When I was editing these photos for this post as well as the felt unicorn from last week, I noticed how I just could not stop smiling. What is happier than a little princess with her own unicorn to ride and topped with this adorable felt and lace crown? This crown is very simple to make using one piece of 12×18 felt for the base, and three small pieces of felt for the flowers and leaves.
Tools
Materials
- Lia Griffith’s Wool Blend Felt — Light Peach, Carnation Pink, Rose Quartz, and Pistachio.
- Embroidery Floss — DMC Snow White (B5200)
- Elastic Ribbon
- Tiny Pearls and white thread
- Lace
I chose a crocheted style of lace for my crown though there are so many gorgeous choices that you can find at your fabric store in the trim or bridal department. To tie the crown onto the head I chose an elastic ribbon so that once tied it can be removed and replaced onto the head without having to retie, but still gives an option to resize for a smaller or larger head. The last two materials you will need is embroidery floss to do a blanket stitch around the edge and a string of tiny pearls for the final detail. You will see my tutorial for this simple to make crown below. Remember that every crown wearing princess needs her own magical felt unicorn. Stay tuned for the full princess birthday party coming up this spring! Cheers! ~ Lia

Leave a CommentThe felt colors you have are gorgeous, may I ask where you got them?!
Thanks! There are links in the post to colors available in our shop 🙂 https://feltpaperscissors.com/product-category/felt-sheets/
Hello,
I am a new member 🙂 and do not see a “pattern” for this crown. Step 1 says to fold the 12 x 18 felt in half to cut the 2 layers…would that be widthwise making the crown length 18″? Also, in the photos of the project steps, it looks like the bottom edge of the crown is curved a bit. Lastly, how tall is the crown in the photo?
Thanks in advance, probably overthinking this one!
Welcome, Kim! This was one of my very first projects several years ago (before I started adding templates to all my projects). But I did just update it with a few different size options. The original crown was 12″ wide and about 5″ high.
I am very bad at making patterns Is there one for your crown If so I have a Princess who needs one. If you could e mail it I would be very glad. You are very good at your crafts. Thank you.
Hi Della, we have a couple of different paper crown patterns in these posts https://liagriffith.com/?s=crowns&post_type=post
I love this! I know just the princess to make one for. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us!
And she will LOVE it!!
You have made a princess very happy :). Beautiful!
I guess I may have. 🙂
Would this fit both a 3 year old and an 8 year old? I’m not a sewer or a very crafty person, but I am going to make 2 for 2 little princesses. Lovely!!
Yes, they will. The beauty of using the elastic ribbon is that you can resize as needed too. When you cut the smaller crown, make sure it doesn’t overlap with the felt as you put it around her head. If it does, then just trim the width to allow a gap. They will love them. Share photos when you are done!!
Lia…you have outdone yourself on this one! I absolutely love it and have sent it on to my daughter in-law. You are so creative and I’m so grateful that you share the things you do. Great job!!!
Thanks Vickie! I am so looking forward to having grand kids one day too.
I am so glad you gave the crown pattern and directions. When I printed the directions for the unicorn I zoomed in on the crown so I could use that as a guide. But now I have directions. Thank you Lia
Oh good!! I think they make such a cute set too.
The princess crown needs a magic wand! I’ve seen crocheted star magic wands on line several times. It would be a perfect accessory for the crown.
We are on the same page there! There are magic wands in the making.
Oh Lia, I must say this the The loviest princess crown I have seen :). Such a pity I have no one to make it for
Thanks Vicki! Make it for yourself. 😉
