Heart Crowns.

 I always have a stash of paper plates in the art and craft cupboard as its such a versatile item that can be used in some many different ways and in so many different crafts. They are super cheap too! You can easily find them in the local supermarket and cost pennies!
Today we decided to make heart crowns. These are super easy but great fun. The girls enjoyed wearing their crowns all afternoon. Simply fold a paper plate in half draw a heart shape inside. Remember to leave a bit at the bottom to keep the heart attached to the rim of the plate! Cut out the heart shape and unfold the paper plate.

Now its time to decorate your crown. You could decorate it in many different ways. You could paint it, stick tissue paper on it, draw on it,colour it in, cover it in glitter and sequins. The choice is yours! 
The girls choose to decorate theirs with sequins so the covered it in glue and got sticking.
Once they were finished and it was dry you simply need to bed the heart up and forwards to it sticks up. Pop it on your head and you now have a beautiful simple, easy crown.

 Im pretty sure this would be easy enough to do with a star shape too if a heart is too girly!
