Birthday hats (the traditional cone that one buys a pack) of could be made of
His shape suggests one could tie it around his head using  colored

aluminum flashing with design cut out of it

What about a net like materials (orange construction fence cone ) 
with ocean related junk stuck in it, corks fish etc


Ok i saw him and i read that he spouts in the summer. so you also 
need a water proof hat?
