My latest addiction is the popular fairy tale drama series "Once upon a time". For those who know nothing about the show here is a little spoiler: fairy tales go real life! Confused? Just watch the show. I am for my part watching it every day. It is such a thrilling show with twisted stories and complicated characters. My favorite show character is the Evil Queen. Mostly because of her bombastic wardrobe and her "I don't give a crap" attitude :). Inspired by the queen's amazing costumes I designed a simple tutorial for this unique hair accessory. You will need about 2 hours of your time and about 10 € ($13) of your budget. I hope you like the way I designed the "Evil Queen" hair band. Have fun by creating yours!

You will need green fabric, pencil, ruler, tape measure, matching threads, safety pin, scissors, diff. sized beads, glass spikes, plastic hair band. You can find everything on Etsy.com
Measure the width and the total length of your headband
Cut a strap based on the measurement plus seam allowance
Fold the strap and sew the side together
Turned the strap inside out with the help of the safety pin. Slide the strap onto the headband
Stretch the fabric and push the ends inside and close them with the matching thread
First attach the spikes to the headband leaving about 2 cm (1") space between each. I used 8 spikes for this project.
Then attach the beads between the spikes, vary the sizes
I attached the spikes and the beads only on one side, You can play around and create your own unique design.
