricky because the line is curved. Crease down along the curved line a section at a time until the entire crease has been folded downwards. Unfold.

7Apply glue.

With the creases created, apply glue on the section inside the two dotted lines.

8Fold up along the upper crease.

Next, fold up along the upper crease and press on the area to glue it in place.

9Create the brim.

Hold the visor at the middle of the folded edge. With your other hand, carefully bring the curved edge of the visor towards you. This step creates the visor's brim or front part.

10Bring the ends towards the back.

Hold both ends of the visor and carefully push them towards the back to allow the visor to assume a more curved shape.
