Sun Goddess Crown / Headband
Intro: Sun Goddess Crown / Headband
Super easy, inexpensive project with big impact and wow factor. Great for cosplay and adding pow to a costume.
STEP 1: Materials
Plastic headband
Zip ties
Metallic spray paint or
metallic acrylic paint and brush
STEP 2: Lay Out Zip Ties to Create a Pattern for Your Crown
You can use zip ties of all equal length or a variety of sizes to create dimension.
STEP 3: Zip the Zip Ties Onto Headband
I started the center and worked my way down each side evenly until done.
STEP 4: Paint
Paint one side, allow to dry. Flip over and paint other side. Allow to dry.
STEP 5: Wear With Head Held High!
Enjoy!
STEP 6: Bonus!!!
Can also be worn as a necklace, two ways!

I can't beleive this is zip ties! Nicely done :) Would be fun to wear as a necklace, but I'm sure I'd bother everyone around me ;)

Actually, it stays above the bust line as a necklace and doesn't bother. Also, if you look at the pics on the dress-form, you have you have to take into consideration that it has no shoulders. So it really doesn't poke at anybody when you wear it as a necklace. So glad you liked it!

Everything about this is stunning, and both DIYs are super clever. I'm about to steal this entire outfit.
