  Step 1

  The mask came like this so I did not have to prime it in any way. I would suggest if the mask you get is not white that you paint it white with Gesso or another primer.

• 

  Step 2

  I started by painting the top part of the eyes and the lips red.

• 

  Step 3

  Next, I added a little bit of purple under the eyes, kind of looks like she has baggy eyes right now but the puffy paint will help with that.

• 

  Step 4

  I used some gold puffy paint and painted it on with a brush on the top left and right of the head. Then I outlined those areas and added details to the eyes and between the eyes leaving it puffy to give more dimension. Letting the puffy paint dry was the longest part of this whole process. You have to let it sit for 24 hours according to the bottle.

  Step 5

  At this point I didn't have the doll hair yet, so I used my hot glue gun to glue the ornament hook to the back. Then I put it on my tree so it could dry.

• 

  Step 6

  I liked the ornament, but knew it was missing something so I ran to the store to get doll hair. This was my first time working with this stuff so I really didn't know what to expect. Luckily it was cheap so if I messed up I could get more. Thankfully I didn't mess up. :)

  Step 7

  I started by undoing the pile and taking two strands together and winding it back and forth to a length longer then what I would need, don't cut the strands just yet. I used the end of the hair to tie a knot in the center. This stuff is very silky so I wasn't able to make a tight knot.

• 

  Step 8

  After much consideration about how to attach the hair to the mask I decided to use my hot glue gun. I started by gluing the middle down so that the knot wouldn't come undone.

• 

  Step 9

  Next, I glue the rest of the hair down, just around the edges so that the rest of the hair would be loose. Then I tugged on the hair gently to stretch it out a bit and get the look I wanted.

• 

  Step 10

  Time for the hair cut. I cut little bits at a time so that I wouldn't cut too much off, and I made sure that I didn't pull on the hair while cutting because of the curls.

• 

  Step 11

  Finally, put your mask on your tree and do a happy dance because it looks AWESOME!!!

This is Brilliant. I saw the picture before the title and totally knew what it was. Thanks for sharing. Think I am going to attempt making some of these for my own tree
