Snow queens, princesses and snowflakes have always been popular. But after the release of the cartoon "Cold Heart", beautiful ice ladies are just in trend. Both little and big girls like to be the masters of frost and blizzards. Of course, demand creates supply, and it will not be difficult to buy a crown for such a suit. But such crowns are either very primitively made, or they will cost a lot. But the crown of the Snow Queen with your own hands is not at all difficult to make, you can save a lot and get your own unique decoration.

Simple and budget

The simplest do-it-yourself snow queen crown is made from a minimum set of materials.

You will need:

• Ready-made plastic snowflakes, abundantly covered with sparkles (there are a lot of them in stores before the New Year, and after the holiday they can be bought for a penny on sales).
• A strip of white fabric measuring approximately 60 x 8 cm.
• Elastic band 2 cm wide, about 60 cm long.
• Scissors.
• White threads.
• Sewing machine (can be sewn by hand).
• Glue gun or clear craft glue.

The work needs to be neat, so you may need a 3 or 2 liter jar (depending on whether the crown is large or small). It will be convenient to put on jewelry on it and work calmly with a needle or glue.

First, put the elastic on your head so that it fits snugly, but does not cause discomfort. Cut off the required amount. Then measure the circumference of your head and make a strip of fabric to the desired length. Sew it into a tube of such a size that the elastic fits exactly in it. Don't make the common mistake of cutting as much fabric as the elastic, because it will stretch. Glue the snowflakes around the circumference, taking into account the future tension of the fabric.

Frozen

For little girls, a cardboard craft in the style of a cartoon sorceress Elsa is suitable. To make it, use this master class. DIY snow queen crown is made from inexpensive materials that are easy to find even without leaving home.

You will need:

• Plastic hairpin comb.
• A sheet of thick cardboard measuring approximately 20 x 20 cm (even a thick box of cereals will do).
• Scissors.
• Pencil.
• Gold Acrylic Paint.
• A turquoise stone with one flat side.

This crown for the snow queen costume is done like this: fold the cardboard in half and draw the outlines of the crown.

Look at the pictures from the cartoon, note that the base of the crown is the central sharp protrusion, and three curls extend from it. It is not difficult to repeat the shape, but if it doesn’t work at all, print out a picture of the crown and copy it. Add 1 cm to the bottom for attaching to the scallop and cut carefully.

In the center of Elsa's crown is a notch and a turquoise stone. Make this cutout, but don't forget to leave some cardboard for the bead to stick on. Paint with golden paint, glue a pebble. Press the crown lightly to make it round and glue on the comb.

More paper crown ideas

According to a similar principle, the crown of the snow queen can be made with your own hands from cardboard, glue and sparkles for manicure.

To make it functional, you need to glue a strip of cardboard inside, buy a white or shiny headband and glue this crown to it.

Well, and another more complex variation of cardboard, sequins, headband and brooches.

A crown of sparkling icicles

An older girl will need a more elegant snow queen crown. It is also easy to make it with your own hands.

To make you will need:

• 70 cm hard wire.
• 5m very fine wire.
• Oval beads.
• Teardropbeads.
• Sandpaper.
• Colorless varnish.
• Cutters.
• Elastic band 20 cm.

A big do-it-yourself snow queen crown takes longer to make than children's cardboard counterparts, but it will easily survive more than one carnival or photo shoot.

First you need to prepare the base of the crown. To do this, cut the required amount of wire around the circumference of your head, leaving 2 cm of stock on each side. Bend the ends into a loop and treat with sandpaper and colorless varnish so that they do not scratch the skin and do not cling to the hair. The crown can be left in this form and fixed in the hair with hairpins, or you can thread the elastic through the loops and securely fasten it to your head.

Then, with a couple of turns, we fix a thin wire on the base and begin to make an imitation of icicles. To do this, we string 10 beads, teardrop-shaped and another oval. We pass the wire back through 11 beads, except for the top one. It turns out a small icicle of beads. Similarly, we do the rest, but of different lengths. In order for the icicles to stand evenly, you will need to twist them horizontally with each other. It turns out sparkling like ice, the crown of the snow queen. With your own hands, you can make earrings or a bracelet suitable for the costume from leftover materials.
