DIY Crown | Queen of Hearts

- Cheap and easy way to make a crown :D
Length of strips: 21.5 cm
Width of strips: 2.5 cm
The shape was certainly inspired by the Queen of Hearts in the game Alice: Madness Returns (one of my favorite games as many people know)
I have been dying to make one for myself and and so happy to finally do it. Hopefully this can help some of you out in future cosplays, costumes or just wearing around for fun!
And hopefully the techniques can be transferable in accomplishing other projects ^.^
I am beyond happy I was able to upload this
My editing software was having major issues due to the amount of footage that went into this. I was terrified I was going to lose all my editing
Luckily editing is pieces worked out, so all is well ^_^
Hope you enjoy!

I remember watching this video ages ago and I came back to it now since I'll need to make a crown with a similar structure for my next cosplay, but watching it again I realized that all the techniques you taught in this video, like using scrap foam to pick up excess glue and gluing the strips to the edge of the circle to make it bevel, I took those all to heart and use them whenever necessary. So, thank you for teaching your various tricks in this video. It may seem small but it's helped in nearly every single one of my projects.
I never would have guessed that this GORGEOUS creation was made with craft foam! I have a new appreciation for it now. NsomniaksDream, You ROCK!
Countess Rouge Haha I know, I've come to find a certain love for craft foam over the years! :D Ty!!
You must have teflon fingertips. I would have never thought this was made from foam board. Very cute.
Fantastic! This is the best DIY rendition of this crown I've seen. Thank you ❤
This looks waaaayy better than the 1 Dollar Crown I wanted to buy and it is individual. I think I'm going to try this instead of buying the cheap plastic crown. Thanks😊 the crown is gorgeous😍
I just made this last night. It was pretty quick and easy. I didn't want to paint it, so I used black, gold, and red glitter foam for each piece accordingly. I am excited to wear it with my costume.
I'm not making a crown, but your techniques are going to help me make a couple other pieces for a costume. Thanks for sharing!! This turned out adorable!!
Thank you so much! I always love being able to learn and pass on new techniques, so it's awesome you can find more than one use from this
Good luck in your costume building! :D
I will make sure to share when I'm done; I'm excited!!
NsomniaksDream lpllll
This is really cool I never would have guessed it was foam
I am in absolute shock at how brilliant this is it seems so easy now I have over complicated this process in my head and frustrated myself many many times trying to make one of these and I didn't even think of the craft foam. Thank you so much for this video.
Thank you so much! This was just what I needed for my Cat King Ichimatsu cosplay
I'm totally doing this. We are doing the Alice in wonderland experience in September. I'm excited.

I have to make a crown for one of my soloists and this video was exactly what I needed! Thank you for this excellent tutorial.
Great tutorial! This was perfect for a last minute costume I'm making. I switched a few things up (used gold spray paint instead of black etc.) and it turned out amazing!
LOVE THIS!!! When I saw the picture on fb I wasn't sure what you used to make it but would have NEVER though it was made of craft foam. Amazing job! Would love to see more videos like this!

I would love to see it! I can usually see photos posted on my fb page or pm me :D
I'm so making this for my daughter's queen of hearts costume!!! 😄
This is so awesome!!!!
This is a great tutorial! I'm making a queen of hearts costume and my friends are being the mad hatter, the with rabbit, and Alice so this helps a lot. I just have one question, how do you get the middle of the crown to stay down? I'm making mine right now and the foam keeps popping back up
Did you ever figure out an easy way? I'm on my third attempt right now and hoping to get it right this time. I used way too much hot glue on my last one trying to get it to stay in that shape
Never would have thought this was foam
I am the queen of hearts in a school play and this is amazing!
Thank you! This helped me make my last minute Queen of Hearts costume for Halloween
Ah! I'm so happy it could be of use to you!
You are queen of crafting 0_0
amazing!!!!
This is a beautiful work. I want to do a small one of this now... As a fanatic os Alice In Wonderland, I'm amazed with this work.
***** Thank you very much!
I think I could build Alice in Wonderland props all day
this is an absolutely awsome video!!!! I will definetely try to make one :D I have one question!! How did you paint it black???? Did you use acrylic paint and a paintbrush?
Spray paint!
