Long before the New Year holidays, you should worry about a suitable masquerade dress for yourself or your child. So, for the costume of the snow queen, you will need a luxurious white dress, which is recommended to be sheathed with sparkles and plastic snowflakes. And, of course, it is necessary to make a crown - an indispensable royal attribute. The basis of the craft will be thick cardboard or whatman paper, and you can choose decorative elements at your discretion.
It is necessary
- - Whatman paper or thin cardboard;
- - thick cardboard;
- - pencil;
- - scissors;
- - foil;
- - PVA glue;
- - flexible wire;
- - nippers;
- - white or silver beads;
- - decorative elements (beads, artificial stones, rhinestones, etc.);
- - white fur or tinsel.
Instructions
Step 1
Draw a sketch of the snow queen's crown on a piece of cardboard or a piece of Whatman paper. The length of the cardboard blank will be equal to the circumference of the head of the future owner of the fancy dress accessory. Do not forget to leave allowances at the two ends of the back of the part about 1.5 cm each. They will be needed for the subsequent gluing of the crown.
Step 2
Cut out the drawing made very carefully along the outlined pencil lines, and then close the finished part into a ring. Now you need to glue the crown along the back seam with PVA glue.
Step 3
Think bold embossed patterns on the royal accessory. To create a three-dimensional decor, glue small elements of thick cardboard on the outer surface of the product along pre-marked lines. For example, along the perimeter of the workpiece, you can arrange circles or hearts of the same size, a nice, neat wavy line.
Step 4
Glue gold or silver foil over the cardboard elements of the pattern. Thoroughly flatten the metallized decorative layer to reveal every embossed pattern and tooth. Be very careful not to tear the metallized sheet.
Step 5
Decorate the front of the fancy accessory of your choice with artificial stones, beads, rhinestones or sequins. Do not forget about the main attribute of the snow queen's costume - a silver or white snowflake, which is recommended to be attached to the central tooth of the crown.
Step 6
Make a snowflake out of flexible wire and beads of a suitable color. Arrange a dozen wire segments in the form of symmetrical X-rays, form a ring from one piece. String beads all over the wire and fasten together all the elements of the decorative element. Place one line segment in the center of the shape. You can use any other, easier or more laborious method of making a snowflake, or you can do without this decoration altogether. If desired, glue the bottom edge of the royal crown with a strip of white fluffy fur or silver Christmas tree tinsel.
