DIY Crown

Hi people!  It's Hope here again!  Today I want to share a fun crown that you can make yourself!
First you need a tin pie pan and some scissors.  Cut the pie pan like a pizza with the end of the scissors.  BE VERY CAREFUL.  The edges are very sharp!
After you finish cutting, push the points up so that they are standing.  Again, BE VERY CAREFUL.  When all of your points are standing now it's time to decorate it to make it sparkly and pretty!  You can also leave it plain.  I looks great both ways!
After I finished my crown it was time to put on my Max costume and BE A WILD THING!
This DIY is great for Halloween costumes, parties, and just dressing up.  You can be a wild thing or even a posh lady!
Happy crafting!  --Hope

    This is such a great crown (and costume), Hope! We were making gold cardboard crowns just today but we could have done with some more glitter and feathers like yours. Nice one!

    Its a good idea
    Maybe you can use some colorful tape on the sharp edges, so it wont cut.

    Cheers from Mexico !
