​Royal Hairband

You'll need:

Wide hairband with black fabric;

Glue;

Acrylic paints of three gold shades: rich espresso, venetian gold, glorious gold;

Brush;

Glass-paper;

7 middle-sized perals and 4 small;

5 plastic flowers and 5 plastic roses;

5 big flowers;

35 very small plastic elements (butterflies, flowers 5 mm, beads of different shape 5 mm).

Instructions

Paint the hairband with rich espresso. Start painting from the center, gradually reducing the spray intensity. In this case, the edges of the hairband should remain black. Let dry for 1 hour.

Paint all beads, flowers and other decorative elements with gold color. Alternate three shades of gold paint, coloring elements to decorate the hairband. Paint large flowers, medium-sized plastic roses and the smallest elements (5 mm in size) with “golden espresso”, this will give the flowers a more vintage look. Color the remaining elements with a shade of “venetian gold”.

In order for the pearls and other beads to firmly adhere to the hairband, gently grind one side of the beads with glass-paper. It is with this side that we will stick every bead.

When the paint on the beads and hairband dries, you can start decorating. First, glue large flowers with an interval of 3-4 cm, then pearls, medium-sized beads and flowers to fill the space between large elements. Then fill the remaining open areas with small decorative elements. The sequence in this case does not matter, the more diverse, the better.
