I want to use the hats as a centerpeice. Will they stand up by themselves, or would they need to be stuffed with something?

It's like the picture shown when wear. Because its made of cloth, i guess you can use fabric stiffener to stand up. You may also stuff with stuff of course. Hope ths helps.

Jerry, the brim has enough body to stand up, but you may want to stuff tissue paper in the top to get certain effects, like to make it stand taller & puffier?! It does have some body & pretty well stays put on ones head, whether wearing with slanted top or looking as a full hat. Hope this helps?!

Jerry, I just tried it. It will stand, but you really do need to stuff them with something if you want it to stay upright. Hope that helps.

You'll probably need to wrap it around something like a coffee can/other large-ish cylindrical container. Stuffing them would work, too.

They might stand a little, but not likely to look as cute as the picture without some tissue paper stuffed inside.

If you're planning on putting a few in each centerpiece, you could get away with it. They're not that big. Each planet has a little hook on it to hang from the ceiling -- you could use some floral wire with that hook to get them to stand up.

Yes, probably standing up too. For sure laying down. I don't use the 8 oz so I'm not sure of their exact size. There's not much I haven't been able to fit in there.

They are bottomless. They wouldn't be good for center pieces how ever my daughters first birthday was sock monkey themed and for center pieces I used mason jars and filled it with red, brown and tan candies and stuck flowers in those! They do make great cupcake holders though. Hope that helps!

They are not one solid piece but the heads don't come off either. (At least mine haven't yet.) They must be glued on it something. The heads of mine aren't loose at all or act like they want to come off.

You have to put them together. It is not that hard. I did it by myself in a short period of time.

Yes the bag stands on it's own. I used mine to put sand crystals in with a battery operated tealight. They worked well with my table decorations. :-)

Not sure exactly but you might want to put a book or something for them to stand on.

It comes with metal two sided pieces to attach to bottom so it should be able to stand alone. I don't remember how long they are. Maybe 7-8 inches

when you stand it up, the "bottom" is partly the hard plastic shell and partly a canvass, zippered small compartment. it really depends on the weight distribution, but having something in the small compartment seems to work... (a sweatshirt, pair of shoes, etc.). i don't use it often, but when i do, it's packed to the brim and stands up just fine.just read k. miller's reply and i think we agree it's all about weight distribution. but as i mention, put something in that small compartment and it props it up.

I would NOT suggest using these cones for hats. They are heavier than other cones and the bottom would not fit a child's head. They would be on the top of the head and stringing the opposite corners for a strap would not hold them on. I think felt cone hats would be easy to make and stay on the head better. Good luck.

It is relatively easy to put together, so it would be relatively easy to take down. If you are getting this to do with shows I would reevaluate your decision though. Mine Is just in a corner in my house so it just stays right there and I got it because you can spin the racks around to get your hats.

I don't see why not. The wig stands have a really nice shape for hats like that.

Stable stands up by itself. The figurines need to be flattened on the bottom in order to remain standing.

They do with some work, persistence, and patience. My wife only had them up for a few minutes. We will not have them out on display until after Thanksgiving. So I don't know if they will stand on their own indefinitely.

Personally, I have mine standing by itself, but I think it would depend on how much you plan on "extending" the screen out.

Hello Kathleen, I would recommend purchasing a vase, you cant really see it in the photo, but basically there branches, but to answer your question, no they don't stand on there own, and yes I would purchase a vase.
