The crown can be made not only from cardboard or paper, for this purpose also fit. A beautiful product will complement the overall look and give the boy an individuality and sophistication.

It is best to use cardboard in work. It is more dense and it will be better to keep its shape. A great idea is to use a template or an example of a beautiful product. Decorate the crown with artificial stones, which can be found in jewelry stores.

To do this, 1.5 teaspoons of gelatin is diluted with warm water and left to swell for 30 or 40 minutes. Next, the mass is heated in a water bath and the lace is placed there for half an hour.

Next, you need to make a cardboard base. The length of the part is equal to the length of the crown, the width will be about 10 cm. To make a cylinder, the ends are simply stapled with tape.

The lace is put on a paper base and placed in a microwave for 30-40 seconds at maximum temperature. Taking the product, apply a second layer of gelatin and again sent to the microwave. Such actions need to be repeated at least 7-8 times, until the crown becomes stiff enough.

The crown is removed from the cardboard base and dried in the microwave last time for about 30 seconds. When the product dries, it should be painted with a brush in gold or silver color. The crown is left to dry on a windowsill or open air. When the paint dries well, the finished product is decorated with light jewelry (rhinestones, beads, etc.).
