Thank you for your guesses, Drora and Jodi! The witch's hat is made of an aluminum lid, typically found on plastic yoghurt pots. I didn't invent this but saw a tip about it in our Dollhouse magazine. At first, I just couldn't believe it so, I had to give it a try. To my surprise, it worked very well!
The hat needed several coats of acrylic paint before it was truly black but otherwise, all you need to do is cut half a circle out of the lid and glue it into a conical shape. The excess at the lower end is bent into a brim. Then paint it and decorate with whatever you like.

Wow! That is incredible! I never would have thought to use a yogurt foil but now my mind is filling with things to try them with. Thanks Millimari! The witch's hat is wonderful!
I'd never guess it was aluminum. Mistakenly I thought you referred to the shelf. I used aluminum foil before but never for a hat. Usually its covered with tape and easier to paint.
Hugs, Drora
