Hello everyone!

This is one of the last projects the big children make in kindergarten. It’s a very special one not only because they choose the colour and the way to decorate it but because they use it for their end-of-kinde ceremony.

For this craft you’ll need:

  • a piece of felt long enough to wrap round the child’s head.
  • a few pieces of felt in different colours from the main piece.
  • a pair of scissors suitable for cutting fabric.
  • a needle.
  • thread that has the same/similar colour to the main piece of felt.

Method:

  1. Measure the length of the felt according to your child’s head size. Cut one side of the main felt into a serrated edge (roughly 1/3 of the width).
  2. Fold the side with straight edge to the low point of the serration. Now we will see a folding line. At the top part of the folding line, arrange several pieces of felt in different colours as the jewels of the crown. Sew the “jewels” onto the crown.
  3. Fold the bottom 1/3 to the back of the crown and sew the edge with a running stitch to cover the thread from sewing the jewels.
  4. Sew the edges together to form a circle. (If your felt is too short, you can consider joining the edges together with an elastic band.) The crown is done!
