Where is the butterfly’s from? So pretty

[@twistedfrannie9311]

Out of all the crowns I've seen created, I like yours the best,not only the crown but your method of making it as well. I love how organized you are .....can you tell I have OCD? LOL.

[@xin4955]

I would TOTALLY love to see a make up tutorial for this, you look so beautiful. Pretty please? :)

[@ForgottenTrinkets]

Thank you! That's so kind of you to say. I don't think I'm terribly qualified to be giving advice on makeup (I seriously have no clue what I'm doing), but there are a couple of folks here on youtube that have amazing tutorials. Lisa Eldridge, and Miss Fame are some of my favorite makeup artists on youtube.

Xin totally agree😁💁‍♀️

How did you create the headband from the wire hanger?

[@googlethis313]

Aubrey Hicks I would bend the wire and use a head band I already owned as a template. Then just repeat making the second supporting wire the same width on the sides, but as high an arch I felt was needed to support the decorative aspect. I hope this helps. I’m not the channel owner but wanted to help. Hopefully you’ve already figured it out! Good luck and have fun!

BRAVO. SUPER.

How long were your original skewers

[@dayanamendoza5100]

Where can I buy a headband

[@fabricatious]

Very clever, but do we have to have the inane musac background and what's with the surf noise?

[@MoonBloodUnicorn]

What were the measurements for the spikes?

[@ForgottenTrinkets]

The longest spike is just under 6", but to be honest, I didn't measure while I was making it. I decided on the length by eye. I started out with center skewer quite long, held it to my head checking in a mirror if I liked the proportions, and trimmed it down bit by bit till I thought it seemed right in proportion to my head. I hope that's helpful :)

[@BeatrizMcLean]

I rather yours more ❤

[@TeraLangshaw]

What did you use to cut the skewers?

[@ForgottenTrinkets]

I used heavy duty wire cutters/pliers (same ones I use to form wire frames for fairy wings in another video if you want see what they look like) to cut mine, but I've also seen people use garden nippers, and regular scissors. I found it easiest to kind of cut part way through the skewer, then turn the skewer to score the wood all the way around, before cutting all the way through or just snapping it off with my hands. I found this helped prevent them from splitting and splintering as much, of course you still get the occasional skewer that doesn't want to cut cleanly, so its handy to have a couple extra just in case.

Omygod your nails!
