Finally, I've completed the Mystery Project!

Here it is! The moment you've been waiting for! What do you get when you combine a base hat, balls, eye stalks, and tendrils? You get a Flying Spaghetti Monster Hat, that's what you get. Isn't it hilarious?

This hat will become a sort of family traveling trophy. Someone will get it for this next Christmas, keep it a year, and then re-gift it to the family member with the most need. Should be good for years of laughs and envy.
