I made this crown for my Halloween costume ( I know, I know, Halloween was several months ago...but Halloween is everyday for me =P ). The dress was a white dress that I dyed pink. The hot pink fabric was added on with a sewing machine, and the turquoise pendant was made with a plastic jewel and gold FIMO clay.

You Will Need (7 things)

  • 1 Gold Fimo (Metallic)
  • Empty Container(s) With Lid the Oatmeal one is perfect!
  • 4 Jewels 2 Blue, and 2 red
  • 1 Gold Metallic Paint
  • 1 Scissors /Craft Knife
  • 1 Hot Glue Gun / Fabric Glue
  • 1 Glue Gun

Steps (6 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Take your empty container and draw a four point crown on it. Cut out your crow from the container using scissors or a craft knife.

  2. 2

    Use a white base coat to help cover up the logo and paint your crown gold. I did about 4 layers on mine.

  3. 3

    Taking the gold clay make a two long strands, or four smaller strands of equal size. (These are for the band around the crown.) Place the crown/container onto your baking pan to help shape the strands. Remove your container/crown before you bake ;)

  4. 4

    To make the placings for the jewels, make four equal balls with the gold clay. Take your jewels and push them into the balls to make the placing. Bake all your placings and strands according to the directions on the back of the clay packaging. (Remove the jewels before baking!)

  5. 5

    Glue all your pieces together to finish the crown =)

  6. 6

    I glued combs (I think that's what they are called) to the inside of the crown to help it stay in my wig. This is optional.

    Ta-da! You're crown is done. =)
