PREPARATION
- If the design needs to be resized for your project, click 'Customize' to open the project canvas. Measure the object you plan to use, then use the tools in Design Space to resize the design to the desired size. Make sure all elements are selected whenever resizing coordinating pieces.
- Apply Heat N' Bond to the back of the felt using a home iron or heat press. CUT
- Follow the prompts in Design Space to cut your felt. ASSEMBLE
- Use an iron or heat press to attach the pieces of felt together for the main crown. We used light pink on the inside and dark pink on the outside for a contrasting look. The two layers of bonded felt give the crown spires the rigidness to stand.
- Attach the 'jewel' cutouts and adhere with an iron.
- Embellish the crown spires by gluing on fake jewels or other decorations, such as chain, filigrees, or foil iron-on.
- Measure the person's head the crown is meant for, or test fit, and glue or sew into place to finish. Trim off any extra crown length.
