Welcome to this month's Blog with Friends post!! This month we are the Creative Cupids and will be bringing you tons of Valentine's Day fun!!
For my part, I will be showing you how to make these King and Queen of Hearts Crowns. Just because I used a sewing machine doesn't mean YOU have to. You can use a glue gun or fabric glue to achieve something similar.
WHAT I USED
Sheets of felt in Valentine's Day colors
Iron on interfacing
Iron on stars
Plastic gems
Flower trim
STEP 1
Cut one piece of felt in half.
STEP 2
Sew the ends together.
Fold in half and sew a long seam.
Turn right side out.
STEP 3
Take a sheet of felt and cut the interfacing to fit. Iron on the interfacing.
STEP 4
Fold the piece in half and cut out 1 large heart.
Repeat until you have 2 large hearts with interfacing and 2 large hearts without interfacing.
Then cut 2 smaller hearts with interfacing and 2 smaller hearts without interfacing.
In a different color, cut 4 hearts without interfacing. These will need to fit on top of 2 large hearts and 2 smaller hearts.
STEP 5
Now, take your hearts and put 1 interfaced heart with one heart without interfacing, matching up the sizes.
Sew together with a close zigzag stitch.
STEP 6
Place the other color hears on top and zigzag stitch in to place.
STEP 7
Measure the long thin piece to fit your child's head.
Cut and sew the ends together.
STEP 8
Add embellishments to the hearts.
STEP 9
With the pink crown, I cut 1 large heart with interfacing and 1 without. Then I cut 2 smaller hearts with interfacing and 2 without.
ALL DONE!!
Now! On to all the FABULOUS posts for this month's Blog with Friends!!!

I want one of these, and I'm not just wearing mine once a year, either!
ReplyDeleteLOL!!! Thank you, Karen!!!! :D
DeleteI have to say, they are actually comfy to wear. ;)
Gah!! I love these so much!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Robin!!!
DeleteI had so much fun making them!
These are so cute! You can even personalize them with names so no one fights over them 😉
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea, Jenn!!!
DeleteTHANK YOU!!!! :D
These are so cute. I wish that I was talented enough to sew. I have done a few things and they turned out great. I just don't sew very often.
ReplyDeleteThank you SO much!!!
DeleteYou should keep going! Practice makes better. (There's no such thing as perfect. LOL)
These are outstanding! I love that you offer the option for NOT sewing them - because dude, I don't sew. :)
ReplyDeleteLOL!! Thank you, Lydia!! I figured they would work just as well with hot glue or fabric glue!
