Simple, quick and easy to make a crown for your little girl to make her feel like a princess or queen.

If you have a lot of time to prepare, then we make a kokoshnik on a frame, or using cardboard, we cut out a template, according to which we will make a crown for the Snow Maiden or a snowflake.

Unfortunately or fortunately, our kids are designed in such a way that they need a crown instantly, literally in a few hours, or even better in a few minutes.

Notice the crowns above. Each of them is done quite quickly, which cannot be said about these crowns in the next photo.

The first one is made using the kanzashi technique. A fairly well-known technique that has gained popularity is when a product is made step by step from ribbons. This first photo, you see, is beautiful and exclusive, but very fragile and not suitable for children.

The second photo is a creation made from beads; it can be either on a wire frame or without it. Look how sequins and large stones fit in here.
The rest of the beads complement and add charm. You will find all these details in any bead store, there will also be wire, stones and everything else that is required for such a creation.

Photo 3 is a kokoshnik embroidered with threads with beaded elements and made on a frame. Such beauty requires a lot of patience, attention and perseverance from needlewomen.

These crowns are very beautiful, but they are not suitable for little girls, since the time required and the amount of labor exceed the few minutes that little girls are willing to endure.

Therefore, we will consider quick ways to create crowns, at the same time they are very impressive and beautiful, not at all inferior to kokoshniks, having the main advantage - they are light!

from foil;
from a plastic bottle;
from a peat pot;
from a cardboard roll;
frame decorated with tinsel;

Many photos and videos available will show how to repeat them on your girl’s head, which will make it easy to recreate them.
It's time to practice and make one of the suggested ones or your own version based on photo ideas.

Have you already chosen a hairstyle for your princess?

Foil crown

To create such a crown, you need a roll of baking foil, tear it off and make voluminous rolls, creating a ring, then attach the top to it.

The foil bends well and maintains its shape. In addition to the crown, you can make other signs of royalty.

It’s very easy to add new parts or entire units, the only disadvantage of this material is that if it’s compressed too much, it’s very difficult to straighten it out, but we recommend using everything you have at home and decorating it in 2 layers, giving it a “silver” look.

Crown made from a plastic bottle

We immediately found 3 options, they differ in the method of adding color and decoration, but the basis is the same - these are familiar and familiar plastic bottles that are found in every home.

Golden

The gold crown is a plastic bottle painted with varnish, its main advantage is that it is not closed in a ring, it covers ¾ of the head, which allows anyone to wear it, a decoration according to their own opinion and taste.

Pay attention to the photo, painted plastic is well decorated with stones and other decorations.

You can buy them in the store or look for them from the needlewoman’s mother in her “hamster” supplies. Often purchased just in case. Choose sew-on stones or ones with a flat inner side.

What is the crown decorated with?

The stones are glued using a hot gun or superglue. Sequins are glued around them; one bag will be enough to decorate the entire surface. Beads are also suitable, but we recommend choosing small ones, they weigh less.

Diadem

To create a tiara, you need a 2 liter bottle and a template, according to which we will draw a design with sparkles. Then we carefully cut it out and it is ready, if there is still time, then we paint it and glue rhinestones and stones, so it looks more valuable.

Lilac

The base is a plastic bottle wrapped in glitter paper, and the front is decorated with rhinestones in the shape of shells or sequins.

Prepare a 5 liter bottle and draw the outline of the top part on it, first measure the baby’s head. The head volume should be equal to length the resulting shape and bottle.
To make it look beautiful and without alterations, draw the outline for the first time not with a permanent marker, but with a proofreader or pencil, and only after correcting mistakes with a marker. We want to reassure you, even if it didn’t work out the first time, it’s okay, because the front part will be decorated and the flaws will be hidden.
We cut out the edges and make sure that they are 1-2 mm larger than the outline, because By running a lighter along the edge, we will make the edges less sharp and dangerous for the child.
We paste over inner part shiny paper, this can be wrapping paper or from gift bags. We do this with tape, a hot gun, or whatever superglue we have on hand. Remember about double-sided tape, it will stick perfectly to the plastic and hold the paper.
We glue the sequins using a hot gun or superglue, applying from bottom to top so that the bottom layer overlaps the top.
We decorate the lower part with matching tinsel. For better fixation, use a stapler; it will speed up the fastening process and the staples will not be visible, because she's brilliant. Double-sided tape will also work.
To make sure the structure is strong, turn it upside down before trying it on, let it dry for several hours so that the glue sets everywhere, if you used it.

This crown is suitable for a queen or a mermaid, or maybe a butterfly or a queen. It all depends on the chosen color of the suit and the mood of your beauty.

Crown made from peat pot and cardboard roll

And these materials are definitely available in every home.

You will need: a cardboard roll of foil or a baking sleeve or film, possibly toilet paper, paint, washcloth, stones and sequins for decoration, a mustache clip, hot gun or superglue, paint brush and pen.

Its production is very similar, with a crown made from a cardboard roll, so we will not give the second description.

We draw peaks on the crown so that we can see the necessary cutouts.
We paint with white paint, it’s better to take acrylic, we need to paint our future crown inside and out;
We cover it with golden paint so that our crown looks like a real one, we use a sponge for this.
We decorate with rhinestones, beads, sequins, then glue a hairpin for fastening.

When making from a cardboard roll, you need to make a bottom. Leftover rolls are perfect.

Place the crown on cardboard or any thick paper. Draw a circle according to the shape, but you should get 2 circles. One is equal to the diameter of the crown, and the second is 2-3 cm larger.
We cut out in a larger circle and make cuts, right up to the second circle, we bend these sections, we glue them inside so that the bottom holds tightly.
It is extremely important to glue inside, because... the outside will look less aesthetically pleasing, so make sure that you don’t get confused and that all the tails of the bottom are inside.
The remaining points are similar.

Frame decorated with tinsel

Tinsel or rain is wrapped very tightly on the finished frame, preferably with glue or 2-sided tape; if possible, add beads to the peaks of the peaks.

It is important to check and remove any sharp or scratched parts using tape or other means. If there are sharp ends, drop them on them using a hot gun or dip them in PVA glue and let them dry.

Talk to your child what shape of crown she wants, show her different variants, but choose not the most complex ones.

Tinsel with a steel vein has appeared in stores; if you find it in a store, you will speed up the manufacturing process several times. There is no need to wrap anything, you just need to connect the individual parts.

We make a beaded crown on the frame, but such a crown cannot be called simple and quick, so it was left out of the top, but crowns sometimes turn out simply breathtaking. To make it you will need: pliers, round nose pliers, wire, beads and beads, a lot of time and patience.

Lace crown

We starch any lace you like or grease it with PVA glue (or rubber glue), let it dry, paint it with acrylic paint and give it the desired size (put it on a jar or bottle).

What to do if you don't have lace?

Take a closer look, perhaps there are some lace curtains or an unnecessary blouse with openwork elements. This will do too. You just need to cut out the desired openwork element of the required length and then everything follows the algorithm, so don’t worry, even if this piece is stained or stained.

The advantages of this crown are its simplicity and accessibility, the disadvantage is the time it takes to dry.
The video will teach you how to make a lace crown:

Paper crown

Paper is a material that is found in every home, so it is the easiest way to make a crown in a matter of minutes. Naturally, it will be far from festive and will be simple, but if you spend a little more time decorating it, you will see that it will surprise and delight many guests of the holiday party.
Which crown options are the simplest:

according to a paper template;
origami;
diadem;
kokoshnik;
from a paper plate.

Nowadays, many templates have appeared on the Internet; if you print them out and place them on a hard base, you will get a crown; an alternative option is to glue them to cardboard.

Pay attention to the 5th and 6th crowns, just cardboard or paper decorated with sequins, and in the second case lace and some beads are glued on.

Before you start cutting out the crown, measure the child's head to determine whether it will have an elastic band or fit tightly.

How to make a work of art from a simple crown?

Choose a suitable simple template, the simpler the better. Apply it to whatman paper, print it out and transfer it in a pencil, or immediately draw peaks on whatman paper.
Cut according to the template to the required length. If the Whatman paper is not very dense, then glue the inside into another layer or with colored silver paper.
Purchase from a craft store: silver-colored snowflakes, braid with rectangular or pointed, silver-colored rectangular parts, glitter glue or glitter (gel glitter), simply replace it with PVA glue and glitter.
On the cut out template we apply a pattern in shape reminiscent of drawing frost on the windows only in a very simplified version, leave room for snowflakes - they are the main accent of the crown, glue them using a hot gun or super glue. Lay a braid along the edge so that each bend has a border of them. If you don’t want to draw, then choose a piece of fabric with such a pattern in white or transparent.
Try on the finished crown and sew on an elastic band if you have planned one, but pre-treat the edges with tape or glue wide elastic band, if you did not glue the 2nd layer of whatman paper.

It is important to choose everything in silver color, then white + silver will look elegant and in the style of snow.

This crown is suitable for both a snowflake and the Snow Queen, as well as a princess or other fairy-tale characters.

For a crown using a template you need: a crown template, cardboard from the box, silicate and super glues, beads, beads, sequins, a hoop, rhinestone stickers, a container for glue, brushes for glue and a tool for laying out beads.

How this can be done at home is shown step by step in the video:

Crown for the Snow Queen

A kokoshnik is made from paper in the same way, as is a tiara, for decoration, tinsel or rain is often used, but the braid looks more advantageous, as do snowflakes instead of sequins.

Kokoshnik

Using origami technique

You will need: a sheet of paper and strictly follow the folding instructions, decorate it with rhinestones, sparkles, snowflakes, beads and seed beads to match your princess’s costume.
But that's not all to make a high crown using the origami technique. It is enough to bend the required sides correctly.

What to do if the threads are the wrong color?

When making a crown from threads of the wrong color, you shouldn’t be upset, you can paint it, but then you shouldn’t tie in beads, it’s better to sew them on later.

If you are knitting along the edge, another option is to put the beads on a loop, but if you want them to be on top of the product, then it is better to string them on a thread before knitting and knit them through a double crochet, so all the beads will lie on top. Single crochet, we show 2 knitting methods in the photo. 1 is an option on the Russian-language Internet, and 2 is an English-language option.

Sew the elastic band to the plastic form on both sides.

Tiara crown

We will need: an old tiara, mesh with sequins, tulle of 2 densities blue and white, snowflake, scissors and threads, sewing machine.

In order for our snowflake to be fixed and stay on the tiara, it is necessary to make a hard backing from tulle.
To do this, measure the size of the snowflake, applying it to the tulle and make a cut with a margin. From the resulting piece we make a dense, dense assembly either with a needle or with a machine. The denser the base, the better, so we make assemblies frequently.
The resulting volumetric part will not suit us; we need to make it flatter and evener using an iron with the tulle or guipure mode.
We adjust the blue tulle onto white.
The third layer is a thin white tulle, it will be the background for the snowflake. Therefore, we lay it in an uneven fold and then attach it.
We cut off the lower uneven edge of the tulle, then glue the tiara to it on top, thereby covering the seam. Glue using a hot gun.
Similarly, glue a snowflake in the center.
We cut off all 3 layers giving the crown a shape similar to a diadem. We move from the sides to the center, where our snowflake is located. Check that it is symmetrical.
Then use an iron to add volume and fluffiness to the back layer.
The fairytale princess's crown is ready, it's time to try it on and go to a ball or matinee at school or kindergarten.

When all the branches are covered, you need to connect the petioles of the first and second leaves with wire or thread and secure. This wreath of autumn leaves can be worn on your head or hung on your door as a decoration. Then you need to make a loop.

Here's how to make a leaf wreath or home decoration. With others interesting ideas right now you will be introduced to the following videos:

There are many people who make tiaras, but they all make them the same way - they use wire to fasten absolutely everything together, including the base itself. I’ve seen and touched such products and it’s...it’s not good). My way of making such things is the golden mean between hand-sculpting and professional factory execution.

So, we will make a crown like this:

We will need the following things: a soldering iron, two medical clamps, a wooden board, flux and soldering fat, rosin, lead-free solder, a sponge for cleaning the soldering iron tip, hot glue, instant glue

Crystals of two sizes, emerald colors, pink opal, champagne and dacs (can be found in different price categories - Swarovski, Preciosa, on the Chinese website), beads of different sizes and shades (China, Zlatka from Leonardo specifically in my case, as well as met. elements, or disassemble purchased ones), metal decorative elements - openwork leaves, flowers, main elements - metal ovals - in in this case everything is in gold/bronze, filigree - I buy it at a local store, you can also order other parts from China, which can be seen in the photo below. By and large, there is no point in describing the entire decor in detail, because everyone will have their own design, the main thing here is the basis.

The main components of the crown are the rim, filigree, and metal ovals.

Let's begin. We insert the soldering iron into the socket. We work carefully, the solder is very fluid, it can fall from the tip onto your lap or burst, and then hot drops will fly everywhere. For example, into the eyes, as it happened to me.

The clamps are needed to avoid getting burned, since the entire surface will become very hot.

Apply flux to the surface of the rim.

We collect solder by leaning the tip against it.

If the solder is without rosin, then first moisten it in rosin so that it is more fluid, otherwise it will be too thick and will not lie on the surface.

We begin to apply solder to the rim treated with flux. We lean the tip with solder against the rim and apply the solder. We simply move the tip like a brush, making sure that the solder lies down.

So, we have tinned the surface of the rim on which we will solder filigree elements.

We are preparing the filigree for soldering. We will solder it in three places - places of adhesion to the rim. We estimate the filigree to the rim in advance and mark these points. We apply fat to these places

We collect solder and apply it to the fat with a touch of the tip.

This is how we prepare all the filigree.

We mark the center of the rim, take the filigree and lean it against the rim, secure the position with a clamp. Firmly so that the filigree does not move during the soldering process. Otherwise it will be crooked.

We collect solder, lean the tip against the places where the solder was previously applied to the filigree in the places of planned contact, hold the tip a little, the solder between the filigree and the rim should warm up, melt and flow, fastening them together

Along the circumference of the rim we solder the rest of the filigree in the same way, the only difference is that on the sides they will also be attached to each other.

We fasten the second filigree with two clamps to secure the position.

We press the contact points of the filigree with a clamp, apply grease to the place where they are fastened and apply solder.

We lay the rest of the filigree around the circumference of the rim in the same way. Remember to let the solder cool before removing the clamps. At least 15 seconds.

We attach the combs to the rim. We tin them in the same way as the rim at the beginning.

We press it tightly to the rim. We warm the surface with the tip with the collected solder, so that the solder previously applied to the ridge melts and creates adhesion.

Now it's the turn of the metal ovals. We need to solder one oval to one free filigree. The selected contact points are in the photo.

We press the filigree to the back side of the oval, apply grease to the contact points and apply solder.

Result

We take the finished filigree and oval element and press it with clamps. Apply fat to the contact points and use the tip with the collected solder.

We fasten all the parts in this way along the circumference of the rim. We adjust the height of each part as desired.

The base is ready. Wash thoroughly with dishwashing detergent and dry immediately with a towel.

We take wire and beads, rhinestones, decorative elements and twist branches from this.

We glue the crystals with hot glue.

We take thin threads of beads, glue the crystals around the perimeter with gold, and black glue the twisted edges of the ovals. Glue it on with glue.

These are former earrings. Bought specifically for disassembly. I tore out some stones from them. Glue them (all the rest of the decor, twigs, etc. with hot glue)

Slowly fill the entire surface of the base with decor.

And we get this result)

All crowns are made according to the same principle, the difference depends on the decorative filling, which is often very difficult to solder, especially for small elements on the tops of the crowns, such as here.

A lot of people are engaged in making tiaras, but they all make them the same way (badly) - they bind absolutely everything together with wire, including the base itself. I’ve seen and touched such products and this... this is not good). My way of making such things is the golden mean between hand-sculpting and professional factory execution. To be honest, this is especially difficult to do because of the constant fumes from solder in large quantities, so you need to do this in a well-ventilated area, keeping animals and children out of there.

But in general, a woman and a soldering iron hand in hand - very romantic!) Videos with soldering processes periodically appear on my NastyaNoyabr instagram, so if anyone is interested, welcome). By the way, there will soon be a giveaway with several prizes (decorations + materials for creativity;) In the meantime, I’ll add a few crowns while there is room left).

Thank you for your attention!

It is very important to use accessories in children's games. They give the game a realistic touch, and are appreciated even more if they are made by hand. A paper crown can be used not only for entertainment, but also for theatrical performances held in kindergartens and schools. Hurry to please your child, and we will tell you how to make a paper crown at home.

Paper crown

To get started, prepare:

Now you can get down to business. We perform the following actions:

Paper crown: option 2

Let's make the crown in a different way. For work take:

cardboard with low density;
elastic band;
hot glue gun;
elements for decoration (can be replaced with felt-tip pens, paints or pencils).

Let's do the following:

Color the crown with whatever you want: paints, felt-tip pens, pencils.

Volumetric crown with golden shimmer

This crown will be a little more difficult to make than the previous ones.

Prepare for work:

paper;
glue;
scissors.

We do the work:

Smooth the finished crown with your hand and you can put it on!

Crown for a girl

Prepare the following materials:

high-density colored paper (30 cm wide and 30 cm long);
cardboard;
scissors;
compass;
glue.

We make a crown for a girl as follows:

Snow Queen/Princess Crown (with snowflake)

To make a beautiful crown, prepare a sheet of paper, scissors, and glue.

We perform the following actions:

Draw the outlines of the crown (you can use templates).
We cut strips of colored paper, 25 cm long and 7 cm wide.
For the base of the craft, we make circles in the amount of 20 pieces, diamonds in the amount of 2 pieces. We connect the circles with glue to get the 1st row.
Glue diamonds in the gaps between the circles. This will be the 2nd row. We repeat the procedure, alternating circles and diamonds.
To make a snowflake, glue together multi-colored rhombuses and circles and fix them in the center of the crown.

Advice! To make the crown look more magnificent, make each subsequent row a little larger than the previous one.

A crown made using the quilling technique looks very beautiful.

Monarch headdress for boy

Any boy will be happy with the chic crown of a real king.

You will need:

a sheet of high-density paper;
scissors;
glue;
rhinestones and beads for decoration.

How to do?

Make a strip for the base of the crown and glue its ends together.
Take paper of a different color and cut out 2 more strips, which should be wider than the previous one. Glue them to the base with the letter X. Measure it on your head and see if anything is in the way.
Cut out 6 stripes to decorate the crown. Trim one end of the strips to create a semicircular oblong border line. Glue the opposite side of the strip to the base of the craft from the inside. It turned out something like the sun with rays.
Study the photo of the crown and give the stripes the appropriate shape. Attach the decoration to the top. Decorate the craft with the prepared decorative elements.
