  Step 1

  For this project, you'll need a metal two strip headband. The one I bought was from Babyliss and had sequins on, so I removed these before starting.

• 

  Step 2

  Snip your beads, so you have one long strip.

• 

  Step 3

  Wrap the wire securely around one end of the headband.

• 

  Step 4

  Lay the end of the beaded necklace on top of the headband and wrap the wire around the first bead a couple of times, so it's nice and secure.

• 

  Step 5

  Continue along one strip of the headband, twisting the wire in between each bead.

• 

  Step 6

  When you get to the other side of the headband, secure the last bead and cut off the remaining necklace.

• 

  Step 7

  Cut the second beaded necklace and repeat the same process

• 

  Step 8

  Stop when you get quarter of the way up the side.

• 

  Step 9

  Continue twisting the wire between the beads along the necklace, taking it upwards and away from the headband.

• 

  Step 10

  Continue up until you get to the height you'd like your ears to be, then bend the wire down and continue wrapping the beads.

• 

  Step 11

  Wrap the ear back on to the base and then continue wrapping the necklace to the headband along the top.

• 

  Step 12

  Repeat the same process with your second ear, making sure the two match.

• 

  Step 13

  When you've finished wrapping the beads on to the headband, bend your ears in to your desired shape.

• 

  Step 14

  Lay the ears on top of your veiling and thread a needle with black thread.

• 

  Step 15

  Stitch the veiling on to the ears and then cut the veiling to size.

• 

  Step 16

  Repeat with the other ear.

• 

  Step 17

  Cut two small strips of black ribbon and heat up your glue gun.

• 

  Step 18

  Wrap and glue the wire around the ends, so that you'll be protected for the sharp edges.

• 

  Step 19

  They're all ready to wear!

Those are brilliant. I saw those online and thought they were cuter then the regular rabbit ears. Though not worth the high price.
