I’m so excited October is here and I’ve just finished up this year’s costume.

I glued additional embellishments to each of the top spokes of the crown:Īs well as the signature piece to the front that hangs down on the forehead: Here was the outcome of the front rhinestones: Then, I hot glued the rhinestones to the flat fronts of the plain earring studs. Note: I placed all the earring studs high enough that they wouldn’t poke into my forehead or anywhere else! This method worked great because it was easy to reposition any suds that I didn’t initially place well. I pushed the plain earring studs through the foam in the shape of the design I wanted for the front. I wasn’t sure the rhinestones would stick well when glued to the glitter foam paper, so I did the same thing to embellish the front as I did to reinforce the seems in the last step. I used hot glue to adhere them together, then used 4 of the plain earring studs to reinforce each of the seems. So, Piece 1 used for the front section, and Piece 2 I cut in half to attach to each side of the front, then velcro together in the back: I wanted the crown to be flexible, so I could tighten it to fit my head exactly. So I divided the graphic between the front and back sides. Since 1 piece of foam (11″) wouldn’t reach all the way around my head, I had to use 2 pieces of foam. Unfortunately, it didn’t cut the foam paper as well as I’d like, so I had to go back over the semi cut-out crown and finish cutting it with scissors. Here is the file I created to cut out the crown shape on my Circut: Steps:ĭraw out your crown shape to trace on the back of the glitter foam paper if you don’t have a Cricut. I got all my supplies at Hobby Lobby, but they don’t sponsor me in any way and I’m sure you can find similar items at any craft store. Rhinstone/crystal embellishments with flat backs.2 Sheets of Glitter Foam Paper – like this.Materials (the findings/embellishments can vary – this is just the unique way I put mine together – be creative with yours!): Whether you need a good witch costume for a Halloween party or costume contest or for a character in a Wizard of Oz play… Here’s How to Make Your DIY Adjustable Glinda the Good Witch Crown: I headed off to Hobby Lobby and found the perfect materials to make my own Glinda the Good Witch crown. So, I decided to create my own and made it fabulous. I ended up taking it in, but the crown itself was so flimsy and warped I couldn’t use it. Oh my goodness it was super huge on me (better than too tight!). I love store-bought costumes, and I got this Glinda costume from. This leads to day-of frantic searches in which Tad enlists my help – even though I’ve pestered him for weeks that Halloween is approaching. It’s funny because my husband tends to refuse to wear store-bought costumes because they don’t look authentic. ![]() (If you’ve poked around my blog, you may recognize my husband’s bulked up lion costume from the year before when we dressed up in a circus theme with our dog.) We were even finalists in a Halloween Costume Contest! She was Dorothy, her husband the Scarecrow, my husband was the Lion and I was Glinda the Good Witch. Which is why it’s pretty unbelievable that it took us 19 years to do a Wizard of Oz Halloween costume theme. My best friend’s favorite movie of all time is Wizard of Oz. ![]()
